New iPods, iTunes and price drops coming soon?
August 23rd, 2008
Digg’s founder Kevin Rose loves to push out “rumors” about Apple products, and he’s rarely accurate. Still, he’s right from time to time, and it’s fun stuff to listen to.
His latest rumors:
- Revamp of entire iPod line.
- Small cosmetic changes to Touch, Nano to see significant redesign (see pic on the right).
- iPods to see fairly large price drops to distance itself from the $199 iPhone.
- iPod touch 2.1 software, iPhone to get update very soon after.
- iTunes 8.0 (”it’s a big update w/new features”).
- All of this coming in the next 2-3 weeks.
Most of it seems believable. Other sources have been whispering about new iPods, a price drop on the Touch makes perfect sense, and we know that Touch/iPhone 2.1 is coming next month.
In this case, Kevin might be dead accurate. We’ll find out soon.
