 iPods for Everyone!!! http://msnbc.msn.com/id/3225735/ http://www.macworld.co.uk/news/main_news.cfm?NewsID=7957 Dear Apple, It's nice to see your stock price and volume on a BIG rise! I hope this keeps up!  Ok, I have to vent now. . . The iPod Mini is priced way too high! Whatever happened to the $99 iPod idea, Apple? Steve Jobs said last year that "Apple would love to have a $99 iPod" but yet you guys failed to deliver one. Why? Before I heard that the iPod Mini was going to be priced at $249, I was expecting that it would be priced no higher than $199. $249 is just too much moolah!  Apple, you've got to get the price of the current iPod Mini down to $199. I don't care how you do it, just do it somehow. And I also think that it would be a good idea to still release a $99 iPod Mini in the near future, with perhaps about half as much disk space as the $199 iPod Mini. You would then have iPods at 5 price points: $99, $199, $299, $399, and $499. This truly means iPods for everyone! For the rich, for the poor and the middle class folks. You would sell a lot more iPods this way, and sell many more songs on iTunes. Think about how many po' folks are illegally downloading music online for FREE and want an iPod, but can't afford one. Now just imagine the possibilities. . .  Yours truly, Jason (a.k.a. King Shrek) Apple Customer

So would I. I have an iPod, and it's small enough, so size and storage wouldn't be what attracted me, however with the combination of the iPod OS and such a low price, they would make excellent gifts... And again, size really isn't all that important, price is.

My girlfriend is getting me an ipod mini for my birthday. I think $250 is fine because look at what it is. 4gb is fine for me even though I have 12gb of music! Also, I hope everyone knows that there IS a waiting list both online and in apple retail stores for the ipod mini...apple...you shrewd devil you.

Apple will also lower the price prob to $199 shortly, in hopes for another surge in sales so i think that everything they are doing is fine

Apple is selling minis out and it hasn't even left the US yet. There's no way Apple is going to drop the price of the Minis this year. That would be throwing a very large amount of money right out the door.
