What? I like the iPod thicker makes it more eye catching. The 60 gig is still thin its the same size has the 4g iPod(not the photo). Also, i at the Apple store on wednesday i was gonna buy the 60 gig white but when i compared the white with the black i had to pick the black. On the color plate near the sides, the clear part, it makes the white iPod look old but i can barely notice it on the black iPod.
