Amazon to launch iPod Store

By Barb Dybwad

Online retailer Amazon.com is preparing to launch an iPod store, to focus on the sale of the Apple iPod and related accessories. The store will be a subdivision of the
Amazon.com site.

After AppleInsider published the story, with an expected launch date 'in time for the holidays,' Amazon representatives confirmed plans for the store and provided a
link to the already in-progress iPod store.

The Amazon.com iPod store follows the launch of Apple's own iPod store. Analysts project that Apple may move nearly 4 million iPod units during the December quarter, almost doubling the sales of the previous fiscal quarter.
