I just saw this on www.macrumors.com

Very cool. I think I am going to buy one when they come out on Monday.

According to this they said it might be even cheaper than the 3g ipods. That would really help me out.

Those are some ugly glasses.. Maybe I just lack excitement for another revision of the iPod. Maybe they worked on audio quality.

According to Think Secret the new ipods will be

*1 mm thinner (whoppie doo)

*12 hours battery life (thats really good)

*Will feature a $100 reduction in price (20 gb model is now $269)

Quote:

The new iPod models also include "more efficient menus," such as a top-level "Music" entry and single-click shuffling of music libraries; users can also create multiple on-the-go playlists and delete individual songs from them. In addition, the story says that audiobooks are easier for users to find and can take advantage of features that play audio at slower or faster speeds while maintaining natural-sounding playback.

Hmm.. I'm going to have to go play with these at the apple store. If they're any better, I may have to sell my (very new) iPod on E-Bay and get a new one. Hmmmmm.

Does anyone know if these new iPods are windows compatible?

Re: New iPod!!!
 
The current ones are, so I'd assume these are.

It'd be a really bad business move to make them NOT Windows compatible, so I'd assume they are as well.

I assumed so as well, just want to make sure before I put that on my wish list.

Plus the new ones will have 60 gig, if not the launch ones, right after launch (like before Xmas)

i hope to get one soon. i really like how convenient they are.
my friend on my robotics team has one, and whenever i could, i'd steal it and listen to it while i worked.
he'd always yell at me, saying "what're you doing with my iPod?!"
funny stuff.

Re: New iPod!!!
 
Now this will really be the test if the iPod and the iPod mini are hitting seperate markets. There will only be a $20 difference between the 4gb iPod Mini and the 20gb iPod.

I just have one question, how do you scroll? Won't you hit the buttons?

If the scroll wheel on it is anything like the 3g iPod like I have, it's a very sensitive touch pad. The slightest pressure around the wheel will make it move. For the buttons it takes a greater amount of force in that specific area to click the wheel to the top, bottom, left, or right. I've never used an iPod Mini and have never seen one so I'm not quite sure what the click-wheel is like.
