TagApple may soon announce a Widescreen Touch iPod, Beatles Edition at Super Bowl this season
No , I definitely don’t reckon that this is a rumor, Apple has the guts to make both the ends meet. Whole of the world knows what kind of reputation does Apple hold and I am that much of a confident person regarding this matter . And to prove the world their mettle Steve Jobs is hiding another surprise up his sleeves .He’ll announce the new iPod at mid time of the Super Bowl and that too in a bit different way. The rumors has it that he’ll also announce the collaboration of the good old but certainly not forgotten , Beatles. What a brilliant way to attract the people or should I say the ‘world’… Via: gizmodo

Apple’s iPod shuffles get the multihued treatment
So, Apple’s second-gen iPod shuffles have gone colorful. The iPod fans at iProng have got their hands on the colorful iPod shuffles. Well, the shape and make is still the same except the fact that the iPod shuffle has been colored in five varied colors. The only difference is that the word “iPod” and the Apple logo on the back are a bit closer now to white than the original dark gray. iProng has also pointed out that Apple’s peculiarly low-key rollout of the new shuffles today might have been a bit too low-key. Priced at $79.
The iPOD shuffle line now exhibits Spring colors!
The new iPOD shuffle line may be having a whole new lot of add-ons to its fleet of gadgets. Colored iPod shuffle was seen by a spokesman not in the market scenario but flaunted by somebody from Apple now that certainly not proves to be a rumor for sure. This may strictly speak for Apple’s strongly built reputation. Rainbow of shuffles would then be completed and that too for good. Though this grape-popsicle shade on this shuffle seems to be quite tempting and attractive, for me at least. Via: Gadgetell

Microsoft has got new colors to speak for themselves now! They have been thinking lately of showing off their ultra portable media player, Zune, in new bright colors! They seem to have got the idea of attracting the young generation with those smartly chosen bright colors. Quite a sporty thing the Zune is too. It’s in the news that the Red Zune may be released and made public with a hell lot of sports stuff to. The content may vary from ‘sports clippings’ to a fully downloadable ‘Sports Games’. No matter what may be the fact but they (people at Microsoft) should seriously think of getting a strong hold on to the competition with their counterpart- The iPod by Apple!

Apple apparently readies WiFi iPod for Q3 launch
The latest news around the hot tub is that Apple is prepping a WiFi iPod for the Q3 this year. The rumor is strong provided the information that Universal Scientific Industrial (USI) will supply the Wi-Fi modules and Foxconn will assemble the player. Anyway, Apple and Microsoft are not the obnkly two firms planning WiFi music players. Other companies such as Sony, Samsung, and Sandisk are also in the race. Apple will need to augment the battery capacity of its iPod in order to stuff WiFi functionality into the device or lower the power consumption. Apple iPhone played with us a lot and I think the WiFi iPod is all set to play the tricks now. Via: TGdaily
