$50 extra.
[ Posted by Dan on January 06, 2004 | 2 Comments ]

Apple says that for fifty extra dollars, you can get a way better portable music player than you typical flash memory based unit. Well, for fifty extra dollars over this new iPod mini, you can almost quadruple the amount of storage (from 4 gigs to 15 gigs) with a less-than-modest increase in size. Essentially, the difference is $50, 2 ounces and 11 gigabytes. Somehow Apple has managed to make something less expensive and make it more of a luxury item.

 

Arc Technica has a pretty susinct write up on the expo keynote.

I still think the mini ipods look like masterlocks. Especially the goldtone and silvertone ones.

I think I'll stick with my 15-gigger for a while.

Comment posting has been turned off because I don't have enough time and will to deal with the constant comment spamming. I'm very sorry and will fix this sometime soon (soon = before 2004 ends).
