Original Article:
With the certainty of Apple holding a special event sometime in late September, discussion has now shifted towards what might be added to the iPod product line, to get it ready for the holiday season.
In a claim by iDealsChina, the people responsible for leaking an accurate factory-state mold of iPhone 3G before it’s release, they now claim to have ‘insider’ information from employees and designers who are involved in designing the iPod touch and iPod nano, that Apple’s second generation of their iPod touch line will introduce GPS. If true this will mean iPod touch will be the first and only iPod, to incorporate a GPS chip …
Also, more evidence has emerged of the 4th generation iPod nano re-design. Rendered computer models and sketches suggest Apple is moving away from short and stubby (fatty), and going long and thin again. The iPod nano could also be getting a profile design change, with the rendered images suggesting a beveled oval shape.
Interesting stuff.
