There is growing speculation about a new IPod Video coming out with a 3.5 inch screen. Basically imagine an IPod with a screen the size of the IPod and the buttons and scroll wheel are virtual.
Gizmodo have posted pictures of the what is supposed to be a patent application for the new interface, but there is a certain amount of doubt on it. Still if it is real and they can work around the scratches on the screen that people are complaining about today then this could be the way of things for MP3 Players in the future. IRiver have already done something similar with their U10. No more buttons, everything is a touch screen and the controls are all virtual. Better start washing the oil off your fingers now if your going to avoid smudging these things.

I allow people to comment anonymously, many blogs dont. If you want to express an opinion and throw insults my way but are afraid to back up your statements with an ID at least back up your opinions and insults with a logical argument.
Unfortunately due to spammers and people posting libel comments I've turned on moderation and just deleted the spam comments.
