 That's all I was saying.
Thanks for the clarification. It makes sense now. That thing is too pricey to make a dent. If it had built in 3G phone as well....
 
 But are there not quite a few other palm-tops on the market?

Not that small (fits in your pocket, about the same size as a sidekick) that runs a full blow version of an OS (not a mobile version) has that much storage on a hard disk (not flash) and built in wi-fi (which the Apple video player is sorely missing).
 
 I agree with you though - at that price it's not going to make a dent.  I was just talking about how innovative it is, yet ignored.  I don't see it as a threat to many Apple products.
