this is true...right? no dock with photo ipods...wtf? Especially now that they have S-Video ouputs on the dock, it would sure be nice to get one included with the photo.

Also, i'm gettin a 60GB sometime soon with FreePhotoipods, but I'm wondering if I should just sell the 60GB model on eBay and then buy a 30GB on Apple.com. I really don't think I will need 60GB, plus they are much thicker...I am hearing. Also, I would be able to get something inscribed on the back of the poddy!

comments?

I don't really understand the point of a dock anyway. They're overpriced, and IMO pointless.

Seriously, I don't use a dock, only the crap it came with to charge it.

I think that the dock is a neat item to have especially because the Photo Ipod docks have S-Video outputs on them. But why aren't they included with Photo iPods?

you can use it as an external hard drive... so 60 is a great amount, and if it was more that would still be good, never a waste

can you actually use the photo ipod as an external HD for files and such?

yes, you can use it as an external HD, but the 60GB Model is much thicker...don't u think?

i went through this same situation. I chose to return the 60 to the apple store and i received $480 on a gift card. I got the 30 gig photo for $320 with money left to buy whatever accessories i want )
