Best Interest
Feb 10, 2006 2:01AM PST

It would be in Apple's best interests to introduce something like that. Thats one of the main reasons I like the iRiver line and many other products because they have a much larger screen.

The only concern that I would have is I hope they would release a stylus so the screen wouldn't be so smudgy. BUT, I'd also be afraid that a replacement stylus would be a lot of $$$ lol. Maybe they could put one of those "loop things" on it like digital cameras have so you could attach the stylus.

Nice looking mockups though, thankfully they're a little choppy so people won't say THATS THE NEW iPod with Video (hopefully).

Will the content be priced higher?
Feb 10, 2006 2:11AM PST

So, the next question is... if the resolution of this thing (if it is true) will be something like 640x480 or whatever, will studios charge more for the higher resolution. Say, maybe $2.99 per episode?

I think what should happen instead is that the 320 x 240 become 0.99 cents like they should be now and then make the higher res versions $1.99.
