iPod Shuffle and Mac Mini

Well, the keynote speech is over and the biggest revelations are the iPod Shuffle and the Mac Mini, both looking very nice indeed…

The iPod Shuffle looks like a USB flash drive, and comes in 512mb or 1gb capacities, and, interestingly enough, comes with no screen, just the standard iPod controls grace the front of this tiny digital music player.

Now this has been long rumoured and to be honest, I have no need for it, my iPod is still going strong, even if the battery is slowly dying on me, and if I was to get a new one, it would be a bigger size than my current 20gb, but this little thing looks great for people who have a small music collection or just want a small selection to listen to on the go, perfect for the gym and what not.

Now comes the Mac Mini, an iMac without a monitor, all you get is that tiny box, and full of tricks it is too… And for the cut price of $499 it looks to be quite the bargain for what could well be an Apple Media Center (as opposed to the fake iHome Media Centre that was circulating over the last week). This look very tasty to say the least, and it’s something I might be interested in…

Oh well, a guy can dream, right?
