Steve Jobs, Apple's chief executive, is going to brief journalists today at the BBC’s headquarters in London and at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. It is expected he'll announce a new full-screen version of the Video iPod.
Jobs will be hoping that a revamped iPod product line can help push Apple back over the 20 million-units-per quarter threshhold.
Coming just Just two months after the release of the iPhone, a widescreen touch-interface iPod will most likely also have at least 80GB of storage space, and is certain to be a hit.
The invitation sent to the media last week showed a silhouette holding an iPod, but aside from that Apple headquarters in Cupertino, CA, has not revealed any specifics.
A new iPod will be a body blow to Microsoft's Zune, coming as it does at the perfect point in the year for the holiday sales boom in November/December.
