New iPods out

Wifi, but still less space than the Nomad. Lame.

Still more space than my mini. I'm probably going to be all over this like white on rice. Looks like a lot of fun, and I don't really have much music, but my mini is full as of last week. And it looks like crap. I think it's time to update.

The question, of course, then becomes "How much space do I actually need on this thing?"

I've got a 30GB 5G iPod, and it still (barely) holds my entire music collection, plus photos and videos. However, any particular scrutiny of what I actually listen to would yield that I generally find myself listening to maybe three or four albums over the course of a week. Perhaps a little more if I'm roadtripping, perhaps a little less if I'm perpetually in front of my MacBook (which generally means I'm not using my iPod). I was looking at an 8GB nano before, particularly for the battery life and lack of hard drive (the latter of which did in my much-loved 20GB 4G); I imagine I can most definitely survive on sixteen gigs (which, mind you, is a little more than half of my music, photos, and movies; I bet I can pare it down a bit more if I wanted to).

Throw in YouTube videos and Safari, and I'm there with bells white earbuds on.
