Video IPod: Some Plausible Predictions

Cult of Mac ()

Londoner Graham Bower has some plausible video iPod predictions, as well as nifty Photoshop mockups of the rumored device.

In Bower’s view, Apple needs to differentiate the 60/80 Gbyte iPod from lower-capacity, music-only offerings, and that’s done by adding video.

The video iPod will sync music, photos and home movies (“home movies away from home”), as well as play short music videos and video podcasts downloaded from the iTMS.

Other predictions include an onscreen keyboard, controlled by the click wheel; a return to the original iPod design (polycarbonate front, metal back); video playback in landscape mode; and a revolving click wheel to control playback when the iPod is held horizontally.

    No, no, no. This is all a pie in the sky. We won’t see a video iPod this coming tueday. Powermac/powerbook and minor 5g iPod updates will be the thing.

    lol… thats funny because they did release a video iPod and didn’t do anything about the Powermacs or the Powerbooks.

    HA! I successfully predicted the video iPod. And my prediction for tomorrow’s announcements: Pentium M PowerBooks.

    Just kidding.

    The PowerBooks will get iSights, as will Apple LCD monitors. We’ll see a sort of iPhoto Pro, but mostly it’ll be a cataloging tool with great RAW support.

    Also some other software surprises, and of course, the updates to the G5 towers (dual core dualies, yeah baby!).

    You heard it here first for some reason.
