6th Generation iPod
I am only marginally excited for this. When I tell you the reason why I can’t jump for joy yet, I just know you will laugh your collective socks off at me. Are you ready? No off button. I’m serious! Stop laughing! I am not in love with the sleep feature on the iPod. I don’t know about your iPod, maybe yours works just fine, but my iPod? Not so much. When it is on its own, not attached to anything, it shuts down like it is supposed to, eventually, but I consider the delay to be wasted battery minutes. When it is attached to my iHome in the kitchen or my iRiver in the car? It never shuts off. I constantly have to remember to take it out of the iHome or unplug it from the iRiver so it “knows” it should shut down. Eventually. After it wastes a few minutes of battery. It’s a small thing, I know, but I’d love to have the ability to just hit OFF already. Is that too much to ask?
Whew. Apparently I have strong iPod off switch feelings. Who knew? Back to the next generation iPod. It is rumored to have a large, more iPhone like screen in the works, which would be nice for video viewing. It is also rumored to run on OS X, another nice feature. According to the source web site, ArsTechnica, you should look for this in January. Knowing Apple, I’m guessing they will late but the 6th Gen iPod will be even better because of it. And if anyone at Apple reads this? Power. Button. Seriously, people.
