I am revolting against iPod's constant reinvention by sticking with my cute 15GB that has the little circles under the (non-color) screen.
However, it's still an iPod. I guess they win either way.
Here is an interesting article on the iPod losing its coolness. some very good points, as I see every Tom Dick & Harry (haha I can't believe I just used that phrase) on the subway with one, even if they're panhandling for loose change. But... what could possibly replace that iconic sight of the white cables going into your pocket?
So, imagine now that 1 GB of memory, +battery, can be packed into a space as tiny as that new shuffle. Imagine where we'll be in a year. It'll be wireless [updating whenever you walk by your computer, if necessary, and sending your music to wireless earbuds (try not to lose those)] and solar powered. All built into your wallet or your keychain. No more white cords. Sad...
