Still rather stick to my ipod video 30GB instead of this . And yeah , this stuff is 30 USD more expensive though .

I dont find the red wheel looks nice to me ,well , tats just personal opinion. It would be a diffrent story if they release Risako Special Edition. Whaha

Very nice.

Hopefully the black chrome doesn't flake off like some of the new MacBook black is facing.

i think both Macbook & iPod uses different finishing.
iPod seems to have a clear protective layer that Macbook dont have.

Very true indeed. For the extra few hundred buck, i can easily get iPod Donut sticker + plenty of saving for accessories. I was hopping for more variety. But it doesnt seems like Apple's style.
