Geoid Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Apple have released a whole new line of iPods, and the greatest thing is, its CHEAPER! than the old versions (I knew it was worth delaying my buying of an iPod Touch) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Oh dear. I saw this post last night, went and read about the new Ipods and though "so what - they are still overpriced - you pay for "cool" factor with I products NOT always functions (well not with the IPhone anyway!). I thought I could manage with my Tevion Ipod copy - lousy interface but MUCH BETTER plug and play, no special leads or chargers ets (I charge it in the car using my satnav charger). Then I Saw PURPLE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 OK Cancel that. I've seen the price! Man that thing is a rip off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Well,thats the girls Christmas pressies sorted then. D wants the blue & C the red I love it when a plan comes together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 They are sooo overpriced... that's more than I spend on the family at Christams! I have a Samsung MP3 player, which is brilliant - I got it on Amazon, one of their 'unboxed deals' and it is fab. A friend who regularly travels to the US and far east has offered to bring me back an ipod at a vastly reduced price .... we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I guess they will have those in Thailand in February along with iphones. They had the nanos everywhere last year in the department stores & much cheaper too. I'm loving the yellow & the pink. But I have a nano, so I'll spend my money on something else.

Geoid Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 They are pricey, the nano's are wayy too overpriced, but the iPod touch has gone down in price. Apple store today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoid Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 Got my iPod touch today, and im impressed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Fred,whats the advantage of the touch over the nano,apart from memory size? Would love to hear your opinions on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phonix Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I do like the new colours but must admit that I love the shape of my older squarer nano so much more. I think the only draw for me to the newer one would be the increased size. Im not a fan of the i-pod touch - sorry! Its just too big and chunky - I like something I can just slip in my pocket and forget its there other than the music coming from it! The only think I keep on mine is music and some photos anyway and I'd never be one to watch videos/films on it so I really couldn't justify spending that much money! xXx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoid Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 Fred,whats the advantage of the touch over the nano,apart from memory size?Would love to hear your opinions on it Massive screen, great for watching movies etc, wifi for e-mail and web, lots of downloadable apps etc. Post more later.

rachel19 Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 How can an ipod have a massive screen great for watching movies? Surely the whole idea is for them to be small and portable I have tv and stuff on my ipod and its rubbish trying to watch anything on a screen that small - surely its no bigger than the iphone and I wouldn't even want to watch anything on that!

Geoid Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 the screen is surprisingly big and clear, you have to use one to find out.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 yeah they have a "massive" screen. Its as useful as an Iphone I guess - still waiting for that N96 here - I don't want second best for a "cool" gadget that does less than my 18 month old N95! As for watching movies - thats what I bought a 42" telly for - oh no I'm just kidding. I don't watch movies! But Neighbours looks better on my telly than any Iphone or Ipod!

Geoid Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 Ok, maybe massive wasn't the right word, but it is massive compared to other ipods. Of course movies etc are going to look better on your 70" projector or whatever. But its a good little device. Im happy with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 still waiting for that N96 here - I don't want second best for a "cool" gadget that does less than my 18 month old N95!

Guest Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I think they are banned at all schools. And I guess so did M&S but I was talking to a class about those blazers and 2 of them had them! The rest were pretty envious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
