It seems like Apple has another hit on their hands. Like Pixar, the other company Steve Jobs founded, it seems Apple can do no wrong. Today, Steve Jobs unveiled Apple’s newest iPod. It is largely based on their popular iPhone mobile device with similar navigation and design.
Dubbed the iPod Touch, Apple’s new media player is more than just music and videos. It is only 8mm thick and incorporates a Safari web browser and the ability to access a Wi-Fi iTunes stores. This means that individuals will have the ability to shop, preview, and purchase music on the fly. As we all saw with the iPhone frenzy, the new Touch should have a similar fan reaction. At $299 for the 8GB and $399 for the 16GB model, it is pricy for the amount of storage. But as Apple has shown before, people are more than willing to pay a premium for their unique designs and fashionability.
I wonder if I’ll see the day when Apple isn’t seen as being cool. So far they seem to be one step ahead of everyone else…
