Hmmmmmmmmm, don't know if the estimates from www.everymac.com are spot on or not. Just throwing them out there FWIW. Apple iPod touch (Original) 8, 16, 32 GB Specs Original Price: US$299, US$399 Est. Current Retail: US$100-US$200 (The original 8 GB iPod touch was offered for US$299, the 16 GB was US$399, and the 32 GB introduced February 5, 2008 was US$499.) Apple iPhone (Original/EDGE) 4, 8, 16 GB Specs Original Price: US$499, US$599* Est. Current Retail: US$125-US$200 (*The 4 GB version originally was US$499 and the 8 GB version was US$599. On September 5, 2007, a mere two months after it shipped, Apple discontinued the 4 GB model and dropped the price of the 8 GB version to US$399. On February 5, 2008, Apple introduced a 16 GB configuration for US$499.) No doubt the smaller device is much more portable. But it's also slightly more expensive than freeware at least from my perspective. @John Carmonne, Which of your Macs where you thinking of enhancing to function as an "egg timer"? ;-) Just curious. -irrational john -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
