A 6GB iPod mini?

There were some rumblings earlier this month that Apple was going to come out with some sort of update to the iPod mini around the end of August; we would have guessed they'd introduce some new colors or something (or perhaps one that doesn't fade as easily), but could they be planning to intro a 6GB model? Hitachi, the company which makes the 4GB 1-inch drives Apple uses right now, says they have a 6GB
version on the way that will be ready sometime in the 4th Quarter of this year. Probably not early enough for Apple to announce a 6GB iPod mini next month, but possibly just in time for Apple to have a new one ready for the big holiday shopping season. Not that they're not already having trouble keeping up with the demand for the 4GB model, but you know.
