The light traveler’s best (techie) friend just got a lot more visual:
So we just got our hands on the new iPod touch… and boy is it small. As you would expect, the functionality of the device is identical to the iPhone 4, as well as the functions of the cameras. In essence, it’s a much thinner iPhone 4, with no cell radio and a lower quality still camera. The design is relatively in keeping with previous touches, so no major surprises there, but the inclusion of that A4 chip, higher resolution screen, and front and back cameras makes it a far more versatile device. Take a look at the gallery below if you’re wondering just how much of a sliver this is — it makes the iPhone 4 look… fat. - Engadget

It seems that a sizable percentage of OBOW readers use the Touch or iPhone and it’s not hard to see why. I’ve been thinking lately about the difference between Apple users and Apple people. I count myself as one of the former, not the latter. Is it inevitable? Do all users become fanboy/girl drones? I suppose not. There are no little white Apple-with-a-bite-gone stickers on my tiny car yet.
