More iPod rumors, you say? Is there any other way to lead up to an Apple press event? The rumor of the day is that the next generation Apple iPods are set to feature a digital radio tuner, allowing users to dial in their favorite broadcasts. Sounds pretty nice, but the fun doesn’t stop there. According to the same inside source, the MP3 players will allow users to wireless purchase music by way of a Buy It Now function. Does this mean that they will allow for iTunes Music Store browsing? We’d have to assume so. Given the amount of bandwidth necessary for such a transaction, we’d bet that Wi-Fi will be part of this equation as well. And the clock keeps a tickin’ away….only a couple hours until the big Apple event!
