Maybe...??
Here's another one...»www.engadget.com/2006/02/23/is-t···-tablet/

At least this one looks a lot more convincing than the first one. It looks like that's a product number on that sticker.

The product number on the display is for Mac OS X server 10.2.

Like he said except I think it is an 8.

Even the 9 looks like it could possibly be either an 8 or a B.

Seems like Engadget has posted a link to a video that supposedly debunks this "video iPod" as a hoax. Some point out that the video could be a "hoax hoax."

The part number "M8719Z/A" is the same part number as Mac OS X 10.2 Server, but several people feel it is a "B" not an "8".

So they have access to apple's prototype video iPod and then they place it on the floor? What were they thinking? They could have stepped on it and broken it.

Just because a word has an S in it doesn't mean it needs an apostrophe too.

The 5th gen iPod. There was a picture similar to the current one sitting on plastic wrap.

Semi off topic, but I will ask here anyway instead of making a new thread...

When new products are released and scheduled to ship in a few weeks, does Apple charge you when you purchase the item or when it is shipped? When does your credit card actually get charged? I'm just curious...

They charge when they ship.
