I will say, iTunes 7 is pretty kick-ass. w/o being an uber-geek, well, they added some nice stuff re: display of media / song lists / album art, and it’s sleeker, and yet still easy to use ---

I dont understand why they dont start letting you change the color of the actual Ipod screen. When I use mine at night I wish I could have a black backround with whit lettering so that its not as bright. I think Itunes will be perfect when they start letting you pick your skins of the Ipod itself. ---

^^ The whole ipod itself should be an lcd screen. That way I could change the background color, and the whole ipod would look like it was a new color. ---

When I use mine at night I wish I could have a black backround with whit lettering so that its not as bright. I think Itunes will be perfect when they start letting you pick your skins of the Ipod itself. In addition to that, with a black screen and white lettering, you are saving on battery power too. It probably won’t be that significant since the screen (at least on the nano) stays illuminated for 30 seconds or so. ---

Close, but I still don’t believe everything I see in blurry photographs. Lots of people thought they were going to announce it at the keynote, but they didn’t _shrug_ ---

Yeah, I had already seen this on digg on the 11th (maybe the 10th). I, like a lot of people that commented on the story, were skeptical of that article that said it might be release at the keynote. Again, I don’t believe it until it’s out.
