Review of Dell's Digital Jukebox
bu115hit writes "Tom's Hardware has a review of Dell's Digital Jukebox. The quick summary is that Dell has provided their own version of an iPod in size and shape, and they gave it better battery life. However, it seems the iPod is still a superior product overall, for ease of use if nothing else."
What is the point of these types of reviews? Everyone knows the Dell DJ is a piece of shit. It's like comparing... ah fuck it I wouldn't know.
You know, overreacting aside, I find Apple's choice in regards to the iPods battery very odd.
I look at my Sony Clie and my GBA-SP. Both have a tiny little screw that holds the battery cover on. Both my Clie and the GBA-SP are smaller than the iPod, and yet they still managed to provide user-access to the battery.
I haven't seen the miPod up close yet, but I imagine they don't have a battery cover either.
I think Apple just doesn't like screws.. they're definately anti-screw. Maybe it's because Apple hasn't discovered a way to make them glow yet.

Don't you know why iPod mini colors were chosen?

You know, I find Apple in this areviews. I think at my is no object.
twice the battery life
For a commuter on a budget
What commuter needs ~16 hours of battery life between recharges? Someone who lives in L.A. and works in Tokyo?
dude box? Is that like a man pussy?
Do you even lift?
These aren't the 'roids you're looking for.
The freedom to not own an iPod?
What we really need in the review is some objective data on whether an Apple or Dell is better at helping you pick up the evening's companion at the gym.

BetaMax failed for one reason alone:
Sony tried to control content.
The choice boiled down to:
VHS- pr0n
Beta- pretty picture
It's obvious which one the american consumer cares more about.
But what about my +2 iPod of strength and my +1 Headphones of Music? Then it's a perfect 10, and it's perfect sounding assuming the minijack doesn't make it's saving throw.
