I agree. The iPod is way overhyped, not all that revolutionary, and will be superseded by mobile PDA/cellphone devices with music player software.

Now, we probably disagree on what OS those devices will be running (I will say "anything but Windows) but I'm glad a prominent competitor has come out and called the iPod what it really is: mediocre.

...and I'm a devout Mac user!
