Re:Am I the only one who realizes...
If I have to type in the apple, I think it is even more relevant.
You don't have to type in apple... ipod.com will redirect you there just fine. -
Why is 20 gigabytes generous?Why is 20 gigabytes generous? You can buy an iPod with 20 gigabytes for $299.
Hewlett-Packard (HP) is second-sourcing the iPod. So, if you buy an iPod, you get the combined support of 2 American companies: HP and Apple.

Re:Good news!
No, go price out a PC notebook with all the bells and whistles that you want. What if you don't need firewire? Most people don't.
Yeah, sure, most people have absolutely no need to use the most popular digital music player of the world. -

Re:Why no USB then (Apple PC required)?
Apple is subsidizing the cost of this player in order to promote the Apple Computer. From Apple's iPod spec page:
Requirements
- Apple computer with built-in FireWire port
- Mac OS 9.2.1 (or later) or Mac OS X v10.1 (or later)
- iTunes 2 software (included)
So basically, you wind up paying less than what Apple is putting into the product for the sheer promotion of Apple's other products. However, I'm sure that some l337 h4x0r will figure out how to make this work with real PCs and Apple will cancel the whole program. -
Re:iPod = $399 + Apple PC
There's no "bzzzt" about it. Apple lists the requirement for the Apple Computer in the specs at the official iPod site. To quote:
Requirements - Apple computer with built-in FireWire port
- Mac OS 9.2.1 (or later) or Mac OS X v10.1 (or later)
- iTunes 2 software (included)
