So when does Apple roll out the 80GB or even the 120GB touch ipod? Who the hell knows but I will tell you that the 8 and 14 is not enough to hold my music and videos. It would be so great to be able to swap hard drives but it can never be that easy. I just hope the 80GB will be available in time for Christmas
Rumors are swirling about a release soon but the price of this device might run as high as an entry laptop. Prices may start at $500 but thats speculation. I don't mind waiting though while they figure out the screen and safari issues.
Have you seen that Sirius commercial how it's one step ahead? Im not sure it holds that much MP3's if any. Actually, heres some details:
Sirius Stiletto vs Ipod Touch
-True Portability. The Sirius Stiletto will have a built-in antenna that allows reception of Sirius' signal without the need for an external car-dock or home-dock.
-Antenna/headphones included. For supplemental reception, you get a Sirius antenna strapped to your noggin - included with the Stiletto.
-100 hours of Storage. The Sirius Stiletto handles MP3/WMA, and allows you to intermingle Sirius content with your own digital music collection. The Stiletto supports Microsoft's PlaysForSure protocol.
-WiFi Capability. The interface (pictured to your right) looks very similar to the Zing interface as SBS points out. I'd it's not too far of a guess to say that the Stiletto is using the Zing's WiFi technology - allowing you to stream Sirius online when you're in a hotspot.
-Battery Life. Two batteries are included with the packaging. One standard, and one extended life, which offers 4 hours of live SIRIUS reception, 14 hours of WiFi reception, and 22 hours of stored playback time. (The wording is a little fuzzy here - are these numbers from the standard battery? extended battery? or both?)
-Cost. The Sirius Stiletto will MSRP for $399.99.
Hmm...probably not enough to scare the iPod family.
