MacMinute reports: “While Merrill Lynch analyst Steve Milunovich expects a U2-edition iPod, flash-based iPod and photo iPod, he does not think Apple will introduce a video player iPod or add wireless capability in the near future.” Milunovich, who spoke with key Apple executives, walked away with strong evidence that a photo iPod would include A/V output jacks for television viewing, but that video or wireless (Bluetooth/802.11G) functionality was unlikely based on practicality, power consumption and other issues.

"My main reason for buying the iPad 2 was its thickness... or lack thereof. It's so much nicer to use; especially over time as the iPad gets heavy. I'm involved in a government rollout of iPads and iPhones. We are trailing the original iPad at the moment. One of the most common questions we have from users is 'can we get the iPad 2 as the iPad 1 is so much heavier/thicker'."
