Video iPod Oct 12?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the rumors-flow-like-honey dept.

Petey_Alchemist writes "Apple Insider is reporting that Apple will release a video iPod on October 12th, possibly in conjunction with the announcement of Apple's fourth quarter results. From the article 'Although details are scarce, sources who claim to have seen the new iPod describe it as being similar to Apple's 60GB iPod photo player, but several millimeters thinner. The device reportedly sports a smaller click-wheel akin to that of the iPod nano's, making way for a larger, higher-resolution color display that extends further down the face of the device.' "

    This is a good explanation. Thank you. This makes much more sense. There is, however, a conversion when loading mp3 to an iPod? I knew that there was a very close relationship between iTunes and iPod. It concerned me that their end game is to tie you to their retail service much the same way that MS has done by slightly altering their implementations of standards.

    These are very good points. I think that I get it now. Thanks for the reply.
