New iPod lineup from Apple

[Robin]

Probably not - the old way to enable it seems to have disappeared, and I don't recall seeing it in the menu system while Steve was demoing it.

Thats a shame, I've still yet to own a iPod with coverflow and have been looking forward to it. I would have thought the new Nano wouldnt be a step back in terms of software. Now looking at the pricing it also seems to be the most expensive of the new offerings considering what your getting for your buck (smaller screen and no camera). The price isnt really that far off a Touch which does so much more.

And I wouldn't be surprised if they did stop bundling the white earbuds eventually, but you can be damn sure the price of an iPod won't drop as a result. They'll be phased out just like the included power adaptor was 5 years ago. And I bet they'll say it's to reduce the packaging size, therefore suddenly being fine simply because it's 'greener'.

Yeah, knowing Apple thats probably what will happen! and as you said they will claim its to save packaging etc... I remember when the iPod came in a classy origami style box and included a usb cable, firewire cable, carry pouch, remote, dock and charger!

You can run it straight from an iPod if you wish so you can add songs anywhere.

I personally use MediaMonkey as it handles large collections really well.

Oh wow, thanks a lot. By the way, what kind of files I can play with iPod and that software?

Mediamonkey plays pretty much everything, but iPods only play ALAC, AAC, M4A, M4B, M4P, MP3, MP4 and WAV. Mediamonkey will autoconvert non-compatible files as you transfer them across, but SharePod won't.
