Try the excuse that it costs $500. Honestly, the pricing of Apple products is getting ridiculous. $500 is too much for a music player. Sure you can surf the internet and get e-mail, but for the same price you could pick up a PS3 (which is also insanely priced for its target market). If we keep paying the ludicrous prices companies are charging for electronics, no one will be able to afford anything.
