I think the colors are kinda girlish, except for the silver & blue one. These colors don't have a 'cool guy' look, but that ís the market Apple is pointing at. The silver one is good, the rest is well-well. Could be better.

I'd go with the silver or possibly the blue one. That's if I don't go for the 15Gb instead...........

Who on earth voted for the pink one? Yukk.

What would you like, black and red?

Actually, that sounds cool...

edit: you can choose all colors and options that you like in the poll.
The original iPod is the size of a deck of cards!!! I just returned from an Xmas trip to Chicago and stopped by the Apple store there... the 3G iPods are TINY already, and the iPod Mini is MOST DEFINITELY the size of a business card. They look a hell of a lot bigger than they really are on Apple's website.

3.5" x 2" is a standard size for business cards. The iPod Mini is slighly longer than a business card -- 1/10th of an inch to be exact. It is 0.5" deep, and is one of the smallest MP3 players I've ever seen with decent storage.

so.. wait. if i had one of my american friends buy an ipod for me and ship it over here to germany, would i be able to recharge it? (since the power outlets have a different voltage) because if it was possible. there'd be nothing hindering me from such a purchase (my beloved min disc player kicked the bucked yesterday night...)

You can also use the firewire port to charge on your Mac.

I may wait to see the HP iPod before purchasing. That blue is a nice colour and offers a little relief from the sea of white that I've got going on with all my other Apple prods.

What threw me off was the white navigation on the bottom, it makes sense to me, but the colors look skinned on top in the pictures.
This has its advantages because you can spot the navigation and screen easier than on the regular iPod at a glance.
Another thing i like is how the iPod and iPod mini work with both win and mac instead of seperate. If they used these colors in the eMac i'd be happy.
