New Video iPod coming soon?

by Sze | Filed under Apple, MultiMedia

The Cupertino, Calif.-based company recently informed some of its partners and big box retailers that it has placed the top-of-the-line 60GB fifth-generation iPod on its 60-day “at risk” list. The 30GB iPod was not placed on the list………

when Apple makes note of an item being placed on an “at risk list,” it could mean one of many things, or nothing at all. Simply, it’s the company’s way of warning resellers that it may make changes to that product, replace it with a newer model, offer a price reduction or discontinue it, among other things…….

With several analysts — and the tech sector in general — expecting Apple to soon introduce a video iPod with a larger display screen, people familiar with the company’s operations say nudging such a product into the iPod line through the highest price point would pose the least risk.

Does this mean Apple will soon launch the new Video iPod with a larger display screen?
