so the iTV will be downloading 720p content from iTunes rather than the sub-DVD quality they're using now? That might actually be worth $300 if the DL costs aren't ridiculous.

keep using my free phone from work or pony up for iPhone and Cingular. Hmmm...

Bearing in mind I am anything but an early adopter, and bearing in mind I can't wait weeks let alone months because my current ipod battery lifetime is down to under an hour, was yesterday a dumb day to buy an ipod?

And if so, why?

I'm a bit confused. Are there new widescreen normal iPods too, or do you have to buy this magic thing?

― stet (stet), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 17:53 (seventeen years ago) link

Mark - I should get a new battery fitted to your old iPod and get a refund on your new one.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 17:53 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm kinda glad my old iPod from 2002 finally died recently. Perfect timing!

Can't wait for the first time someone scratches the hell out of his $400 iPhone when he puts it in the same pocket as his keys.

Sigh. So I should definitely return it then? What will I be able to get instead?

A whole lot of Christmas iPods on ebay, I'd think.

― stet (stet), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 17:55 (seventeen years ago) link

9:53 am sim card

Good. I was moderately afraid that this thing would be CDMA

― Elvis Telecom (Chris Barrus), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 17:55 (seventeen years ago) link

Mark, seriously - get a new battery. It's daft to chuck an iPod just cause that's died. You can get them fitted for about £40 or do it yourself (a bit tricky) for £10.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 17:55 (seventeen years ago) link

9:56 am smooth.

― ledge (ledge), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 17:57 (seventeen years ago) link

if iTV downloads are 720p/1080i, under $10, and include everything disney/miramax/paramount can bring, then they just murdered both HD disc formats, a year earlier than I thought.

they also make xbox 360's live IPTV service and whatever Vista is going to offer in the vein look fucking inept and stupid, again. Jesus.

― TOMB07 (TOMBOT), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 17:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh my god I'm very excited. I passed up the opportunity to get both a new ipod and a new phone this xmas (both of which i need)

Except downloading HD movies takes a hell of a long time with most connections today.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 17:59 (seventeen years ago) link

Beatles for iTunes was late november IIRC

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 17:59 (seventeen years ago) link

This ipod is three years old, beaten up and has a LOT of idiosyncracies. I think it's had a good innings and now I need a new one. So, where and when can I buy this shiny thing with a big screen?

― === temporary username === (Mark C), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:00 (seventeen years ago) link

cingular logo on top == not in UK.
