Apple's other announcement

Email This Entry

Posted by Matt May

While everyone was busy checking to see that their podcast is in the iTunes directory (mine's not. All that bribery for nothing. hmph.), Apple had more news that speaks to the pod in podcasting.

All new large-capacity iPods are now iPod Photos. A 20GB iPod Photo is now available for $299, with the 60GB down to $399. (If you follow Apple's RSS instructions properly, you may even get your logo to come up on those cute little displays.) The 1GB iPod Shuffle has also dropped to $129, which leads one to wonder if a price drop on the iPod mini is in the near future.

In addition, college students who buy an iMac, iBook or PowerBook will get an iPod mini for free in the bundle. I am so ignoring this, having bought a new PowerBook yesterday when I could have bought one with my wife's college ID today...
