They leave someone in charge of the news desk. The best scoop of the year is going down and AppleInsider has been missing since Wednesday.
And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if your way should falter
Along the stony pass
It's just a moment
This time will pass

Apple handled that nicely to a mainstream magazine that in return tells its readers that this isn´t anything to write home about. No scoop anywhere, just a well placed feature in a magazine.

Besides even if I think the iPod has finally matured enough to be invited into my home basically there is nothing special about this update.The iPod is moving towards perfection and today it went from 95% to 98% IMO. Nothing groundbreaking.

Thanks Anders, the update of the Ipod is not really a scoop. Futhermore, AI announced the fourth generation Ipod some weeks ago.

Yes, 10 days ago AI said September.

If the 4G iPod story isn't worth the front page then I am very confused as to the point of the front page. Future Hardware has had many many running debates on the 4G iPod, The front page has made comments in the past about them, and now it is a non-story, am I understanding that correctly?

Please, don't play me for a foul. I hang out on the Web for fun and this has been a favorite spot of mine since before I actually registerd here.

You can pass the bull off on the kids, maybe even my 6 kids, but please.

What bull? AI didn't get the scoop, so why all the hububb about posting an article about someone else's article that the AI writers are reading at the same time you are? I'm glad AI hasn't yet regurgitated what these original sources have already said. I'd rather they either follow up with more info, commentary or something more to add. It's been, what, a day? A Sunday at that. Kasper and Katie could be at the beach house for all we know.
