Dock Location & iPod Polls

So, do prefer your Dock on the LEFT, BOTTOM, or RIGHT?

Do you prefer it hidden or shown?

And do you think the new iPod is GREAT, OK, or PATHETIC?

I like it shown but hide it on my iBook because the dock takes up to much of the screan on that.

I like my Dock on the bottom.

I like the iPod compare it to other Mp3 Players it is a good one even for its price and I will get one.

I like my dock fully visible at the bottom

I think the iPod is great, I think the iPod price is poor.

How about 1/3 of an iBook?

If apple charges $400 for the mp3 player, I don't WANT the PDA, cause that will cost like $800.

I doubt Apple breaks 100k/sales on this item.

Oh okay. Apple has done it again. And all the poor, poor customers are raving mad shouting 'aaah, it's too expensive!!'. Get a life. Some cars are expensive, too! And they're cool anyway.

Let Apple live a little. They have made a great product - I hear no-one really saying that the iPod itself isn't cool - and they made their books on it. They want to have 399$ for it: They shall have it. Maybe all those complaining wieners are just not in the consumer segment Apple aims at? I for one *am* in that segment. Not that I'm rich, I'm not. But I *do* spend my money on phantastically expensive electronic gadgets. I bought a Palm m505 because it's the coolest PDA around. Do I really need it? What the heck should *THAT* question mean? It's a PDA, a PersonalDizzinessAdministrator. It's something to have around to tell people you're a digital nomad, a freak that goes for electronic gadgets! So what about the iPod? Its name sucks, it really does. But the gadget rocks, doesn't it. And before I buy something stupid like a player with 64M of memory, I'll buy an MD player by Sony or the Apple iPod. High End rocks. Low End sucks. That's how life is. If I could afford a Ferrari, I would. I can't, so I don't.

In half a year my TiBook won't be worth bragging about, it's already out of date. But hell! If we really start thinking about prices: Does ANYone need an MP3 player priced at 199$? 299$?! Nope. If you need music while walking, hum a merry tune.

Yes, ladies, rant away.

Elite is only a bad word as long as you're not part of it. :P

I completely agree with you if you think about it all you need is a job at Burger King and a closet to sleep in that is all you really need.
