And what makes you think that people who have $300 to sport for a piece of junk like this only have Limewire music on their iPod and not 256kpbs AAC iTunes Plus files or even Apple lossless?

And I think it's funny you think somehow good sound can't escape an iPod through the 1/8" jack, but if the cable connected to it has RCA crowns on the other end instead of another 1/8" jack, then suddenly it can. Or that despite the actual presence of an 1/8" jack on this device in the picture that this can't hook to other other devices like a mini system!

Don't get me wrong, I find this device ridiculous. Also, I find this price ridiculous. It's the same price the iPod HiFi flopped at I think. But rolling in all these arguments doesn't make sense to me.]]>Aug 28th 2009 10:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/Aug 28th 2009 11:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/Aug 28th 2009 11:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/Aug 28th 2009 1:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/Aug 28th 2009 1:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/Aug 28th 2009 1:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/

Wants as in "does"? Then it should be "doesn't it?"]]>Aug 28th 2009 8:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/Aug 28th 2009 8:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/No, it shouldn't be "doesn't it". they aren't asking you a question, they are making a statement. It wants to be a boombox, but it isn't. Now that you understand their meaning, if you still have an issue with the grammar look at every newspaper in the world and see how many, many, many headlines often use sentence fragments.
Now lose your false sense of accomplishment you get from trying to correct engadget when they didn't even make a mistake. ]]>Aug 28th 2009 8:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/Aug 28th 2009 10:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/Aug 28th 2009 8:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/28/altec-lansing-mix-imt800-really-wants-to-be-a-boombox-isnt/
