Beauty & Memory, WOW!!

Finally a beautiful PMP with some storage. I'm sorry but Apple dropped the ball with the iPod touch in the storage dept. Every thing about it is great, but I dont need it so thin. It could've been a 1/4" thicker and touting 80gigs. I would buy that @ $400.00. It should clearly be their flagship iPod long side with the iPhone, but it's just more frustration wondering how long should I wait for that perfect PMP? Maybe the Q5W is the one.

Been waiting for this bad boy since CES!

I was very psyched when I first heard about it from the CNET CES video, and of course greatly chagrined when I heard through the grapevine that it might not be out till next year! Now it's coming out THIS week? Well, I'm gonna wait till the reviews come in before I jump, but damned if this isn't STILL exciting news! The only thing that gave me pause from the original specs was the weight, over 13 ounces, which is kinda weighty to be slinging around on a daily basis, so I hope it'll be lighter than that. But even in the post iPhone/iPod Touch world, this looks like a strong challenger if only because it brings hard drive storage capacities to the table, albeit its interface probably won't be as slick. Ahm crossin' mah fingers and hopin' hard this'll turn out to be all it seems!

post a real review and NOT an overview

There are way too many (useless) overview articles and exactly zero reviews.

Should maybe update this posting with an actual review? Could link to the actual review because this is kind of useless. Myspace Stuff<a href="http://www.grandprofile.com>Glitter Graphics
