New iPods around the Corner

The story is so unusual that we decided to publish it; it was reported by a journalist, being as well one of our european readers.
He requested from Apple an iPod 80GB unit for writing a review about it. Last week, he received it, and started analyzing the product. Yesterday morning, he received a call from Apple urging him to send the iPod back as soon as possible. The reason: Apple wants to get all iPod samples distributed to news network back for next Friday latest.
Of course one can imagine many different hypothesis regarding the true reason behind such urgent recall, but as illustrated by the title of this news, we think Apple is preparing the introduction of the long-awaited revision of the iPod 5.5G.
