Has the click wheel seen the end of it’s days? Has Apple gotten so tired of companies ripping off their idea of putting a direction mouse pad on their DAP for navigational purposes, that they are pulling it off? Is a touch bezel the only solution that will allow for a 4″ video iPod? Or is this just another crazy iPod rumor?
My guess is that what you see above is a combination of all four. What? I can’t accept all four rumored ideas? Why not I created them…
It appears that Apple found that putting the touch control on the edges of the screen is a lot more feasible than putting the touch sensors under a video screen. They also give the ability of more control, now that you can essentially offer more options for users to select.
