It isn't meant to replace the iPod. It can connect to an iPod and play songs off it if you want. It's mainly meant to be a pocket pc/phone, but one that works well with all of the other apple products (it says it also syncs with PCs, which is nice for me). Not sure where all the DRM comments are coming from, that's iTunes, not iPod or iPhone. I still can't believe people buy stuff from iTunes; talk about a crippled and overpriced product. And I'm even more baffled by your Xbox comments... why do you want to connect an mp3 player or a phone to an Xbox? I must be missing something here.
