ROKR: What's the point?


Okay, Motorola finally revealed the ROKR to the public after months of speculation.Now here's the question is it worth it? The ROKR costs $250 and can hold 100 songs. For the same price, I can get a 4GB iPod nano (1,000 songs),6GB iPod mini (1,500 songs), or go the extra mile and get a $300 iPod with color (5,000 songs). Most people already have a phone anyways and there's not much demand from the average joe for a phone that plays music.Honestly, I don't see a reason why i should bother buying it. There's also the Sony Ericsson Walkman phone for $500 that new Nokia N91 which is pretty expensive. But who's going to spend the extra dough on these devices. I mean we've seen phone-insert portable entertainment device here crossovers,*cough NGage,cough* and they've never really gone mainstream. So what is Apple really achieving here?

iPod nano and Mighty Mouse


As I type this, I'm at the Apple Store and just went hands on with the iPod nano and the Mighty Mouse. The nano is a piece of flawless art. it's too tiny for me personally; it's thinner than a pencil and 1/3 as wide as the regular iPod, but I'm sure it will fly off the shelves. The 4GB version is already out of stock! As for the Mighty Mouse, it's okay, but thats about it. Apple's on a roll. If the keep this going they're definetly going down in the books. I'll give you my full impressions later.
