Continuing to sell the old iPod touch is nothing new

A lot of people seem to be complaining online about the 5th generation iPod touch being sold in only 32GB and 64GB sizes, which makes the starting price $299. But if anyone remembers, Apple did the same thing when they sold the 3rd generation iPod touch. The 2nd generation was still selling in 8GB, and if you wanted a 3rd generation it was 32GB for $299 or 64BG for $399. The SAME prices the 5th generation iPod touch is selling for.

Although back then it led to a little bit of confusion as those that weren't aware thought that their 8GB device was a 3rd generation when it really wasn't. (I had to correct quite a number of people that insisted their 8GB iPod touch was not a 2nd generation product)

This time around, it's not as confusing. 4th generation has a 3.5" screen, 5th generation has a 4" screen.

So now can people stop complaining about pricing? If you think an iPhone 5 is "cheaper" then go for it. But keep in mind that with the data fees, it's actually way more expensive. I still think "iPhone 5" is a stupid name, it's the 6th generation iPhone.
