Black or White?



I recently got a iPod 20GB Colour, so I plan to refund it and get the new iPod, and the new Apple iMac G5 !

Black. Plus, you'll be able to buy replacement Sony earbuds, which can be found anywhere, when the white iPod one's kick the bucket, and it'll actually match.

i admit that black looks a lot better, but i preordered mine white for one main reason... BLACK GETS TOO DIRTY!!! White stays clean a lot more than the black does, i had a white nano and my brother had a black one, on his as soon as you put your finger on the front it shows, the white doesnt show it at all.

I got a black 30 gig.

definitely get a white 60gb......60gb has 64 SD RAM vs the 30gb's 32 SD RAM .....which means (as far as i know) better battery life as well as justification for higher price (plus 30 extra gb). I reccommend the white because of all the crap i've read about the nano in black getting scratched up bigtime. i got a nano and white and haven't had a problem, plus i have an agent 18 case for it...I also recommend purchasing an agent 18 case for the ipod w/vid.....but sadly they will not be released till around thanksgiving.

Yeah i got my white Video 30 gb in about a week ago, and if any of you are wondering... its badass

My last 3 iPods (1st gen, 2nd gen and 4th gen) were white.

I just got a 60GB iPod Video in black.

Now I need to get black in ear headphones, or paint my existing ones black.

Where does it list the 60GB has 2x the RAM buffer?

i read that on ilounge in an article a while back

Ya. Good point.

I didn't see it on iPodlounge, but I read this on the ipodlinux.org website about the 5th gen tonight.

Surprised Apple doesn't list that in their tech specs or developer website. Very odd.

Good find laserguns.

So for the extra $120 CAD, you get another HD platter (60GB,) double the SDRAM (64MB vs. 32MB) and better battery life (whether its due to the larger RAM buffer or better battery is not yet known.) And it's worth the extra money.

Yes, but on the white, ground in dirt shows easier...I've seen some white things that look beige because of dirt. But I'm constantly cleaning everything I own. Clorox disenfectant wipes are my best friend
