iPod $$$???
Authored by: evildan on Oct 25, '01 11:22:45AM
This is exactly what I think. Apple has always been too expensive... Steve still hasn't learned how to price an item. He's always a bit higher than high. (maybe in more ways than one).

The Cube, and now the iPod, are prefect examples of this. I would have purchased a cube, let's face it, they look cool... regardless of the fact that they don't run very well. But they are way too expensive for a machine that you cannot expand.

The iPod's price should be $250 - $300 MAX!!! I would see that as still bit expensive, but I could shell it out, being the Apple loyalist that I am.

I can see using the iPod as an external firewire drive... That would justify the spending... but $400! Come on Apple wake up... who is going to buy this thing?!?!

The iMac philosophy was the correct philosophy... quality - cool looking - slightly higher priced than the other guys - and all in one - easy to use.

The iPod has the same apeal, but the price... they are about a hundred dollars off the mark... which takes it from being the big XMas craze to another dead product line (like the cube).

Imagine that... maybe we should change our motto... "PRICE DIFFERENT!!"
