Well if its not a screw up then Apple lawyers will not go hungry this month.
Larger Shuffles are inevitable. As flash storage drops in price the demand is going to keep going up – although I can see it topping out at 10GB just because transfer times. I wish that the interface wasn’t only USB 2. A Firewire 800 option would be nice.
Wouldn’t be the first time that a price comparison site has jumped the gun and accidentally revealed the existence of an unannounced new product (or screwed up and “announced” a product which doesn’t exist), but apparently some listings have turned up on Shopping.com for both a 2GB and a 4GB iPod shuffle. Neither listing includes any extra juiciness like a release date or pricing, but we’ve been hearing rumors about 2GB and 4GB iPod shuffles since May and supposedly Apple’s planning to announce a mess of new iPods at next month’s expo in Paris.
