A very carefully worded press release. They didn't want to come out and say it, but the iPod product line has been discontinued.


Yes. We've changed the title above. More at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31331736.


I understand it's really carefully worded, but I tend to feel insulted by a press release that says everything _except_ the message, to make it less harsh.

Be honest.


The subheading is “iPod touch will be available while supplies last”

Seemed straight forward to me.


No, it doesn't. It sounds like they're having a buy one get one free sale, not a discontinuation.
