No seriously, I've been a major Mac boy for basically two decades. Although I'm not one of those uber-fanatical types. I hate the vast majority of Apple's ads for their Mac products. To pretentious and stuck up. They really should be advertising some of the advanced features of the OS. Basic **** like adding items to the sidebar or to top bar of the Finder Window. The ability to drag and drop files into the Open/Save windows and have it jump to those folders instead of moving the item. Simple (yet intermediate) awesome junk like that, not bashing the competition.

I was late to the iPod game because I didn't like how the product functioned. I have an aversion to expensive handheld mechanical based electronics (spindle hard drive MP3/MP4 players). Solid non-moving flash memory makes me far more comfortable with my handhelds.

That said when I got my iPod Touch I was happy, it was kind of what I was looking for in a portable handheld (Media player, PDA-ish device, minor entreatment, and minor work platform). Now Apple has made me sad, because everything I wanted is in the iPad and more. With iWorks and the bigger screen... if I had know the iPad in this form was coming at that price I would have waited . The iPad looks like it'll do everything I wanted out of the iPod (as the iPod didn't really have a good or practical office like tools).

I've only been an Apple fan for a few years. I wouldn't buy a Mac until they switch over to Intel Processors. Wouldn't purchase an iPod until the touch came out.

I wasn't a fan or owner of the iPod until the touch was released. I stuck with my cheapy dell mp3 player that I could easily drag and drop mp3 files onto it.

The good thing about all Apple products is they always hold a good value. If you wanted to sell your iPod touch to upgrade, you would be able to get a very fair price for it.
