New iPod Peripherals? [Updated]
Reliable reports now indicate that Apple is poised to launch two new peripherals (not accessories) specifically for the 3rd Generation iPod owners. Unfortunately, details of the items are unavailable at this time.
Update: Appleinsider provides some independent confirmation of iPod peripherals coming. One "suggestion" is an input dictation device, but this information appears to be speculative.
The only additional information MacRumors can provide at this time is that the upcoming peripherals will require an iPod software update to utilize the new hardware.

apple has mentioned here and there that DJs are making ots of requests for things like pitch control.
i wager we'll see some more trick connectors, etc for specific uses for people like DJs and amatuer recording buffs.
apple offered CD burning of live PHISH shows I heard. How nuts would it be if half the crowd as recording their own experience?
fun fun
go apple
I have to carry a 30 gig ipod AND a sony MD rec device with mic I really want to to get rid of.
Sorry fro typos, it is Saturday night.

Screw pitch control, though. An iPod is far too crazy to DJ on. Reports of DJs requesting pitch control seem ot be bull**** to me--I am a DJ and regardless of how sexy the machine is, it is not made for performing.
I dj with mp3s and I would never use an iPod (screen too small, small controls...)... Traktor from NI is the choice IMO, I couldn't do without Traktor's flexibility, the loop options, and the filter... plus you can run it on the low-end iBook so a nice setup is not very expensive...

who said you can't transfer and store pics from your camera? it's a hard drive just like any other, just drop whatever you want in there, pics included. i use it to transfer data all the time. hell, i even i had the whole spiderman movie in there for while.
