Mini-iPod concept

I was browsing http://gizmodo.com and came across an interesting picture.

Sure it's fake, but it's a nice idea of what the mini-ipod could look like.

Thank God they were wrong. The iPod mini is gorgeous in my opinion.

azdude, I totally respect your opinion and everything, but I don't know, the mini just looks awkward to me. It looks like it's too narrow. And the colors, again, just my opinion, just make the iPod look like a cheap toy. I mean, I know the iPod isn't a car or a house or something, but still, for $250, I think they should've offered a white color to make it look a LITTLE more sophisticated. They changed the corners too, I can't figure out why. But the weird thing is, I don't like the mini in that picture up there either. I don't know, maybe I'm just too picky. Anyway, obviously Apple knows what it's doing, seems like a lot of people are really interested in the minis.

i believe that picture has already been discussed like a million times before. However, i think that it does look better than the ipod mini for sure. It's too bad the mini looks the way it does.

I'm gonna have to go ahead and agree. I don't really like the design, but I have to give giant kudos to whoever came up with the scroll wheel for the mini. Amazing, simply incredible. If they hadn't rounded off the corners, and offered a white model, I'd probably be stupid enough to buy one...

I think with the mini the colours brushed metal look is quite nice, but I dont think it goes well with the white wheel. I think thats where apple have gone wrong. Im half tempted to get one, torn between a 15gb and mini. With the normal pod u pretty much need white earbuds to keep the smooth look, but with the mini, it just strikes me as a free for all. I would love to see a full black one, black plastic wheel and a black brushed steel look on the rest. would also stop people being mugged as much because then they would have the less tell tale black earbuds
