whats the difference between the HP IPod and the regular IPod besides the HP tag slapped on?
The Apple iPod is manufactured by Apple, and the HP iPod is manufactured by HP. Other than that, they are totally identical.

Q: What's the difference between the Apple 4G iPod and the HP 4G iPod?
A: The Apple iPod and the HP iPod are the same as far as function and appearance. The only differences are that the HP iPod comes pre-formatted to work on Windows and includes a Windows installation CD, the HP logo appears on the back of the HP iPod, and the box is blue and white with "iPod+hp" and a "people photo" on it.
In addition, AppleCare cannot be purchased for HP's version of the iPod. If you desire the 2-year coverage provided by AppleCare, you'll need to purchase an Apple-branded iPod.
I'd go for the apple one just for better support/warranty. ;)
From Reuters.Quote:
AppleŽ today unveiled the second generation iPodŽ mini lineup with a new 4GB model priced at just $199 and a new 6GB model with 50 percent more storage priced at $249. Both iPod mini models feature increased battery life of up to 18 hours, USB charging and an ultra-portable, lightweight design available in four vibrant colors.
I'm thinking about one of these as well.
Four vibrant colors? blue pink green silver and wasnt there another one?
Perhaps im going crazy.
EDIT: Gold! Are they doing away with the Gold, or just not including silver as one of those 'vibrant' colors?
I would never EVER buy the HP one...forget HP
Gold wasen't selling as good as the other colors so they just stoped making em!!Quote:

The new iPod Mini's suck because they don't come with a AC charger. :(
I think I'll wait for the iPods to drop even lower in price, then I'll buy. :lol:
