    You can have my slightly-beat-up 40g iPod, with a tired battery, for TWICE that price.

    There.... 'most expensive' didn't last that long. :)

  3. Huh? How can it be the "most expensive"... by Fallen+Kell · · Score: 5, Funny

    ... when they havn't even ANNOUNCED the price? How do they know it will cost more then the Sun Enterprise 10000 that is sharing out MP3 files which are then decoded on a SunRay Thin Client and played for me at my desk? Huh? Huh? Riddle me that Batman...

    I could gold-plate a cow turd to create the most expensive cow turd in the world... but that doesn't make it any BETTER than any other piece of shit out there! Same goes for this MP3 player...

    I think the Elbonians go them beat. Esp. if you count in the cost of the tractor needed to move the Elbonian MP3 player...

    You know that Apple and Steve won't take this lying down. Just wait for the next product announcement. Apple WILL have the most expensive and overpriced technology, or Steve will personally scream at people until he does!

    No platinum. Fewer diamonds than a Victoria's Secret bra. Lame.
