More mini: iPod revision goes into production

As reported earlier, Apple has been planning an update to its iPod mini line. The revision will increase capacity by 25% over the current 4GB storage limit. The
mini revision is now in production in Asia, with Seagate as the supplier of a bevy of 1" 5GB microdrives.

TUAW reader Oliver was underwhelmed by the news:

"1GB more!! You must be kidding. With the smallest iPod at 20GB it's about time the mini got an update to 8GB, not
5."

What do you think about a smidge more mini? Big deal or big yawn?
