[QUOTE="Dimitri, post: 528447, member: 25081"] Mmm. I really don't think they did that with the HDD-based iPods. Most of the releases were fairly cutting edge in terms of physical size/capacity. It's not like they could've just dropped in an 80gb hard drive on the 2G models. At the time of release, 32gb flash drives are still much pricier than 8gb ones, so apple wouldn't eat that cost. They'll keep their profit margin nicely sized on each subsequent update, and the speed of technology pretty much dictates what you'll get for the same price in your next updated ipod. [/QUOTE]
