Please choose the appropriate forum for this topic. Thank you. What Would You NOT like to see on the 5th Gen iPod?
Video Capability More PDA-like Options Different Colors More Gigs Standard Color (no ability to view pictures, just album art) If not up here what else wouldn't you like to see? On second thought, i think it would be cool to have standard color.

Ipod mini style shape: I have a mini and think it's great, but creative have just made a larger version of the zen micro and it doesnt look right. They should keep the designs apart

I wouldn't like the 5G iPod to come in different colours like the mini, except maybe silver like the PowerBooks...

Now, I'm all against the video support. I think it's a silly idea. But they HAVE to make bigger ones because I'm sure people out there are dissatisfied with 60. Granted, I only have a 15, but it's goddamned FULL. And besides, every launch = larger size, usually by about 20GB or so, as far as I recall. |

Don't want a grey screen,PDA,Phone, same headphones.
I would like more color options, color screens, backlight on a click wheel or buttons like the 3d gen. Better headphones.

More PDA-like Options
Colors A non Color Screen Phone Capability Games (aside from the little rinky-dink games - what i mean is, don't turn this into the PSP) I prefer the 3G touch buttons - all the way. In some ways the 4G click wheel felt like a step back technologically...I really just want to see a larger capacity ipod that's the same size as the 20GB - so bigger, but porpotionately smaller In my half awake still doped on vicodin state this morning (tore my MCL take drugs = sleep through night) I heard NPR talking about movie distrobution on the PSP and that against what I would've said months ago, other non-sony studios are releasing movies in PSP friendly media... ultimately, although I don't want to see it happen, I think jobs is going to realize he's got to compete. i hope he decides to make a separate line though instead of trying to turn the ipod into some swiss army knife (apple army knife?) puck |

Re: What Would You NOT Like To See on the 5G iPod?
the clickwheel. it's what makes the ipod look different from other mp3 players, but i'm tired of it. up and down buttons would be much easier to use. |

No they wouldn't. Buttons are hugely inferior to the surgeon-like precision of the wheel. I can get through my music in a 10th the time it would take with stupid buttons.

The whell is a trademark and it save space on the ipod so it allows for bigger and better screens. Also buttons suck. Anyone tried going though 20 gb worth of music on a sony mp3 player. I have and it took 10 minutes
