Hi,
I've been waiting to upgrade my 4th Generation color iPod for some time, since I want to be able to watch video podcasts (mainly), music videos, and (in extremely rare occasions) movies (since I work full time and study at night and I dont have time to watch movies on the go. I would only watch movies on a plane, which I only go once or twice a year). I commute on a train everyday and i would like to watch podcasts. I have a PSP but I want something smaller.
My usage would be: 75% Music, 25% Videos
I dont want a full screen iPod but I fear upgrading right now because nobody is sure on what will come next. I already got burned when I bought my 4g color 2 months before the 5th generation. What features am I waiting for? 1- FM Radio (I would use it every morning) 2- Maybe a less scratch prone surface.
Im concerned since the recent upgrade was labelled 5.5G, meaning the 6G will be coming out in a few months. But if the 6G is the full screen, Im not interested and will buy 5.5G 80gb. But if the full screen is a separate iPod line, that means there will still be a 6G coming soon that nobody has any idea what it could be like.
What do you recomend? Wait for 6g or buy the 80gb 5.5G?
I'll appreciate your advice.
