I have seen many of the videos, and compared the results to mine, and that is why I think they are merely crushing the blacks and it is not a hardware issue. I suspect there will be a patch soon.

went to the apple store today in columbus ohio and found out that they are currently selling the ipod touch there with both the 8gb version and the 16 gb version. although they are selling them instore and you cannot purchase it with the laser engraved backing to it like you can if you were to order the unit online they do offer you the ability to send it in to have the service done *which is not really worth it because then you have to wait for it and you could have just ordered it online anyway* so i thought i would just let people know that its out in the world and you might just see someone walking down the street with something that looks like an iphone when in fact it is not lol

I just bought one yesterday and I can say I absolutely LOVE it. It's my first iPod (I know, how evil of me) but I'm certainly glad I waited! I can't get enough of this thing. If anyone wants pictures, videos, whatever, let me know.

If possible, try to test the black color issue on some video and picture and see if you get the same problem on the main menu's black, then tell us :D

No such issues here! It's working flawlessly. No strange coloring, no lagging (even in cover flow). Everything is as fluid as it is in the guided tour.

Frustrating, considering I'm 3 hours from the nearest Apple store.

I'm not far from an Apple store. I'm a well established (and long time) member on here. If you wanna do something with regards to me collecting / posting one to you if you pay me back (obviously!), PM me. I'd be happy to do it for a fellow Neowinian.

Every time I use it in public, people think it's an iPhone. I then have to explain the difference, and they still don't get it. :p

Well...I was just looking at some photos, and I noticed I do indeed have the issue; it is just VERY subtle, but still noticeable. I wonder if Apple will be replacing these.

      No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.

    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
