I'm sure everyone in Italy has an iPod... and a scooter. BrRrrrRrRRRrrrrr. Chow.

Good Eddie Izzard reference. If Apple can make inroads into China, it'll be big. And many upwardlt mobile Chinese (mainlanders) are very bran conscious these days. But even i…

meh. unless they plan on turning their product into a fashion/status symbol Apple will be fine. What they actually have to do is somehow make the iPod uncool, and take its place in…

We're dying. Watch us bleed.

The iPod has become so popular that a friend of mine who swore he'd never buy anything from Apple only a few years ago, bought an iPod mini for his wife 2 weeks ago. Now he wants …

I think Apple needs to choose either the iTMS or the iPod to stop trying to retain a tight hold on. I seriously think they should look at licensing FairPlay to other stores but no…

Being from Singapore, I really find it ironic how Creative is with their recent adverts to try to get people to "switch" from their iPod. Even the fonts they use in the ad are Gara…

In movies and tv series, people listen to their "iPods", not their "Creatives". iPod is synonomous with mp3 player. I don't think Apple has anything to worry about, the iPods are d…
