I’ll be checking out the news latertoday to see what Apple announce. The MediaGuardian has this prediction:

Apple to launch new iPod | New media | MediaGuardian.co.uk

Apple is gearing up to announce the sixth generation of iPods tomorrow, prompting fervent speculation about how the technology giant will develop its market-leading MP3 player.

The company is expected to reveal a touch-controlled, more video-centric iPod with a 3.5″ wide screen, similar in appearance to the much-hyped mobile phone it launched across the US in June, but could also include a new digital radio component for the first time.

Apple’s new iPod is likely to use more energy-efficient Flash-based storage, and wireless connectivity that would allow users to buy music directly rather than going through the iTunes store on their computers.

The choice of venue for tomorrow’s launch - BBC Television Centre - is being seen as an indication that the new iPod could be announced alongside new downloadable BBC content and the built-in radio.

It’s always exciting to see what they’ve dreamed up — even more so in the context of mobile industry development and innovation.
