During the demo, the screen shot of iTunes showed an option for "Convert tunes to 128Kb AAC when loading to this iPod" (or words to that effect). I assume that's in real time and …

Just for fun... iPod shuffle wallpapers I made. Bright Green, White Text Bright Green, Black Text Dull(er) Green, White Text Dull(er) Green, Black Text

I'm buying one. Soooo tired of iPod 20 gig skipping while I run.

I love it. Personally, I'm getting a 40GB or 60GB model because I want it to hold my entire collection, but nevertheless the iPod shuffle IMHO is a great device that seems to make…

I have an iPod Shuffle that I picked up at the show. It's a very cool little device -- EXTREMELY light, and very small. Contrary to the name, you do not have to randomly play the s…

Moki, report back on battery life (ordered a 1GB model).

Which has the better design and is cooler?

The Cube was "cooler" but it was priced to fail. The Mac mini is designed to succeed where the cube failed... I see good things with the Mac mini.

I think the Mac mini is designed for efficiency where as the the cube is designed to be more aesthetic.

Yeah, the Cube had more of an affect, and I still believe it is the most beautiful thing Apple has ever designed. The Mac Mini is cool, but it is no Cube. Different machine for a…

The Kewbe is the nicest computer ever sold IMO. But it's frickin' huge compared to the Mac mini. See here: Note the mini *inside* the empty space beneath the Cube. P.S. I thou…

Mini: So small it's hard to concieve there is a computer in there. And at it's price point, I'm racking my brains trying to figure out what I could buy one for
