I welcome an ultraportable - I need it badly and so does the Japanese market. But, dammit, you don't need any new technology to produce an ultraportable. Windoze laptop makers have been doing this for years and coming in well under 2kg, often under …

Just calendar editing, and only for those events you add with the Touch? Ho hum. This is ridiculous. Give us what we want - google maps, mail, etc. If Apple did this, the hacker motivation would be lessened considerably.

AppleInsider reviews have now gotten worse than MacWorld reviews. This product certainly has some benefits and looks slick, but the lack if a numeric keypad is glaring enough for a large number of us to find this product next to useless. It'…

I would argue it isn't an iPod if it lacks EQ controls, a remote, ability to play iPod games, and lacks an of the other iPod software features. Apple has done a poor job of convincing one it is an iPod, given these things and the miniscule storage. …
