8 Gigs version says 'Updated' while the others are new. The others say Improved Performance, that one doesn't.

"Enjoy all the great features of the 8GB model along with better performance, richer graphics and voice control"

you also get free remote/mic with the 32/64GB versions

8GB model is a bad deal.]]>Sep 9th 2009 2:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/Sep 9th 2009 2:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/

Nano = future of iPods??

Apple, put your finger back on the consumer's pulse, please!!]]>Sep 9th 2009 3:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/Sep 9th 2009 8:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/
Murmermer, it's obvious you can't think for yourself and that you follow Steve-O with blind faith without thinking outside his "vision". I enjoy Apple's products, but Steve-O doesn't always have the consumer in mind when designing his products. The bottom line is what motivates him (and rightly so).

Would people be complain if he put the Camera, FM radio in like they are now without them?? I think not, fool.]]>Sep 9th 2009 11:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/So $199 is looking like a great deal to me.

Yep, the comment ranking system is working well. Just imagine if, on a Zune article, someone had said "give me an iPod instead" - what do you think the reaction would be? A little negative, perhaps?

Said it before, saying it again, will keep saying it until it changes: the comment ranking system is not working. The rankings do not reflect the quality or worth of the comment. It is just a tool that is used by trolls to make dissenting opinions disappear and to make it appear as though everyone here believes the exact same things. It is fascism - there will be one opinion and one opinion only and we will not acknowledge that other opinions even exist.

At least stop the fading of low-ranked comments, so readers can see for themselves that the rankings reflect bias, and not content. They'll see that they reflect people's subjective opinions of companies, rather than objective assessments of products. And then they'll realise that the rankings are just rubbish and that the only thing they reflect is how completely and earnestly the comment follows the party line.

Now quickly, fascists - low rank me and get this dissenting opinion buried before anyone sees it!]]>Sep 9th 2009 9:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/Sep 9th 2009 1:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/apple-updates-ipod-touch-line-drops-prices-adds-top-end-64gb-m/

Now I would consider Zune HD more because
-OLED
-output HD
-better sound (?)
-about the same price

Things I worry about getting a Zune HD
-heart, "I like it" or "I hate it rating". I like the star system and have invested in rating my songs
-playlist, I heart there is no smart playlist?
-my stats and playcount probably won't translate over to zune software
