Large iPod Touch is Latest Apple Rumor
TechCrunch is reporting a rumor that Apple plans to launch a larger iPod Touch with a 7 or 9 inch screen in Fall of 2009.
Apple has been experimenting internally with large form tablet devices for years, one source says, but there was concern that users wouldn't like the device. The difference now is the iTunes app store, which has thousands of games and other applications that are perfect for a touch screen device with an accelerometer. Apple says more than 300 million applications have been downloaded since the App Store launched in July 2008. Combine the App Store, iTunes and a browser and you have one heck of a device.
Macrumors says the rumor is consistent with "historically reliable sources that Apple was working on a mini-tablet or PDA-like device about 1.5x the size of the current iPhone."
We would greatly prefer this rumor of a large iPod Touch to the rumored iPhone Nano. An iPod Touch with a decent sized screen could be used at home for watching video and for reading. Even better would be a table-sized iPod Touch that could be use for taking notes and for reading books or online newspaper and magazine articles. (via Techmeme)
