                    This was the first Ipod that was launched and now which is on top hot selling gadget on amazon and ebay creating enormous likes and now a fashion among youth as a showoff how cool you are . However the day when it was launched , it was not welcomed pleasingly just like the current gadget from same brand apple  -  the Ipad . Following were the [ negative ] reactions ipod welcomed .However today , these comments have turned tables and are meaningless but worth reading :D

   iPoop... iCry. I was so hoping for something more.

    Great just what the world needs, another freaking MP3 player. Go Steve! Where's the Newton?!

    I still can't believe this! All this hype for something so ridiculous! Who cares about an MP3 player? I want something new! I want them to think differently! Why oh why would they do this?! It's so wrong! It's so stupid!

    All that hype for an MP3 player? Break-thru digital device? The Reality Distiortion Field™ is starting to warp Steve's mind if he thinks for one second that this thing is gonna take off.

      Not revolutionary. Big capacity mp3 players already exist. With Creative Labs' entrance into the firewire arena, future nomads will have similar specs and better prices.

     A bad fit. This product is outside Apple's core competancy - computing devices. When many are calling for a pda, they release an MP3 player.

       Without a future. This Christmas you will see mp3 players be commoditized. Meaning that the players from Korea will be way less expensive tha iPod. The real money is in DRM and distribution (ala Real Musicnet). If Apple were smart they would be focusing on high gross revenue from services rather than a playback device
