Apple Updates iPod

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the lookit-the-pretty-colors dept.

TheRaven64 writes "Apple seems to have quietly updated the iPod Photo and iPod Mini lines. The Mini now comes in 4GB and 6GB flavours, priced at $199 and $249 respectively. The iPod Photo now comes in a 30GB flavour for $349 - only $50 more than the 20GB iPod with a mono screen and shorter battery life."

  1. When will they update the firmware for old iPods? by Radres · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    When will they update the old iPod firmware to add the shuffle feature to the main menu?

    You are right. But that's the power of money. Slashdot furious that everyone blocks their ads with adblock had to a new find a way of funding bandwidth...

    either that or they are just suckers for Apple stuff. I am a long time Mac user but I just feel physically sick when I see people going gooey over anything with an Apple logo on it. It's really fucking sad. Most of these people who idolise Apple hardware like some subtle variation in the iPod don't really use Macs properly or know anything about them. They just buy them and look at them and check their email and stuff and download songs whatever. They don't actually do any work with Apple stuff.

    Unfortunately Jobs has done this.

    ..who thinks that ALL iPods are over expensive, over-rated players? Sure they look neat but every feature is now duplicated elsewhere and in nice packages and lower prices.

    Around here, iPods are gay.
