iPod mini to see 25% storage increase in 2005
Apple Insider reports the iPod mini is slated for a revision that will increase its capacity by 25%, up from 1000 to 1250 song capacity. The new mini will reportedly be based around a 5G hard drive, as with competitors Dell Pocket DJ and Rio Carbon.
Apple learned a lesson from being unable to meet demand on the iPod mini after its release in January of this year.
Insiders expect Apple to amass a sizable stockpile of the players before making an official announcement.
