iPod mini redux imminent?
Oh, those ever-lovable Apple Insider tipsters are at it again. They tell
us to look out for the awaited revision of the iPod
mini line as early as next week. The minis are expected to get a 25% boost up to 5GB from 4GB.
The suspicion arises because of the timing of an iPod mini giveaway at the Apple Store in Nagoya, which started
January 22nd and is scheduled to end this Sunday, February 20th. The tipsters report that the end of the giveaway will
likely coincide with the introduction of the new minis.
All well and good, but… I just bought a 4GB mini and I’m not too disappointed about the extra GB I could have had. I
*will* be disappointed if the price drops on the 4GB models is significant. ;)

SUrely they wouldn't do this on such short notice. Unless they didn't want slow sales for 4 gig versions leading up to this? Interesting.

oh snap! I just bought a mini yesterday, if new ones are released within the next two weeks I'll go to the Apple store and scream like a 16yr old school girl until they give it to me.

I will be disappointed if it's only a 1GB upgrade, and if it is I'll be disappointed if the price doesn't drop.
If, on the other hand, the new mini is 8GB and the same/lower price then I'll be very happy :-)
