That's why I thought that a tablet or mini-tablet could be announced at next week's event.
It could be, although I'd believe an iPod netbook would be announced like that.
$150 price drops? I find it hard to believe that.
I find it hard to believe that Apple actually would WANT to price the iPod Touch at THE SAME PRICE as the subsidized iPhone 3G. So, if AAPL wishes to distance the iPod Touch from the iPhone, price it differently, don't make them both the same price!
I'm pretty sure it is, at least given Mac identifiers.
both minor updates. The iPhone went from 1,1 to 1,2 with 3G and GPS, which tells me that the second digit is the major change, while the first digit is the minor change.
No, I'm guessing the 1,1 to 1,2 change for the iPhone was a minor one, given that Apple only added 3G & GPS, while everything else remained the same (even the CAMERA remained the same). The iPod 1,1 to 2,1 is more than just a minor hardware revision IMHO because Apple needs to really distance the iPod Touch from the iPhone without cannibalizing too horribly the iPhone sales. I'm guessing this means a completely different network provider for mobile broadband in the States (I vote for Sprint),
maybe a way for iPod Touch 2.0s to be turned into prepaid iPhones, and
maybe adding PDF support for eBooks.
That is precisely why I want one. To create and edit documents and media as well as just playing them.
Yeah, I would too. That way, I wouldn't have to lug my BlackBook around just so I could take notes during class, or maybe edit a movie I shot, or maybe draw a diagram that I saw in class, or maybe even listen to a particular song, watch a TV show or movie, maybe listen to an audiobook.
Apple, the market is there for the taking. Fire away! *standing firm*
