Sounds a bit odd to me - wonder what they're getting at...

That's an extremely vague rumor and seems like it could easily be started due to the Wifi rumor.

What a circle jerk. Social is better than by yourself, whenever possible.

It sounded to me like Engadget was claiming that Apple was going to start some "service" based on the rumored WiFi functionality. I dunno - seems a bit unlikely to me, but I suppose they could tie it all into .Mac somehow?

I agree, it seems quite vague. Oh well, tomorrow's event will be here soon enough. :)

Hopefully its just a touch iPod with Wifi. Whatever it is (iPod, Circle iPhone Revision) it will be cool.

The Circle= At&T offer that enables EDGE. The iPod's firmware is the same, but when you buy the EDGE plan, AT&T unlocks the EDGE inside.... Soon to be hacked by yet another 16 year-old.:)

Don't know anything about EDGE, but can't there be something to make sure the EDGE can only be used with AT&T?

Yeah, it's going on right now inside of all of the iPhones. You can only connect to AT&T because of SIM cards, so I think that is what might be inside of the new iPods. You can activate the SIM card inside of the iPod if you want. If not, just stick with wifi.:D
