Apple Event - January 27th

[HotelUser]

Underwhelming, yes, but so was the first iPhone. Apple always do crap like this. Hopefully its reasonably priced.

Have you ever met Apple

[Recursion]

The iPhone wasn't at all? I know at the time it wasn't open to developers but it was a "holy crap" phone?

Indeed it was.

And it won't be fairly priced, it'll be a rip off in the states and then nearly doubled over here in the UK.

iPod Touch
Capacity: 16GB
Screen: 3.5inch
Clock speed: 833MHz, underclocked to 600MHz
Battery life: 6-22 Hours
Price: £150

If its over £500 then it is a total rip

It all depends if its reasonably priced, If its not then I'm going to be sooo underwhelmed. No mention of an iPhone update yet. Probably won't happen at all now.

This is for the 16GB Model.

£0-£250 - Cheap
£250 - £400 - Reasonable
£400 - £500 - Pricey
£500+ Too Expensive.

I own an iPod Touch and a Macbook, I need a low price to make me want to buy this.

It may actually surprise you, but given the current exchange rate there is really only a slight difference between prices in the states and here in the UK now, this is because of how weak the £ has become and how strong the $ has come, and the fact that I was recently in the states and couldn't really pick up any bargains at all, were more or less the same prices as back home. (was only getting $1.50 for the £)

I purposely came on today to see what happens, and so far all I've seen is what looks like an iPod Touch XL with underwhelming technology. The name's pretty lousy too :/ Would it work the same way as a NetBook, or is really just an App Device? Because as far as the Windows operated "planned" devices are set out, they work similar to normal PCs and laptops, except the same power as a NetBook...

iBooks? wow :rolleyes:

[MrPinkPanther]

Do you know what annoys me? Before it was announced when sites were calling it a "Giant iPhone without the phone". I just think...errr...its a giant iPod touch then...
