The marketing campaign was actually pretty good. At least, i liked watching the adverts.

QUOTE (Magical @ May 27 2009, 05:42 PM) Why's it better? A significant benefit of OLED displays over traditional liquid crystal displays (LCDs) is that OLEDs do not require a backlight to function. Thus they draw far less power and, when powered from a battery, can operate longer on the same charge. Because there is no need for a backlight, an OLED display can be much thinner than an LCD panel. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_light_emitting_diode As well as having a sharper image, clearer image.  OLED is the future. This post has been edited by redmonke: May 27 2009, 05:46 PM |

Sharper? My touch is incredibly good quality, and 36 hours seems pretty reasonable to me.

There reaches a point where you have such insanely good features they're just a waste. But my iPod is virtually always plugged into my mac/charging so it doesn't make a difference to me.

How dare you not call yourself a Mac fanboy!

No, I'm just saying I don't think the screen quality can be much better, and battery doesn't affect me. Surely it's only going to make a difference to video?

Wait, how can you say the screen quality can't get much better? I think I remember someone saying that in the 90s... And why would you ever say no to a longer battery? I can imagine a scenario (especially with me and my family) where we're on a road trip and the laptop battery dies... |

Let's face it, if you're interested in screen quality, you buy a blue ray player, or a bigger screen. It's not gunna make a difference on a 3.3 (smaller) screen.
Why would I go on a road trip for more than a week without a charger? Where could I go for a week without electricity? |

What if you forgot your zune under your bed somewhere for a week or two and found it. Charging would be so...inconvenient. |

Nothing better about it either. But most of the time my screen is off, so I don't get how having a more energy effecient screen would increase audio-playback?

You wouldn't have to have the screen off... What would you rather have, the ipod touch with a screen set to brightest doesn't last very long, but a ZHD with a screen as bright as the ipod's will last 60 hours. I don't think there's much of a debate as to which is better.
