Video iPod? No I can not resist ;)
"It has come to my attention that a big video blog has been asked to be used for an Apple presentation tomorrow" This text is circulating the vlogosphere left and right - and in all respect I think - yes we are seeing a video iPod today - and no the vjblog was not asked ;) It will be the "video starter" pod with music videos and video blogs in mind - maybe Apple has teamed up with the BBC archive to provide some more valuable content - an iTunes - Movie - store fully functioning but without much "hollywood content" so they can make the big movie corpos a fully functional offer. What will that mean for the vlogosphere? BIG THINGS as the vlogger would be in the position to fill the videoPods with content that is just fine to watch on the small screen.
But in the end it could be something not iPoddy - or a combination of a videoiPod with a settop box acting as the iPod dock to watch the videos on the Home Entertainment system and this settop box has something like Airtunes for movies build in to fill up the iPod the settop box or whatever and on top the settop box could record tv straight to the iPod. Whatever will come we will see today some times - video iPod would be exiting but scary for the just starting vlogosphere who hasenīt fully found its way just yet...
UPDATE: And yes in addition to a chic new iMac Apple just announced the jump start for the vlogger scene - a video iPod with h.264 capabilities... I dig and report...
