I’ve posted before about a super sized iPod, The idea of Apple putting out a netbook, or UMPC sized device that runs on the iPhone OS, is of course, attractive to a lot of us. There has been a lot of scuttlebutt on the intertubes today, focusing on an article from of all places, the Financial Times.

The main news is that apple are trying to increase sales of Album content rather than songs, singular. Apparently there is greater financial benefit in that? Speculation that this will also be an eReader killer, is included in the same article.

As always, at least the rumour is consistent, the device is said to have, any thing from a seven to ten inch touch screen. have wi-fi, and a touch screen.

“It’s going to be fabulous for watching movies,” said one entertainment executive.
”The new touch-sensitive device Apple is working on will have a screen that may be up to 10 inches diagonally.”

As always, information like this should be taken with a grain of, neigh, a tower of salt. The most highlighted fact from the post, is that we will be seeing this new device, in less than two months.

Whilst I’d like to see that happen, I some how question the employment of creative writers at the Financial Times.
