So there is a lot of talk about the new iPod, the one capable of playing video, as a flop, for a wide variety of reasons. Apparently it is common belief that people will not want to buy an iPod for video.
As I have said before, they might have a point. In no way do I believe that this will mean that the new iPod will be a flop. Indeed, while I do not think I will use the video capability, I want one of the new iPods.
Why?
1) Larger capacity.
2) Thinner.
3) Better screen.
Oh, and what is the cost for people? The same as the old 20GB.
So they are getting a better iPod for the same price, and people think it will fail because it includes another feature, as well?
Even if the video capabilities are never used, the new iPods are still a great deal.
