I can't say that I love the new iPod. Thinner is good, but rounding both sides kind of destroys the aesthetic and the four buttons across the top is just bad (at least make the outer edges line up with the screen). I never liked the touchpad "wheel" and buttons without any tactile feedback sounds like a usability nightmare.
The software sounds interesting though. The one thing that I have always wanted is the ability to create playlists on my iPod, which is now possible. The customizable menus sounds pretty interesting as well.
