Think Secret speculates possible touch-screen iPod for Christmas.

You know what?

It would make perfect sense.

Purr. Fect. Sense.

The shuffle? Revolutionized. The nano? As redesigned as could be (it’s not like there was that much room for improvement). The full iPod? As incremental, inconsequential un upgrade as ever.

I hate giving credence to an Apple rumor, but I find this one utterly logical and credible. Think about it this way: they couldn’t possibly not update the iPod on the Showtime event, because it would have been a dead giveaway that something huge was coming. So, here comes a hard drive boost, and bam! the big, revolutionary iPod right in time for Christmas. Oh, yeah, that’s just their style — remember when Apple launched the iMac G5 with iSight a mere three months before the Core Duo?

Also, imagine the Joker-like grin on Steve Jobs’s as he’d announce a full-screen iPodNewton just two days after Microsoft launches their 30GB Zune.

Replace those ugly iTunes 7 buttons & scrollbars [via]. God, those Aqua scrollbars feel good.
