I remember watching this webcast. It was held, I believe, in Apple's (small) town hall auditorium and everybody and their brother knew that Apple's big secret was going to be an MP3 player. Looking back now is how much folks hated it. It was mac only. It was expensive ($399 for 5GB). The overall reaction from the tech pundits (and just about everyone else) was that the iPod was not a game changer.
Pretty funny. I still have my original 5 GB iPod and it still works like a charm. One of its coolest things about that 1st generation iPod? It came sticker on it with the words "Don't Steal Music".
