The new Ipod will be released tommorow April 5th. I cannot release my true identity but i can tell you that im affiliated with Apples website. I have peronally seen the ipod and have done work on the webpage introducing the new ipod. The ipod will have a 3.5 inch display starting at 50GB and going up to 100GB. It will also feature bluetooth technology. The battery on the ipod will playback up to 30 hours of music. And 15 hours of video. This is all i can tell you but rest assure that you will know tommorow.

I work with Hashmir. Although he did work for Apple on the website, and he did infact set up the page for the new iPod, the new iPod will be released sometime in June, and content revisions will be added to the web page of the new iPod, since June is a long ways from now. Anyway, face the reality... a new iPod with no press release? Also, Hashmir is making numbers up in his head. It will feature bluetooth, but it will feature 4 hours of video playback, not 15, and there will only be 15 hours of music playback. There will be two sized hard drives, 40GB and 80GB. Eveything else Hashmir said is true, though.

I'm Production Coordinator... and I worked on a light fixture at infinity loop, and saw the new iPod. It has a 79' screen, .01 hour battery, and has blueteeth... I think... as I didn't have my glasses on and was a bit drunk (it was after 11am!).

So you should expect and upgrade sometime between now and 2049. COUNT ON IT.

So in other words... they restated a rumour? Why would Apple unveil on a Wednesday?

Yea. It was mainly funny because of the poor language used on the webpage I linked to. It looks like someone has hacked that web page because now it has a debunk from someone named "Logan."

As far as Apple unveiling on Wednesday, the current iPod was released on Wednesday, October 12, 2005. So, that wouldn't be a first.

I saw the "segway" I just thought it was too obvious and predictable for anyone to make a joke. You proved me wrong.

You two are like an old married couple. The back and forth jabs just don't stop. Give it a rest already!

I'm not following him around just to make obvious jokes.

A segway is a personal motorized transport device. A segue is a transition statement from one topic to another.

Babar lies.
He isn't a snake! He's an elephant! Everybody knows that! If he lies about being a snake, clearly he is not to be trusted.
