iPod Photo has now become iPod and iPod U2 also gets the colour and photo capabilities. What gets me is the capacity differences, it’d be nice if there were a 40GB or something in between the 20 and 60GB ones. Maybe Apple are trying to sell more top of the range pods by only offering fence sitting people like me, who would look at entry level products and go, ‘I’d like a little more than that, what’s the next model up’, to buy the top of the range, ie most expensive model, as the mid option. (Then again, when I purchased my iPod, I went ‘fuck it’, and got top of the range at the time). I’m not sure that made a lot of sense but hopefully you get the idea.
The whole paying extra for a damn firewire cable sucks alot.
Podcasting stuff in the new iTunes is a good idea, I hope it doesn’t suck.

It sucks in the podcasts nicely, but the selection is limited and while I’ve transferred them to the iPod, I haven’t listen to them yet or even confirmed that I haven’t got several megabytes of dead air.
The selection is a bit iffy, it appears to be all Apple’s choice. Their store, their perogative, but I like my choice not theirs. I couldn’t find Leo Laporte’s KFI podcast, but could find the TWiTcast. Go figure.
Tood Cochrane at Geek News Central isn’t impressed at Apple’s implementation of Podcasts.
