Well seeing that last summer that Apple's version of this got delayed due to touchscreen problems, Yeah they ARE beating Apple to the Dance..but you have to remember that Apple wasn't excactly the first to the dance with MP3 players
or the first to the dance with and flash MP3 player...Yet, who's #1?
I'm looking at this as a really good chance that tomorrow we will see a TRUE video iPod..Just like last year at CES we saw abunch of intel core Laptops..then we saw the Macbook Pro at Macworld.
Apple's #1 because people aren't smart. Their product is neither the best, nor the least expensive, nor the easiest to use, nor the first, nor...
But they did get the iTunes thing right -- instead of selling people music, they're allowing them to use it for a fee -- as the music becomes useless without an iPod. Once people started paying money for music, they were locked into Apple's DRM.
It's not gonna last -- Apple's restrictions management is now circumventable, and I'll expect to see a lawsuit soon which will require Apple to set people's music free. After all, they DID pay for it, right?
The X-Fi3 keeps with the company's commitment to audio fidelity, thanks to the apt-X codec, which supposedly offers audio quality similar to a wired connection when streaming. On that front, the device also handles FLAC files.
