Have they axed the 30GB model? I read where the 160GB model was $350, but didn't say anything about a 30GB.Originally posted by ZoolThe new classic is very thin and 80G for $250..thats where i'm leaning.

80 and 160 are the only new ones. They are almost as thin as the iTouch but not quite. For 80G or 160G at that size, you cant beat it.Originally posted by 3irty1Comment

I agree with Zool. Paying more for less space on an MP3 player doesn't make much sense to me. The flash is still too expensive per gig.
iTouch is kind of cool I guess but it is just not worth it in my opinion. The regular one is a really good deal right now.Comment

Apple has three class action suits against it already over the iPhone - one for each of the last three months.
The latest one is over roaming charges.

Apple update shuts down hacked iPhones
SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) — Apple has issued a software update that creates problems for iPhones modified to work with a cellular carrier other than AT&T.
Apple warned earlier this week that the iPhone update — which adds access to the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store and fixes some security flaws — could permanently disable phones running programs that untether phones from its exclusive partner's network.
Several gadget enthusiast websites, including Gizmodo and Engadget, as well as online postings from hacker communities reported that, depending on which unlocking program was used, certain modified phones no longer worked after they installed Thursday's software update. In some cases, the phones worked, but only with the original SIM card that ties the phone to AT&T.
Some sites also reported that iPhones equipped with unofficial, third-party applications were disabled after the update.
Some hackers had characterized Apple's warning as "a scare tactic." Despite Apple's history of playing cat-and-mouse games with hackers in the past, company officials insisted they were "not proactively" trying to make hacked iPhones useless.
It was unclear how many iPhone owners had unlocked their phones, but the programs — including several that can be downloaded for free — appeared to be particularly popular with European consumers. Apple isn't selling the iPhone or initiating the service in Europe until November, so the unlocking software allowed Europeans who bought iPhones in the United States to use the $399 devices.
Installing Apple's latest iPhone update is optional.

It's always interesting to see how technology companies fight to protect their products. It appears that despite Apple's claims that they are playing hardball with hackers, especially before the lucative European market opens.Comment

I think its a dick move to brick unlocked iPhones. Then again, what company doesn't do it? Microsoft released "dashboard" updates to brick modded xboxs.
Somebody will have this hack figured out within a few days to install the update and not brick them. I hate the exclusive contract with Cingular and long for a CDMA version of the phone.Comment
