Confused Apple?
While I'm not typically one to fall initially for the hype of a new product (I did once and it cost me too much), I found it interesting to notice that Apple has introduced the new Mini iPod at a cost of $250 (plus shipping and handling). Cool features about it: small size, multiple color attachments. Thats pretty much it.
On the flip side, looking at the Macintouch website, one can discover a link to Amazon that looks remarkably like this (Macintouch Amazon referral). It's a link to a 10GB iPod running at a cost of $236 + change.
At approximately twice the storage capacity of the Mini iPod and slightly larger, it's still cheaper with the same interface and options. So why would I choose a Mini version?
Bad Apple innovation! No cookies for you!
