Apple's probably gonna release the 6th gen iPod to compete with M$.

This morning I was reading a Seattle Times article about a 'tech analyst' called Enderle who reported on Zune and the iTMS-like service that goes with it. Enderle says: Quote: …

Hopefully this will drive Apple's prices down to compete with Microsoft and its competitors. It might also force them to come out with something like the new touch-screen video ip…

MS knows exactly what it's doing. they know, in the short term, they will not knock the ipod out the box; they say they're in it for the long haul (they keep saying this!); thats t…

I don't think we should be laughing at this at all. MS has had a long time to sit and watch who succeeds and who fails. Granted it's been mostly Apple succeeding and everybody else…

My mini has gone through the wash a few times.

I've seen lily pods for sale in Borders. They are supposed to be waterproof cases for iPods for swimming and other water sports. I've never tried them.

Let me just be sure that I understand what we're talking about. You want to actually swim while listening to the iPod? Even if you had a waterproof case, you'd still need some sort…

I believe that some of them come with waterproof headphones ( not sure which ones).

ilounge.com has reviewed some waterproof alternatives...too lazy to find em though, sorry.

You're actually wondering if it could be real? Anyways, here is the Lounge thread.

Since it's an iPod topic, I went here and didn't see any reference to it, so I posted. I try to stay away from the Lounge as much as possible. I think the trouble the guy has cli…
