It's only a rumor for right now, but AppleInsider is reporting that Apple may be coming out with an iPod boombox, which is, just as it sounds, a larger-sized iPod with boombox-like speakers. If that's true, it could be really cool, I think. What is known is that Apple plans to announce several new "iPod companion" products at MacWorld in January. Whether one of those is the rumored "boombox" or not remains to be seen. Additionally, it's being said that Apple may be rolling out iPod products with satellite radio capabilities. I'm going to go slightly out on a limb here and say that the both the boombox and the satellite radio capabilities are in fact a reality. I seem to recall Apple saying the video iPod was just a rumor not long before announcing that it was, in fact, real. The company knows how to stir up interest, and it also knows how to be sly about it. We'll see if I'm correct or not.
