Mossberg reviews iPod Mini

Walter Mossberg takes a hands-on look at the iPod Mini in his column today, applauding the device's design and execution but lamenting its price. "Apple's iPod Mini is a winner, but would be a true home run at $50 less," Mossberg concludes. Mossberg also finds some fault in the headphone jack being on the edge of the device, and the lack of bundled accessories. Also interesting is that "the latest version of iTunes even senses if you have a Mini, and if your song collection exceeds its capacity, the software can optionally auto-choose a selection of songs that will fit. It builds this selection, in part, based on which songs you've played most often or most recently, and which you've rated highest in iTunes."

I hate MacNN's link to external sites. They are all masked under a macnn.com redirector URL.

Really annoying not to see where you are going!

MacNN could be sending us to goatse.cx without us knowing!

MacNN is just RIPE to link to the direct URL.
