Under the premise that ‘more is better’, Toshiba is focused on a 240 GB iPod:

“Toshiba Corp. is developing technologies intended to enable future generations of the iPod Classic to boost capacity to 240GB.

The company recently introduced a 160GB 1.8-in. drive that is now available in this model. This is actually two 80GB platters joined together inside Apple Inc.’s iPod.”

Apparently, Toshiba believes that people want and need that much storage capacity for their iPod. - I am not going to calculate how many tunes that would hold.

I think they recognize that people are doing other things with these devices besides listening to music. I like to watch movies, including ones that my friends or I have made, and I travel. It’s easier to carry and whip out than a lap top or portable dvd player.
