Pasen iTouch LE demo video does it again: makes us scream in apathy

Oh Pasen, how you entertain us so! In the company's latest update to the familiarly designed iTouch, the iTouch LE includes a new, faster JZ4732 chipset that they say allows the unit to play 30FPS, unconverted video with less strain on the battery. With 4GB of internal storage (memory card support up to 32GB), voice recording, and support for RM, RMVB, AVI, DIVX, FLV, DAT, ASF, MP4, WMV, 3GP, MPG, and SWF, this $79 unit may just be coming around on something good. The UI isn't any prettier than before, but at these prices, who's complaining? Spot the video after the break if you're still with us.

what is the sound of an apathetic scream?

[Dillon @ Jul 8th 2008 3:48PM]

Squeal? I think that word is supposed to be an onomatopoeia...

[Dillon @ Jul 8th 2008 3:49PM]

Aw crap... I've created a duplicate comment. Now the duplicate is going to grow up to have his little red negative button abused by all you savages.

[BrianB @ Jul 8th 2008 4:03PM]

This one's a rather good seller, I've heard.

[phanbouy @ Jul 8th 2008 4:06PM]

thanks for the oblique reply, BrianB, but i'm not sure how it answers my riddle

[kccboy2004 @ Jul 8th 2008 4:21PM]

An apathetic scream...

imagine yourself on July 11th firing up a "brand new" product which is almost identical to the product release almost a year previously.

alternatively, imagine this.... your natural sister happens to be Angelina Jolie, she happens to whisper in your ear, at dinner, at your parents house, that she wants to snog you, sooo baaaadly. What you then let out is commonly known as an apathetic scream.... a mix of fruitlessness and unrequited expectation and timid disappointment.

July 11th is when my new electric razor arrives...

[atlasfugged @ Jul 9th 2008 2:08AM]

SIGH !!!! (an apathetic scream)

[thedesolate1 @ Jul 8th 2008 3:26PM]

Such blatant slandersosity!!! and yet the price is too good to be ignored? oh Engadget hath ye changed thy ways? your usually screaming blasphemy at these things...

[CharlieX @ Jul 8th 2008 3:38PM]

That word you keep saying... I do not think it means what you think it means.

[Dillon @ Jul 8th 2008 3:47PM]

How did they get away with calling it iTouch? Oh man, when Apple finds out about this they're gonna be like "NUM NUM NUM NUM!!" and then there will be no more Pasen.

[BrianB @ Jul 8th 2008 4:05PM]

Got you curious dunnit?

[7on @ Jul 8th 2008 5:05PM]

Apple doesn't actually make an iTouch

[Maxwell @ Jul 8th 2008 8:14PM]

Yeah 7on is right. It's called the iPod Touch. And I'm the only person that I know (in real life) who doesn't call it the iTouch anyway...

[k_S @ Jul 9th 2008 1:38PM]

But I tought Apple owned the whole iWhatever... guess not then, huh? lol. It doesn't sound bad at all though...

[Josh @ Jul 8th 2008 3:48PM]

I thought we were past the stylus?

[CharlieX @ Jul 8th 2008 4:03PM]

Mostly. But we're definitely past emo.

[phanbouy @ Jul 8th 2008 4:24PM]

ooooh so wicked and cruel
tastes good with gruel

[Smoke_Dawg_187 @ Jul 8th 2008 4:25PM]

LOL @ the emo comment. That was great. What a douche.

[thedesolate1 @ Jul 8th 2008 4:26PM]

ouch....

[grull27 @ Jul 8th 2008 4:51PM]

lol owned!

[Uchiha Sasuke @ Jul 8th 2008 3:50PM]

I want the 10 minutes and 25 seconds of my life back, no more no less.

And what's with the Sony Ericsson-esque logo?

[imacmatt09 @ Jul 8th 2008 3:50PM]

Meizu M8 knockoff.

[imacmatt09 @ Jul 8th 2008 3:51PM]

Meizu M8 knockoff.

[Chris Aubeck @ Jul 8th 2008 6:21PM]

What's sadder, the faulty posting mechanism, or low ranking the duplicates?

[Dillon @ Jul 8th 2008 3:52PM]

Really?! NO WAI!! I have those two things on my computer too! We should be friends!

[anonymouspimp @ Jul 8th 2008 3:58PM]

Well... IMO, at $80 that's a heck of a deal. Especially if it's drag and drop.

[DjSnafu @ Jul 8th 2008 4:12PM]

Whats up with the Pioneer CDJ background image?

[naz @ Jul 8th 2008 4:37PM]

If they played a Prince song in the demo this video would have been pulled

lol

[armg @ Jul 8th 2008 4:40PM]

What's the music icon?

[ddurand @ Jul 8th 2008 5:17PM]

where can i buy this?

[DUH @ Jul 8th 2008 5:31PM]

Where do you buy one!

[BlowURmindBowel @ Jul 8th 2008 6:09PM]

At the Mack store, there is a big white refrigerator box somewhere in a bad part of New York. Go there and talk to Stebe Yobs he'll sell you one.

[Thijs Haenen @ Jul 8th 2008 6:45PM]

Incredible....



It's even worse than I thought it would be...

[Montusama @ Jul 8th 2008 10:00PM]

Debating...but can't do anything until I get paid and also depends on bills....I HATE bills...

[ulle53 @ Jul 9th 2008 8:06AM]
