80 Gig iPod
I am an avid iPod user/hacker/promoter (doctor, lawyer, Indian chief). The following announcement was made yesterday:
Your correspondent has a lowly, two-year-old 15 gig and has plugged it. In fact, I have had to remove songs in order to house my current holdings. I questioned when I purchased mine, oh so long ago, whether I would ever fill it. After all, we're talking 4,000 plus individual songs. Obviously the answer is yes. And I do listen to it all in rotation.
Still, the whole marketing idea behind the exceedingly successful iPod Mini is that most folks listen to only a very small amount of their music. And that's what makes a 5 gig Mini so marketable and viable. However, I think I could make a serious run on plugging a 40 gig, given half a chance.
Of course, the Espousa has maintained from the beginning that my personal goal was to plug my Pod.
Toshiba has announced that it will be adding an 80GB model of the 1.8" hard disk Apple has been using in the (non mini) iPods. Currently the highest capacity drive in this form factor is 60GB, which is the drive found in the iPod Photo.
