RE: Scott "21. ---------------------------------------------------
Eh, that's kinda an unfair comparison, that's the first generation iPod to nintendo's 4th gen handheld…

Umm...Didn't Apple sell 1 Million "5G" iPods and iPod Nanos? Think before you speak."

Wrong. YOU think before you speak. As I said in my previous post, the 5th Gen iPod and iPod nano sold 14, that's FOURTEEN MILLION units in the first three months they were out. See:
"• Total iPods sold all-time: 42 million.
• 14 million iPods sold in quarter. 32 million in 2005.
That was from their 1st quarter FY2006 earnings report. You can read the whole report at the following link:

So. Thank before you Speak. :P

Re: "7. Eh, that's kinda an unfair comparison, that's the first generation iPod to nintendo's 4th gen handheld… not to say I'm complaining, but it seems like a pointless boast."

Yeah, the 4th Gen iPod sold 32 million in ONE year. the Fifth Gen sold 14 million (that's 2/3 of what DS has sold over all) in THREE MONTHS. So no, that's not really a fair comparison. But, I guess it sounds good in a press release to the unknowing general public. Personally I'm happy with my DS AND my iPod!
