Some eagle eyed Apple fanboys happened to be surfing the Apple online store when they came across this. Just another Incase Leather Sleeve for iPod touch right? Not really. Look at the description, “Custom fit for 80GB and 160GB iPod touch models.” Is this a leak on Apple’s part, or just a typo. Many were disappointed when Apple released the iPod Touch with flash instead of a HDD, because they wanted lots of storage. I think this was just a typo though. Someone who got the iPod Classic mixed up with the iPod Touch.

GMail seems to be one of the most popular email services available today, whether you use it on the iPhone or not. Unfortunately, a select number of users seem to be consuming a lot of storage space, especially for storing attachments like PDF documents and pictures.

In a blog post on the Official GMail Blog, Google Engineer Rob Siemborski says that “a few (users) are using Gmail so much that (they’re) running out of space, so to make good on our promise, today we’re announcing we are speeding up our counter and giving out more free storage”. GMail currently offers 2.9GB of storage, although you can increase that by paying for more. In contrast, both Hotmail and Yahoo offer 5GB and “unlimited storage”, respectively.

As Steve Jobs has already confirmed that work is underway on the iPhone2 that isn’t a surprise but if SmartOffice are to be believed then we may see it as soon as January 2008 at Macworld Expo, which would be a surprise.

Rumored improvements include:

• GPS
• expanded WiFi capability
• he ability to sync with email servers

The report claims that the discussions that Apple are having with manufacturing partners in Asia are likely to result in “major software and hardware changes to cater for non-US markets such as Europe, Asia and Australia.”
