Totally agreed. Get rid of the jog-wheel. Use edge-based cursor movement (sliders? thumb wheels?). MacWhispers claims Apple is buying gobs of 5"x7" hi-res LCD screens, so this sort of device may be coming - but it sure won't look like that!

If Apple is already BUYING tons (or gobs) of 5x7 LCDs, at least you can hope that something is in production and might be announced soon.

Adequate Photoshop Masturbation.

How, pray-tell, would one move the cursor about with a jog wheel?!

Solid state interface, ladies and gents. In other words, use a touch-sensitive screen or don't bother making it.

Screed

Addendum: MacWhispers is reporting enclosures not LCD panels.

Based on your misleading thread title and the name of the atrocity you designed, you really need to get off the "can!

IBL

As per topic, the jog wheel is dumb and wouldn't be there and the speakler grills on the front? A hundred dots on each side? 2 speakers in the iPod's small size? Come on.

Interesting mock up, but not evidence of new iPods tomorrow. As this is misleading, it's locked.
