I have been listening [and reading] to a lot of speculation out there in the blogo’media sphere (1) about what the new iteration of the iPod will be. I think that MediaLoper has gotten it right. I mean to say that if I were behind it, this would be it – except that there would also have to be the 30/80/120 GB hard drive models.
MediaLoper makes some valid points about how powerful of a media player the iPhone sans the “phone” would be! Personally, I am holding out for a 30/80 GB hard drive version of the iPhone because then I can squeeze all my portable needs into one device and that would slim down what I have to carry with me 24/7. No, really my Treo 700p and my iPod are with me all the time, with one exception – when I have to charge them.
This change in the iPod would really add to it’s aura of being the #1 digital music player on the planet! Many complain about the lack of WiFi and other features that they would like to have included in their iPod. This could be Apple‘s next move and maybe they are just waiting for the Christmas Season to begin, I sure don’t know. I do, however, hope that this is where Apple is going with the next generation of the iPod
