iPod classic being cancelled?

[tsukikage]

I heard a rumor on Future Tense that Apple might be cancelling its line of iPod classics, seriously, unless they replace it with something equivalent, that's gonna leave me pretty pissed, considering that neither the touch nor the nano come anywhere NEAR that capacity. If they do cancel it, I might actually switch to the Zune, since they're coming out with Unicode support soon.
Anyways, I gotta dash off to work now - 7.5 hour shift.

There is a rumor going around, since most other manufacturers are under the impression of "120 GB, nobody needs or uses that much storage" for their MP3 player, but it's just a rumor right now. It's because it's hard-drive based rather than flash-memory based, which means less durability. Even Microsoft is going to get rid of all their Zunes except for the HD version. But Apple's going to announce the new Ipods this coming Wednesday. Not sure what's going to happen, but the addition of a camera to the Touch and Nano seem highly likely.

*crosses all my extremities*
Yeah, they mentioned the camera rumor too, as well as labeling a tablet Mac as being a less likely possibility.
