Wi-Fi iPod Coming?
USI is hardly a household name, but there's a good chance that you own a product or two manufactured by the company. USI is the primary manufacturer for Apple, and it has hinted it will be building an updated iPod for the company that includes Wi-Fi.Details are scant, and there is no mention of a touch screen or how the Wi-Fi features will be implemented.
Apple is usually lauded for being innovative and ahead of the curve technologically, but it will be among the last to hop on the Wi-Fi-enabled media player bandwagon. Music Gremlin was one of the first, pioneering the use of the wireless technology in the media player field. Now everyone from Microsoft to Archos has stuffed a Wi-Fi module into their players. And yet, who cares? The iPod was hardly the first jukebox-style digital audio player when it first came out in 2001, but it was thanks to Apple that the technology became the global success that it is today. Will Apple do the same for wireless music?
We all just have to hope that the Wi-Fi iPod will be more Sansa Connect and less Microsoft Zune.
