iwuvcookies 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2005 I found this new mp3 and just wanted to share with yall. I think the design is nicer than the Ipod. I really want to trade in my IPOD 5th generation wiht Video or whatever you call for this thingy. It just looks so sleek or futuristic. Well I don't want the pink one though. Its battery life is better than that of the ipod. They come in a 20gb and a 6gb. Also doubles as a file harddrive. Here's a link to the site to see some specs and stuff. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eikon 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2005 Wow. That thing is freakin' sexy Are the button actual buttons or is the entire thing a screen and the buttons are a "touch screen" type thing? I think I might get one of these to replace my broken iPod which Apple refuses to take back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fusionx 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2005 mmm... not to be evil or anything but i'd rather keep my iPod than buy a whole new mp3 player cause it looks nice... my iPod is colourand has 40gbNot to forget the touch button thingy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cerebral Stasis 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2005 how does this thing show that track????If you look closely, above the progress bar, there are the numbers "6/14", which would mean that they are currently playing track 6 out of 14.I must agree; it certainly looks amazing. I've never heard of transparent screens like that. It certainly makes for an overall "interfaced" and "connected" look.To answer a question; the buttons aren't part of the screen. They're real buttons (you can tell because they cast a shadow).I'm not absolutely sure what the advantages of the iPod vs this things is, but as is mentioned, it has a better battery life than the iPod and it can be used to transfer/hold files as well as music, so I'd say that is a definate advantage over an iPod, not to mention it comes in various colors. However, I wouldn't trade an iPod video for an mp3 player that didn't support video, regardless of how sleek-looking it may be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
selim 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2005 Yeah these things are pretty snazzy and small but trading in something that plays videos for one?*slap*Anyway can't the ipod hold files aswell, like a spare harddrive? I'm sure I read it somewhere that it could.And isn't the screen on an ipod too small to properly watch movies anyway? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DogEater008 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2005 wow.. it's so small. I would love to get something liek that.. But i'm not sure if i should pick between an ipod or that because it looks too easy to get scratches. If i were to buy it, i would get the silver one =P. .It looks so nice =P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cerebral Stasis 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2005 wow.. it's so small. I would love to get something liek that..It's strange, but why is it that mp3 players are the only things that can get girls to say "Wow... It's so small. I want it!"? Usually it's the size that counts.Okay, crude, I know, but I just couldn't resist.True, the iPod video screen would be very small, but if it was "too small to watch videos", I'm sure noone would buy it.

Plenoptic 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2005 Wow that's pretty cool. Of course I would get a different color but that transparent screen is pretty cool. I see the screen now. The list and timer and stuff. I would buy it if it is cheaper than the Ipod. I guess I'll have to wait and see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
