It's funny because when I bought my first iPod a few years ago (it was a 3G) it only came with firewire and I had to go out and buy a USB cable becuase I only had a PC (now I have …

How anyone could defend Apple's bonehead decision to not include FireWire cabling with the new line-up is ludicrous. This is a no-brainer, folks. I was all set to place an order …
