With little publicity Apple has released new, higher-capacity models of the iPhone and iPod touch. The new iPhone boasts 16GB of storage and is priced at $499.00 (the 8GB model remains at $399.00, so it's $100.00 more), and the new iPod touch has 32GB, also priced at $499.00, again, $100.00 more than the 16GB version. Although the price is still pretty hefty, it indicates that the capacity/price ratio on these flash-based devices is starting to move in the right direction. C'mon SanDisk where are our 32GB SDHC cards and 16GB MicroSDHC cards?? Even once I get a 16GB MicroSDHC card the new iPod touch will still have 14GB(!) more than my N810.
