thefinalprophecy Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I've previously owned the original release of the 5g ipod 30 gig and was pretty satisfied with it. Sold it and bought a Zune when those came out, and haven't really been that happy with it. I want to get a 60+ gig ipod, but I am reluctant because I know that as soon as I buy, apple will put out a 6th gen or something more advanced than what's avail now. i know apple is usually very secretive about new products before they are announced/available, but does anyone know if an ipod revision is in store in the next 6 months?

dark4181 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 i vote to wait for the 6g. you'll get some of that touch screeny widescreen video goodness and quite possibly flash memory (though i doubt that) so yea, i'm personally waiting for the 6g touchscreens but then, i already have a 5g 60gig... which i'll sell for a discount if anyone wants it (but not til the 6g are released) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/54626-should-i-wait-to-buy-an-ipod/#findComment-391821 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have G's1-4. All have dead battries(One actually has iPod linux, and DOOM!). Too cheap to get it fixed and I'm too lazy to do it myself.(Kidding about buying). Teh Zune is a good effort, but it falls short, true. The 6G sounds nice, but if you need a MP3 player now , go for a Creative Zen Vison M . I'm( and I'm sure no one else is) not sure when it's coming out.

komodo.t Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 I believe we should wait for the 2nd generation when WiFi built-in. This 1st version didn't come with WiFi feature!

cringemaster Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 If you dont mind waiting, wait for the 6th gen iPod. I hear it will be OS X powered like the iPhone and be very advanced with a touchscreen and all sorts of goodies. I dont think apple will announce it until around october along with leopard though, and im sure pricing will be steeper compared with the last few versions.
