# The AC adapter is no longer included with the iPod mini.
# The A/V cable is no longer included with the iPod photo.
Jerks.
The firewire cable I can kind of understand. USB is just a lot more common/popular.
But no AC Adapter with the Ipod mini? WTF? So they FORCE you to charge through USB or make you pay $30 for a charger? Fsck that!
wtf? no AC adaptor? that's stupid.

You guys do realize you can charge it through the USB cable.....that's what I do with my iPod right now.

$249 -> $199? that's pretty impressive. If you factor in the ac adapter at $30(?) you still come about ahead. The mini never came with the firewire cable in the first place.
I have a 3g, going to wait for the 5gen to upgrade.
Besides, now that you can finally charge the iPod though USB 2, neither the firewire cable or the AC adapter are necessary anymore.

The firewire I'd agree with. The power adapter is still infinitely more usefull than charging over USB for anyone that travels often though.

6 gigs and 18 hours (assuming it gets that much) is a hell of an upgrade over the 4 gig and 8-10 hours the current mini's get for the same price.
I'm impressed. And there still isn't a better UI out there IMHO.
Obviously its better but still not quite up to par for the $. Just shows you how greedy apple is.
