Come on everyone, y'all are saying it sucks before you have even held it in your hand. I mean 5GB in a little tiny thing like that, it's amazing. I don't see anyone else making something like that. Do you?

heh

This is hilarious. If only they knew....

Netphorians of 2020 will mock the archived netphorian thread from 2015 where we are all impressed by Ihaman's 1TB iPhone.

All that hype for an MP3 player? Break-thru digital device? The Reality Distiortion Field™ is starting to warp Steve's mind if he thinks for one second that this thing is gonna take off.

This isn't revoltionary!
I still can't believe this! All this hype for something so ridiculous! Who cares about an MP3 player? I want something new! I want them to think differently!
Why oh why would they do this?! It's so wrong! It's so stupid!

That's a pretty good place to start, though! 6 years later and everyone and their brother owns an iPod. God, why would they do such a thing?! Reading this stuff is pretty humbling, actually.

THIS IS QUITE TRUE.
I was thinkign I need to buy a laptop with a fast connection in order to download songs. And then to earn money to be able to support these habits. Plus, I have to find clothes to go with my ipod!

Seriously? I just keep mine in my pocket when it's playing. Why would I want my clothes to match it?
