- buster 14y agoUh yeah.. "mp3 players". lol. When i commute to work everyday, lots of people have headphones. But noone (really noone) has an iPod or other MP3 player. Phones have replaced those in my area and surely will replace MP3 players whereever they are still bought.
- rahoulb 14y agoThat's not the point. The point is, in an area of unsubsidised devices, Apple held their own against cheaper alternatives for as long as the product category was relevant.

- MatthewPhillips 14y agoThe iPod has 4 form factors.
- rahoulb 14y agoThe iPod had one form factor for the first three years of its existence. The iPad already has two distinct models and is likely to have a third this month.
- MatthewPhillips 14y agoAre you calling the iPad 2 and iPad 3 "distinct models"? I think you are misunderstanding what the grandparent means when they talk about choice.
