Oooh, they're cute! Ideas for two new nanos? The new iPod nano and the iPod nano mini? Not sure we would see Safari running on the new nano though - unless it gets the same 320x480 res as the current iPod touch. With the onscreen keyboard ther…

wobegon, good points. A cool solution would be if Apple could offer an 'insanely expensive' but also 'insanely capacious' iPod touch in the next upgrade (or whenever they get rid of the classic). Like 192GB or even 256GB. Intended as a full rep…

wobegon, I totally agree the 160GB iPod classic is a niche product. And knowing Apple, it's probably a doomed product since Apple hardly ever keeps niche products around (see PowerBook 12"). Yet its a niche product more likely because of its price…

Of course the next MacBook could have exactly the same lid as the MacBook Air. That would even be economical from a part production point of view. But is it likely? If you look at the inner frame: Top left and top right corners have the same w…

Hmm. Sunday midnight (US), early morning (Europe), sounds like a maintenance update. Probably just revising legal agreements. Or perhaps some father's day specials? New MacBook Pros anyone? Nah... not bloody likely.
