summary:
? improved battery-performance, now up to 12 hours playing time possible
? playlists can be processed also on the way now
? price reduction of up to 100 dollar per model
? no entrance model with 15 GB anymore, called are only 20 and 40 GB
? slightly changed operation, click-wheel like iPod mini
altogether it's a rather quiet upgrade as a really large revision. i personally was waiting for being able to process playlists on the way without having to use my mac for that.

The box said "requires Windows 98 or better"... so I bought a Mac.

But at the same time hoping that the upgrades wouldn't be too great to make me want to upgrade from my lovely sexy 40GB 3G ipod |

Did you guys just see the article on MacMinute? They showed some Apple corporate dude saying they won't have 60 GB iPods anytime soon. Maybe they'll release it at MacWorld SF along with Gen 2 iPod minis.

For the extra storage I bet a lot would spend $250-300 USD ?200-250 EUR or so on it.
I have a feeling Apple will release the new features for G3 iPods once the G4 sales start settling down to a normal rate.

Bah, mine is the 1G 5GB iPod. I can't decide if I should spend $100 less on the 40GB for 5GB of music and the rest to back up important files, OR if I should wait for the 60GB for $500 to put 5GB of music on it with a entire ghost image of my Hard Drive. |
