iPod Soon To Have Touch-Screen
07.10.07 - 02:26pm
Gene Munster, the well known Piper Jaffray analyst, is expecting the current iPod to soon be morphed into a new iPod with the iPhone’s touch screen interface.
“We believe the iPhone reveals much of what the iPod will soon be,” Munster stated. “Specifically, we expect Apple to release high capacity iPods based on OS X sometime during or before Macworld ‘08 in January.”
Munster says that he expects the new larger screen iPods to be priced around $299. He does not expect them to have internet capabilities.
Munster also says that he does not expect the iPhone to cannibalize iPod sales, simply because, “most of the current iPod base is simply looking for a better iPod.”
The video iPod is due for a redesign as it has not happened since it was first launched in October, 2005.
