The founder of the popular Web site Digg, Mr. Kevin Rose, offered
his visitors a peak at the new iPod, providing a photo of what he claims to be
Apple’s new design for its product and also several of its new features.
According to his blog post, the new widescreen will be
viewable in landscape format and not in portrait. Also, there is other information
available on the Web page. The predictions include a comment on the new iTunes
8.0, which “surprisingly” will contain new features compared to its
predecessor, a 2.1 software update will be released for the iPod Touch.
Another rumor which will make many users happy if it turns
out to be true refers to the price cuts for all the products in the iPod
family.
Kevin Rose did not disclose the source of his information
and he claims that everything he presented will be confirmed over the next three
weeks by Apple’s official release and presentation.
Apple’s policy when preparing a new release is well known,
as the company refuses to offer any sort of details until the official launch. The
strategy proved to be successful until now, forcing the newspapers and bloggers
to make predictions and start debates on the features of the upcoming products,
increasing the anticipation and curiosity of the general public, working much
better than most of the advertising campaigns.
As expected, the company did not comment on the rumors and
over the next few weeks we will see if Kevin Rose’s predictions were accurate.
