Oh my…new iPods

The new iPod Photo by Apple. It comes in both 40 and 60 gig sizes, and integrates with iPhoto. Comes with software onboard to attach to a TV and display photos, complete with soundtrack of your choosing. 65k-color screen, 220 by 176 pixel resolution, Click Wheel, and 15-hour battery life.
The Limited Edition U2 iPod. Seriously swank.
These iPods all have serious drool factor. The 60 gig is delightful (I never, ever thought I would fill up the 40 gig I got for graduation, but the sad truth is that it’s full). The photo abilities I could take or leave…if it auto-sync’d with different digital cameras, or had a built in media card reader…that would be killer. As it is, it is really, really pretty, but the storage is what I’m about. I suppose I’ll wait patiently a year or so for the 100 gig model.
