Shoud I wait to get an iPod?

[xEDIT409]

Should I wait to get my iPod until the that MacWorld expo thingy is over with?

JIC they bring up perhaps 4th gens or maybe improved battery life...

 

[ReiAyanami]

they say they gonna have $100 ipods soon, but if it uses proprietary battery, screw dat

xEDIT409, personally, I'd hold off till the battery issue is worked out IMO.

How long have you owned your iPod?

 

[Soybomb]

I'm so tired of the battery thing, the battery is $50, damn get over it and its probably going to last you for about 3 years.

The ipods great, I love mine, I'll be surprised if the minis are more than rumors though.

Soybomb, considering that the iPod hasn't been out for 3 years, I'd be worried.

According to this article, no new Ipods will be announced during MacWorld.

And so what if it hasn't, the rating is for a number of charge cycles, not years.

How about owning one before yapping?

if u use standard batteries, u wouldn't have to worry about running out of battery because u'd have fully spares. whereas the ipod u'd have to dock it and charge it fully all the time to get max battery life when u go on a trip

a pair of 1900mAh's go for $4 tops

WTF is your issue coldcut?

 

[RaiseUp]

Nope. Who cares about the battery. When it dies , it dies, just "BUY" a new one.

Yeah, what's your issue, coldcut? :evil:

 

[speg]

I'm waiting for the annoucement. I'd wait if I were you.

 

[xEDIT409]

I really want to get my iPod soon... but nothing would piss me off more if I get it and then at the little expo thingy, they announce the rumored improved battery life or 4th Gens...

btw... dont care much for the minis..

The strange thing is, coldcut hasn't posted in this thread at all.

lager = coldcut.


Also, i would wait until after MWSF. They will not be announcing the 4th Gen (still a few months off for that), but they may be reducing prices of the current lineup. I would wait. What's a few days?

So now we're making excuses for a company to charge more for an inferior product with faulty componants? Wow. Hail Apple... they've douped consumers once again, and the consumers like it!

Explain how their product is "inferior".
