iPod mini redux imminent?

By Barb Dybwad

Oh, those ever-lovable Apple Insider tipsters are at it again. They tell us to look out for the awaited revision of the iPod mini line as early as next week. The minis are expected to get a 25% boost up to 5GB from 4GB.

The suspicion arises because of the timing of an iPod mini giveaway at the Apple Store in Nagoya, which started January 22nd and is scheduled to end this Sunday, February 20th. The tipsters report that the end of the giveaway will likely coincide with the introduction of the new minis.

All well and good, but... I just bought a 4GB mini and I'm not too disappointed about the extra GB I could have had. I
*will* be disappointed if the price drops on the 4GB models is significant. ;)
