I feel that I seem to only be popping up nowadays to be a critic, but I will give my 2 cents anyway.
The first thing I noticed was it was blue on blue on blue, it seems very bland. I personally prefer the old box, not necessarily the 3 boxes with the ribbons, but the clearer image, a more defined box, the shadow, a 'flashier' (I couldn't think of the word here that I wanted so will go with 'flashy') name of white on black below the blue (making it stand out more, so that is what you look at). There isn't much there (I like that) but someone taking a very quick glance at the box (as they probably wont be looking directly at it at all) should notice first of all (and if nothing else) the name. The way it is now, I feel anyone looking at it will look a little bit longer to figure out what that outline image is - its not as clear as the old 1. PS This made me think of the Microsoft bashing I was shown on google videos (for anyone with a spare few minutes that wants a bit of a laugh): http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=36099539665548298&q=microsoft+ipod Thanks for the effort, its always appreciated.
