@goobi
Actually, no. Kolkata has a Premium Reseller now so they get hold of the products as quickly as anyone else.
BTW, the store here allows you to use Macs, but not the iPods. Do they allow you in Goa?
But, I guess, they will have demo units here too.

But non-DRM files are not affected like this, they can play as much as u like.

At least try to be better informed about the company you fantasize about when you are alone!
Any song your share between two Zunes (whether it be DRMed or not) is only available for three days/plays - whichever is lesser. Even if it is a song you yourself wrote and sung.

new zunes coming soon but i think apple has beaten ms this time again ... unles offcourse the zunes are touch screens

Even if they weren't intended to be, they will be now. I am sure they were sitting on their asses in Redmond waiting for Apple to launch the new iPods...

Hmm...Gizmodo seems to be using some better digicams than engadget... they show all washed out low contrast images. Still, I like the inbetween jokes in there...

yeah, thats a very good point you've pointed out.

Re: The official thread for any and all discussion related to Apple Macs.

Not quite, have a look. The iPod touch is smaller then iPhone which means they have to use two assembly lines anyway. The only thing they will save money is the screen cos it is same in both.

Re: The official thread for any and all discussion related to Apple Macs.

What's this I hear about the Nano going fat? It is smaller in almost every dimension - it is thinner, lighter and smaller. Only the width is slightly more to accommodate the larger screen.

So what is everyone cribbing about!

I just checked Apple store and Apple has comeout with a new Wireless keyboard. Requires 3 AA batteries. Battery usage life is not mentioned.

The Apple Wireless Keyboard has been completely redesigned, inside and out. It features an elegant, ultra-thin anodized aluminum enclosure with low-profile keys that provide crisp, responsive feel. It also has function keys for one-touch access to a variety of Mac features such as screen brightness, volume, eject, play/pause, fast-forward and rewind, Expose, and Dashboard. Its compact design fits on your lap or on even the most crowded desk. And its Bluetooth wireless technology lets you use it just about anywhere within 30 feet of your Mac.

The keyboard automatically powers down when you're not using it and turns on instantly as soon as you start typing. This intelligent power management means you'll get up to nine months of battery life based on average usage patterns. It also has an on/off switch for when you're away from your computer for a long time.

Compare that to Creative Zen & you will know.

It was introduced on 7 August 2007. Pretty old news.
