Re: iPod G6 - Apple event slated for September 5th

The lack of digital radio is disappointing. It would be nice if I could listen to live365.com and buy a song that I'm listening to.

I doubt I'll ever be in a Starbucks and use that feature. It'll be available in NYC come October.... so outside of us and Seattle, no one is even going to get a chance to use it for a while

I think if iphone/ipod can support flash and some other media we'll see a web 2.0 program to do that. I think its a matter of time for a 3rd party to do it. I don't think we'll see apple develop a program to listen to internet radio.

Re: iPod G6 - Apple event slated for September 5th

It just doesn't make any sense... you can already do it in iTunes.

It's obvious Apple supports it... incorporating it into the iTouch was the biggest omission, IMO.

The web browser NEEDS Flash support. Probably the only thing really missing.

I heard its just a deal Adobe and Apple are trying to come to terms on

I hope it's not an expensive deal that will be passed along to the user. Flash player plugins have always been free....

Re: iPod G6 - Apple event slated for September 5th

So, those who have the iPhone, how is it? Worth the $400? I want a new phone, but not sure. I really haven't even checked into it and I have no idea the features etc...
I might get the big iPod classic though...probably wait until closer to Christmas. I have the nano, but it doesn't hold enough. I got it for the small slim design and to use while running workingout etc... I need something bigger.

If you can afford $400, there is no reason not to have it

Go watch the videos on apple.com and then go play with one in either an AT&T store or an Apple store. We could sit here and talk about all the stuff it does and how cool it is, but it's just one of those things that's 100 x's better when you are controlling it.

The question is what do you want to get an ipod/iphone for? To have all your music or to have a phone?

The iPhone is one of the best buys out there right now with the $200 price drop. Great all in one gadget. Just know your monthly bill will be no less than $70.

If you just want your media, I'd go with the classic.

I'm personally go overboard and pick up the new iPod Touch 16 gb bad boy...

Want a new phone and it would be nice to have a phone and my music all in one, but I don't know...

Eh, I really don't buy that the gap of an iPhone to say like a Cingular 8125 is that huge of a difference. Full browser capabilities... that's about the only huge thing that I can think of.

Re: iPod G6 - Apple event slated for September 5th

Questions... What is this new Ipod Touch thing? Do you have to pay for a service once you buy it? Can it be used as a PDA?
