The debate on firewire is pretty much done. While Apple supports them on the computers for legacy purposes,
Wrong. Macs have been using a mixture of Firewire and USB since the original iMac. In fact they were one of the first to really support USB in a big way. Firewire has found it's market in video, there is no need to push it elsewhere. I'd still take a firewire external harddisk over a USB one any day.
Dropping firewire on iPods is a sensible business decision. Saves money, removes complexity, and provides a consistent expereince on both platforms.
