IPOD VIDEO

Oh my. I want.

First the nano, now the new iPod (with video). You run out of superlatives for Steve Jobs and all the geniuses at Apple. (actually, will post a 'Switcher' entry soon and just started the book "iCon Steve Jobs: The Greatest Second Act in the History of Business. So far a fascinating read.)

Like all Apple products, simple, beautifully designed and engineered with an elegant interface.

I have a 1GB Shuffle and a 3rd Generation iPod, but my iPod won't hold a charge for long. I'm waiting for the battery to be replaced by Apple due to a recent court settlement but may just upgrade to the new one, could really use the extra gigs of storage, already out of room on my 15 gig (lots of new audiobooks) and the video and bigger color screen is a nice bonus.

Who will win the war for my disposable (gadget) income this Christmas Season? Sony (PSP), Nintendo (DS), Apple (iPod), Microsoft (XBox 360), Motorola (Razr) or Ford (Mustang GT)? Toss up: iPod or Mustang (or both!)
