Video iPod mock-up in News of the World today

[eva01]

i cant believe that apple would develope a product that would be ANTI left handed. most of mac users are creative types which tend to be left handed.

just the fact that it wouldnt lend itself to be suitable for left handed people makes me wonder.

well you know back in the good old days they used to tie lefties up to the post and burn them at the stake.

ah i miss those days

left = sinister in latin which means a type of demon

cheers for the link. The right sided design needn't eclude lefties, all it would need is an option to set to left handed mode and voila the whole thing is reversed. Or better still a built in sensor detects which way up it is and automatically flips it.

Well the last 5 iPod announcements (not including iPod shuffle) have been flawed. iPod should be futurisitc! I have no idea why they went from the perfect 3rd gen iPod and then just took the second gen iPod and painted the wheel grey. There was NOTHING on the 4th gen iPod that was new from the 3rd gen iPod except for adding the tactile buttons; a step backward.


I hope they ditch the stupid ClickWheel! (Although it is great for branding people who wanted iPods because they were "hot" rather than actually wanting one).

I agree with you I thought everything being touch sensitive was so much cooler

It would be kind of odd, I think, for Apple to release a product (like an ipod video) and have it look exactly like the ipod nano.

I mean anyone and their brother could photoshop this ****... so Apple is going to release something and have the general public say:

"Yeh, that's how we thought it would look...."

The 4th Generation was a huge leap over the 3rd... One man's opinion here as is yours, flawed as it is however. The 4th generation made things simpler and cleaned up the lines of the iPod. I would have left the wheel white, but hey I don't work for Jobs.
