With rumors of a flash card based iPod, let the naming begin...

flashPod
iPod flash
iPod micro
iPod ultramini
iPod mini2

What are your ideas?
 
iPod mini

how about plane and simple iPod mini. there was no name change b/w different generations of the iPod. when you buy accessories or have service done on it, it may be refered to as the iPod mini flash, but i really dont think the inner workings of the storage will require a new name for marketing. the only thing that would need a change of name would be a major overhaul in desing, and i am predicting keeping the same mini design and just replacing the HD in it so it will preform as it was ment to in the first place!! (for jogging or working out, you remeber all the people complaining about the 20 min skip time on it that after that the HD would be under too much stress to play)
 
The most descriptive would be iPod Flash. Would imagine that they will just call it an iPod with additional features.
 
The most logical name is iPod Flash, but I'm not sure if they'll name it that -- do everyday people know what "flash" (the memory) is? People will understand "flash" as in "flash of light," and there could be some slight confusion there.

I think it'll get a moniker like "iPod Micro."

I most certainly will not be called iPod Flash.
Since Apple just changed the name from iPod Photo to iPod photo, because of the inconsistency with the iPod mini naming!

My guess is iPod micro or iPod flash. :)
