So probably this will be the last and the juiciest rumor of 2008. Arrington from Techcrunch cites his three independent sources that Apple is on its way to launch a new iPod Touch bearing a larger screen – just like the netbooks, 7 or 9-inch. Though it will be competing with netbooks, Apple’s larger iPod Touch won’t feature a physical keyboard, but the same set of features present in the current iPod Touch.
According to his source who has handled the prototype, Apple is already in talks with some OEMs from Asia for mass production. There is no word on what the pricing would be but the device is expected to get an official status somewhere in Autumn next year.
