New iPod!



"... Computer users have discovered that its vast storage space makes it a useful vault for huge digital files—the makers of the "Lord of the Rings" movies used iPods to shuttle dailies from the set to the studio." - Newsweek 
 
How awesome is that? Very awesome I say (but not in the way God is awesome ... doesn't even come close).  The new iPod is slimmer and incorporates the 4 buttons (menu, play/pause, next and previous) into the scroll wheel itself a la iPod Mini.  It will also cost on $100 less for each version(40GB - $399 and 20GB - $299) and will have 50% better battery life (from 6 hours up to 12).  The only thing it is missing now is WiFi (not that the RIAA would let that happen ... unless it is encrypted, hmmm).
