Red iPod, MacBook on Tuesday?

TheRegister ties together some thoughts to speculate that the previously rumored Red iPod may be coming this Tuesday.

This is based on this day being an otherwise big one for the Product Red charity which the red iPod is supposed to be a part of.

Also, since the iPod and MacBook are rumored to be released together, the site concludes the MacBook could also be released that day.

Take you partner, here we go again....

Red iPod = somewhat of a good idea.
MacBook = so amazingly over-hyped on here no matter what Jobs reveals it will disappoint.

Personally I'd like to see a refresh of the iPod line and some leather cases for the MacBook Pro. Oh, and an iPod HiFi Express to take on Altec's smaller inMotions. That would be so sweet to see the fall out on here from an event like that.

Maybe they'll release a red MacBook too. I'm hoping the MacBook will come in a few different colors, so a red one could be possible. Eh? Pleeeeease?

Maybe they could release the new PowerMacs too, only with onboard graphics.

I totally agree. But I like the red ipod idea. The red and black u2 one did very well....I think the red one will do great. I'm sure Apple has done some research in the case market to see what color is often purchased...I would have guess blue though.

Really? I've never once seen anyone with a U2 iPod.

Nor have I but you can make one at ColorWare and they look sweeeet.

The red wheel on the black background just looks very cool, much sharper than the all-black iPod and much tougher than an all-red one.

Well, I can't get ColorWare to work properly at the moment - my dial-up is being silly. But take my word for it, they look cool.

I've seen one person with one. And this is out of no doubt hundreds of iPods I've seen.

Somehow I doubt the whole "red iPod" thing. However, if they come through with a video iPod with a 4" screen, I don't care what color it is.

Now the new iBook/MacBook -- that would be useful. I already have by MacBook Pro, but a huge number of Maccies with their elderly iBooks are waiting to join the Intel fray. Some of them just want updates to the iBook, others want innovation, and then there are those who want the multi-OS options that people like myself have had for a while.

New 'Book -- makes sales happen.
Red iPods -- um... it would be cute to say it "puts them in the red", but no, it just has no real benefit for either Apple or it's customers.

Does anybody know how the iPod mini sales were related to the differnet colours?
Don't think the pink one was sold most... ;)

Don't think a red iPod would look nice. Maybe a silver one... like the iPod mini silver was?
