Apple Updates iPod

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."

Re:When will they update the firmware for old iPod

[WormholeFiend]

They did. They called the update the iPod Shuffle and it comes in its own separate player.

They dropped the 40GB mono model...

No problem, according to its specs it can be dropped without much damage.
I accidentally dropped mine one week ago and it still works like a charm. ;)

Flavo(u)r?

Hmmm... mine only comes in a weird plastic flavor. Sort of tastes like my cell phone... a little bit.

The Gold mini was determined to have too much bling for mere mortals.

You're welcome

You can all thank me. It wouldn't have happenned without me.

You see, I just passed the return period on my new monochrome 40 gig. Therefore, new models are automatically released.

That's my exact problem everytime I look at buying a Mac product... I keep thinking "Well, for just $50 more I can get <insert thingie here>.

Where the heck do you live? In New York, it'll cost you a lot more than fifty bucks to insert thingy here.

I'm not sure I would define a product that doesn't come with a keyboard, mouse or screen as "complete". Perhaps if all you want to do is admire your $449 white brick, the mac mini is complete.

Screens, keyboards, mice, leads, etc. all disturb the minimalist aesthetic associated with Apple products.

I just leave mine on top of a solitary perspex cube in the centre of my living room. I can't turn it on or use it at all (power leads are *so* ugly) but it makes a powerful expression of my place in society and position on the Apple purchasing ladder.
