What will Apple deliver this coming September?
September might be still many months away, but that doesn't mean we can't guess/wish what Apple might deliver for the upcoming iPod update. I'm being very conservative with my predictions.
iPod nano: keeps current form factor and features, doubles the capacity for same price point.
iPod touch: brings the current 8GB model price down to $169, adds radio and video camera to 32GB and 64GB, drops their price by $50 and introduces 128GB model for $449*. The iPod touch is the fastest selling iPod and a gateway to the App Store, it is natural for Apple to expand the iPod touch selection both upmarket and downmarket.
iPod classic: either an increase in storage -is it even necessary
- or a price drop, but can also be nothing more than new colors. The introduction of the 128GB iPod touch means the iPod classic days are numbered.
iPod shuffle: doubles storage at current price.
* Reminder: when Apple first introduced the iPod touch it was 8GB for $299 and 16GB for $399.
Let's get this started. What do y'all think?
