The new 5.5G iPod Arrives...
...And I am dissapointed to say the least. After all the hype and
publicity this things been getting, you'd think Apple would offer
their customers something new and groundbreaking, similar to what the
1G did a few short years ago. Don't give up hope though, apparantely
the "Real" next generation iPod is dropping next year, but I'm not
holding my breath. Nevertheless, a few key improvements have been made
to the new 5.5G The screen is now 60% brighter, the battery can last
up to 3.5 hours during video playback, and the iPod includes new
headphones, but otherwise the specs remain the same. As for software,
the iPod is finally getting gapless playback, text-based search and
brightness controls, along with a whole slew of games. The 'Pod has
Bejeweled, Cubis 2, Mahjong, Mini Golf, Pac Man, Tetris, Texas Hold
'Em, Vortex, and Zuma bundled, and you can nab new games for $5 each
off of iTunes. Maybe the best news is that Apple is dropping the
prices and bumping the storage: you can get a spankin' new 30GB iPod
for $250, and the new 80 gigger for $350. No word yet on availability.
