Another reason why we love our readers: this anonymous submission to our galleries is a nearly photorealistic computer rendering of all the iPods currently sold by Apple, plus three reader-imagined concepts of how an even smaller (presumably flash-based) iPod would look. Yeah, looks like the SigmaTel STMP3550 would fit in there, alright. Great work, anonymous.
For a full-sized version of the image, visit the iPod Concepts Gallery and sort by Date (-).

That is an increadable rendering. I would love to see an iPod flash or iPod xMini to be like that!

WOW! Now that is AMAZING. Such a great job done on all details in every perspective.
Although I love my Silver mini to its fullest extent, I’d love to grip my claws on that black iPod tiny…or is going to be called iPod flash? Whatever it’s named to be, Apple needs to take notice and send that baby into production. Can someone please email Apple and ask them to open their damn eyes…(they’ve blocked my email, LOL)
