I suspect there will be a new iPod Nano device before Christmas. A new Touch seems very likely.


Apple has released a new iPod nano in September every year for the last five years, and a new iPod touch in September every year for the last three years.

Predicting new iPods before Christmas seems like a safe bet.


My money's on a Nano/Shuffle hybrid. The small form factor of the Shuffle with a tiny touch screen (~1.25") and ultra-simple UI @ ~$79.


iPad Nano!

Same as the iPad, but in a small convenient package that fits in your pocket.


An iPad Nano may be quite unlikely in 2010, but the possibility is real, according to a recent Digitimes rumor [1]:

The sources noted that Apple has recently placed new iPad orders to Taiwan-based component makers for the fourth quarter of 2010 and the first quarter of 2011 with 9.7-inch, 5.6-inch and 7-inch models all included.

Admittedly, the same report notes that supply of OLED screens is limited, and may not ease until the second half of 2011.

iPad Nano? Isn't that already available? (iPod touch / iPhone)


Yes, that was the joke.

Apparently it was either not funny enough or not obvious enough.


I voted you up, but jokes are usually off topic on hacker news and get voted down pretty quickly no matter how funny.
