My Two Cents

It takes everyone by surprise on how meticulously Apple plans the features on their products. The photo iPod has a TV out which can optimize photos for 4;3 or 16:9 resolutions. You can create photo presentations with complete music from iPod.

Ok. Can you think of the obvious future of the iPod? From a simple photo player, I see it graduating to a complete video player with hours of video storage. Or expect soon an iPod with a camera (5 mega pixel and optical zoom?). All this could happen in the next one year.

Incidentally, this also makes me postpone my iPod purchase till next year. J

Apple iPod Photo

This new variant of iPod doesn’t excite me too much, because now it asks me to buy it. Sometime back, I told myself that I will buy an iPod when the display goes color. Not only it has gone color, it shows all your photos too. That is typical Apple style.

In my current financial position, all I can do is download the new iTunes 4.7 and listen to some music on the tinny speakers on my laptop.
