Damn you, Apple. Damn you to hell.
I was all set to simply get a new 1.8" hard disk and fix up my old iPod, and you foist the iPod Touch open me, thus stimulating my shiny-toy sensors.

Could be worse
Think of all those folks who waited on line for hours back in June to buy an iPhone...

Actually, these same folks can be counted on to upgrade as soon as possible to keep their status. eBay will be busy with iPhones.

Why? Too much scratch for too little storage
$50 US more for the 8gb model touch than for the 80gb classic.
Wireless isn't worth that. Sorry.

The phone...
...is not a goer unless it's 3G and on T-Mobile.
It's rumoured that O2 have it, and their data plans are shit. It's further rumoured that it won't be 3G.

Patience, grasshopper.
The iPhone is going to look like a TRS-80 in 2-3 years.
Cheers, Scott. (Who won't be interested in 3G until the battery/fuel cell/RTG/etc. life is substantially improved on the phones.)

Ah, yes.
They all do that. The shiny-gestalt is ever thus.
