September 5, 200719 yr comment_48151 I like the new classic, metal casing and 160gigs is not a bad deal for $350. The nano is kinda nice I guess but I'm not interested in that little storage space. The touch is an utter joke. Report
September 5, 200719 yr Author comment_48153 If only the iPod had native FLAC and/or drag-and-drop support, it would make the Classic utterly enticing. Otherwise, it's too much of a hassle for me to use. (Even though I use Rockbox, its GUI is way too ugly.) My library is in FLAC, so I can either directly import it (if it supported FLAC) or have Foobar convert FLAC files on the fly (if it supported drag-and-drop). Report
September 5, 200719 yr comment_48155 Not too thrilled with any of them. If only the iTouch had more space. Report
September 5, 200719 yr comment_48163 The new classic is probably my next Ipod. Although I'll be keeping a watchful eye on the refurb store since it would stand to reason that the old 80gig model should be less than the new especially if it's a refurb. Report
September 5, 200719 yr comment_48168 I literally JUST bought a 2GB nano, so I'm returning it this weekend, and I just ordered a 4GB nano for the same price. Report
September 5, 200719 yr comment_48169 i'm still perfectly happy with my 60 gb video. Yeah, I'm still on a 3G 20gig, which is woefully too small and sooooooooo black and white. Report
September 5, 200719 yr comment_48173 My 5G 60GB Video running Rockbox has been great, but I have to remove music to put new music on. That wasn't tough for a while... There was a lot of stuff I didn't miss. But now it's getting tougher and tougher. Thankfully I'm not in a position where I can even consider an iPod upgrade right now, so it's not even an issue Report
September 5, 200719 yr comment_48185 guess the imod 5g is obsolite I hear the upcoming v-dock + iTouch will rival $1750 CD players. Report
September 5, 200719 yr comment_48186 I really was hoping the new touch-screen ipod will be able to replace my iPod and Palm (it's a bit of a pain to use Palm with Mac), but that won't be happening unless they drastically increase the storage space on the touch. Report
September 5, 200719 yr comment_48208 I hear the upcoming v-dock + iTouch will rival $1750 CD players. Just for trose, we should call that combo the iTouch myself at night. Report
September 5, 200719 yr comment_48212 And the mass sale of previous gen iPod begins - I count 14 or so for sale on the first page of source FS sub-forum on HF. Report
September 6, 200719 yr comment_48239 And the mass sale of previous gen iPod begins - I count 14 or so for sale on the first page of source FS sub-forum on HF. Sweet, now if only those damn 325s would sell! Report
September 6, 200719 yr comment_48255 dam i just got my vide 80 gig ipod a month ago. 160 gigs for the same price, bleh. whatever they come out with new ones every 6 months. if u need to get a new one to be cool, your gay. The touch one looks like its for people who are too cheap to buy an iphone but want to still look super awesome. Report
September 6, 200719 yr comment_48268 you should say they sound really good with the iMod, then they would sell. I'm a whore but I ain't no ho! Report
September 6, 200719 yr comment_48343 I put an order in for the 160GB model earlier today. I've been using a 60GB iPod photo at work for a few years now so this seems to be the ideal upgrade for me. Hope the DAC and line out are half decent at least. Report
September 7, 200719 yr comment_48756 Well I think I'm finally going to be replacing my 3G 10gb iPod with the 160gb iPod Classic. Report
September 7, 200719 yr comment_48793 It's tempting to sell my 80GB for the 160GB, but I haven't been it much lately so I can't see how to justify the expense. I think the iPod Touch is actually pretty cool. Once the price comes down and the storage goes up I can see this replacing the nano line or even the classic line entirely. Wi-fi access iPod with big screen and 200GB of storage...yeah I'd go for that. Report

Once the price comes down and the storage goes up I can see this replacing the nano line or even the classic line entirely. Wi-fi access iPod with big screen and 200GB of storage...yeah I'd go for that. See, that's what I was hoping for - bigger storage. I could've justified the price if the storage was 60gb - 80gb, but not for 16gb. And the mass purge of iPod continues on the other forum. Report
September 7, 200719 yr comment_48911 My 160GB iPod Classic arrive yesterday and I'm impressed. It sounds better than I had expected and it appears according to Vinnie it's not worth iModding (It must kill him to say that) http://www.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=259258. I really wish I had heard a 5.5G model to compare but based on what's being said, the Classic should in theory sound better than a stock 5.5G model. It certainly sounds very good for a portable device. Report
