Looks like they didn't catch the word "five" on that particular page-- everything else is correct (pricing, products).
For what it's worth, I think Apple is going in the wrong direction now. The whole point of iPod was simplicity, and now the product line is getting crowded.
I don't see the point of having both a 4 and 6 GB unit in the Mini line-- they should have just replaced the 4 with the 6 and reduced the price to $229.
Also, I don't see the advantage of the iPod photo at all. It reminds me of those cartoon grandmothers who say "let me show you photos of my grandchildren" and then their wallet accordions out to about a thousand photos. My kids are cool and everything, but I can't think of anyone beyond their grandparents who would want to see photos that I'd be carrying with me. The only good I see in it is being able to transfer photos from your camera to the iPod, thus saving flash memory space on your camera.
Steve won't add an FM tuner to the iPod, but he will add all this other stuff. I don't get it. 'Course, he's the visionary, not me. :-)
