That is more affordable.
I've seen honest faces before. They usually come attached to liars.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'd rather have regular Google Maps Search integration than a third-party directory like Yelp. (Yelp in particular drives me crazy because its entries are so randomly keyworded. It's helpful if I have an hour or so to pare down the entries to just the helpful ones, nsm on-the-go.)
199 8GB!!!! Oh I am so getting one.

I've had googlemaps integration and GPS on my Helio since I got it in August (though admittedly, the rest of it, and the interface, is not nearly as pretty as the iPhone), and it is quite nice. Though I also like having a real keyboard. OTOH, I've had it almost a year now.
But when my contract is over, I'll probably get an iPhone, yes. :)

The big news, is $399 to $199 -- we think we can check off more affordable.
Does this mean there will be a 32GB version as well?
I could probably get away with 8GB if I only put podcasts on it. I still have a 16GB Touch and a 30GB classic to hold the entire library for long trips...

Just 8 and 16GB, from what I'm seeing -- I think "399 to 199" is meant to be the price drop, not the range of models (but the tuaw live feed made the same guess and then corrected themselves a hair later).

OH. That makes sense.

That's good. Not good enough for me to get rid of my 8GB for the 16, but good. If I wait another 6 mos, maybe they'll come out with a 32 :)
