The new 32 gig Ipod touch...

...is $499! 

You can get a blu ray player for less than that. 

The touch's internet is wi-fi, not the Edge system.  Chances are, if I'm close enough to get a wi-fi signal (especially one not password protected), I'm close enough to a computer to use. 

Just doesn't seem worth the dough to me.  Thoughts?

I have nothing against Apple.  I love their products.  I'm definitely a Mac person.  But I can't see myself shelling out $500 for an Ipod touch when the IPhone and the PS3 and most other cool technology is cheaper. 

I mean, I guess they couldn't go lower based on the price increase from the 8GB, but who would pay $500 for an Ipod?

With the way I've been capping lately, it's a long ways away!
