looks really cool... that said, probably no.

Apple is in line for a disappointment, and this has too many "cute" things.

I agree specs don't sound that good.  16gb-64gbs?

MadTV did a sketch that lanced this one over three years ago...

Not sure what this offers that my current netbook does not.

Probably not. I have an iTouch and an laptop. The iTouch is more portable, and it would be nice to have something easier to carry than a laptop, but it would be more annoying to type on (am I always going to look down?) than my laptop.

I think it starts at $499.

Nope.  I've bought store brand mp3 players.  They've worked just as well, and don't make you install I-tunes.

I'll get one for sure.  Price is acceptable, and it's perfect for travel, or trips to the cafe.

Interesting. I'm a little underwhelmed, but would like to see it in person. Ok enough prices, except the huge upgrade for a 3G in it.

You mean you don't get to install and use itunes. We have other MP3 players in addition to our ipods, and Itunes makes for a lot easier download, sync and management of content. There may be other software out there that is as easy to use, but I have yet to see it.

Apple is slowly winning me over, first with the nano (mine's still going strong after >5 years) and now my Iphone. Not sure I have a use for the Ipad now, but if the need develops I wouldn't hesitate.

That seems to be the standard response from women.  Apparently, it's the menstrual product of the FUTURE!

The other thing I'm not crazy about is the price for the 3g service.  So you have to pay extra for the unit and also for the service.  Seems like a lot to me.  Good concept but where I am financial wise doesn't seem good to me.
