WSJ's video iPod review says what we're all suspecting, that the new iPods are great looking, have higher capacity than previous models, are astonishingly thinner and have bigger screens, and their video feature is cute but not the portable video player of the future. It also notes, like we're all noting, that Apple is not making that big a deal of the video feature, all things considered, for obvious market reasons: compelling content is not yet available, partly because it's too early and partly because The Media Industry is deeply scared. Also, it's a pain in the wrist to hold and stare at an iPod for the duration of an episode of Lost.

The article neglects to note that this is yet another foot in the door for TV-over-IP and podcasting to overtake The Media Industry in delivering content to people.

Also: iPod nanos are even smaller than they look in the TV commercials. But you probably already own one by now.
