With updates for iTunes, iPod Nano, iPod Shuffle, iPod Touch, iOS, iPad, and Apple TV – phew! – Apple gave a nice polish to practically its entire line of gadgets. But what happened to the iPod Classic? The bulkier, bigger-hard-drived device is still for sale. But no annual refresh is often Apple code for "we've lost confidence in that product." Then again, we all thought the same thing about the Apple TV before today.
As Gizmodo put it: "it's as good as dead if they're not updating it. So, we'll call it life support. Maybe, like with the AppleTV, the future of Apple devices is clouded gadgets with zero-GB."
