Re: Cheap iPods ?

»www.thinksecret.com/news/mwsf04apple.html
Appleinsider AND Thinksecret have now said it is coming, the two most reliable sources of information, IMO. It must be official :O I really hope Apple comes out with some kickass new higher-capacity/high-end iPods though. I will be selling by 15GB to get something bigger in January. Hopefully it will be a 60GB iPod-Pro PDA

I'm telling you, Appleworks has not seen any meaningful updates in years. If they can pull off Safari, they can pull off an office suite. Why else would AppleWorks be left to rot for so long? TextEdit is just a teaser.
