Todays new Apple product pre-post
There is a lot of speculation that the new product will be an iPod with better video capabilities that will allow one to watch full length movies. Seems interesting but I hope that's not the case (who would really want to see a movie on such a small screen?). I'd rather like to see something that is actually new to their line-up along the lines of the rumored TiVo-esque miniMac.

But if it does turns out to be a revamped iPod then I can only hope that it's a real Photo iPod. Think of it: iPod with a built in iSight. They've already made the iSight ridiculously small, the iPod can already display images, and the scroll wheel has been dying to be used for something other than simply sifting through menus. By adding iSight to the iPod you can not only carry a ton of pictures with it, you would be able to take them too. It's a feature that most users would actually use, definitely more useful than watching a movie on a two inch screen.

I have yet to read anywhere of rumors of such an iPod so it would be one hell of a surprise.

I'm hoping for the home theatre solution, myself. I like the video iPod right where it is already, still focused on music, but able to do video if it needs to.

And... judging from the Engadget coverage, it looks like the Mac mini is getting a bit closer to a home theatre pc...
