More Info On 4th Generation iPod
Posted by Kent Pribbernow in "NEWS" @ 07:00 PM
"According to the source, who has reportedly toyed with a 4th generation prototype, the player may not sport a video output jack per say, but rather a greatly advanced dock connector. The feature is said to greatly utilize a much improved "Home on iPod" Mac OS X software technology, which is still under development by the iPod maker."
"It works a bit like the ... voice recording feature," the source said. "When a user connects one end of the video-cable into the iPod's new dock connector and the other end into the TV, it will switch the iPod into video mode."
Sounds cool, but based on this information, it looks like iPod4 is a long way off, and most likely won't ship until sometime in the fall of this year at the earliest. :(
