Good news! The new ipod touch is out and it may have some cool surprises coming! they now have use the Broadcom BCM4325 chip in the touch that can do wifi, blue tooth and FM! All that have to do is enable those functions and it will be amazing.

I own the iPod touch 16gb and am still hoping that a 3rd party app will come out that will give it FLAC support. Once you listen to an album in mp3 then listen to the same album encoded in FLAC you’ll wonder why you ever bothered with mp3′s in the first place. Sure it’s basically the new standard just like CD’s were in the 90′s but sound quality is very easily noticable once you progress into the FLAC arena.

Bluetooth would be awesome because a lot of people now have unlimited internet data as part of their mobile phone plan (including me), which can be shared with other Bluetooth devices. I’m not that interested in playing mp3s/divx, but having such a neat web browser that would work anywhere my phone does would be really handy. Most phone browsers suck, and I like really tiny handsets anyway, so a mobile phone + ipod touch connected via Bluetooth would be a winning combination.

How about divx or xvid for videos. It’s only the most popular video format. But since I have them there must be something very wrong with me.

I’m not much of a believer in FLAC or OGG, just thought you’d like to know.

Are you an idiot? These formats are technically best, free and well supported. (outside the ipod world)

By your logic we should all be Catholic, and the truth should be voted on.

Apple only doesn’t support those formats because they suffer from extreme NIH syndrome.

I’m not on board with it because not many player support it. Majority rules and all that.

if you are not onboard with FLACs then you arent an audiophile. FLAC is the internet community’s standard for lossless compression.
