RemovableBait writes "Apple Computer plans to introduce more iPods before the end of the year", a company executive said Tuesday. From the article: Executive Vice President Tim Cook didn't say whether the new iPods will come at a press event Apple has scheduled for Wednesday morning.

      A iPod software developper friend told me he was writing coffee-making code.

    There's no such thing as too many choices. Perhaps grannies and parents will get confused, but that's why we have salesmen to hear them out, listen to their needs, then help them select the most expensive model in stock.

    Wait until Apple designs its own iPod phone, instead of that Motorola ROKR crap. I'm sure that they've got plans for it down the line.

    Personally, I'd rather have phone that actually makes good phone calls and an mp3 player that plays mp3s instead of depending on one device to do both, but that's just me.

    I hope if I ever get a "death sentence", it only lasts for a year and I get 30 billion dollars in the bank. That's the kind of death I could get into.

    The 1990's called -- they want "Apple is Dying" back.

  10. Please release a new one today, please! by ChePibe · · Score: 3, Funny

    My iPod just died for good last night (my own fault, really... shouldn't bang around a device like that as much as I did), and now my wife just feels really sorry for me. If they release a new one today, I can capitalize on her sympathy and talk her into letting me get one!

    Apple, please take note! If you don't release one today, my accountant... er... wife will never let me purchase one of your shiny white products! Her sympathy won't last forever, act today!

    I don't know about you, but, when it comes to electronics for Xmas or other presents,

    I make sure and give written descriptions and model numbers so they can get it right. I give lots of choices, but, I do help them out so as to make sure they get me what I really want...

    So far Apple have succeeded at beating them off.

    May I suggest that you, in the future, choose between the phrases "beating them back" and "fending them off?"
