For weeks there have been Apple Tablet rumors, for a while all anyone could talk about was the new album format that Apple was creating specifically for the tablet. Then there were the rumors of multiple sized tablets from 6″ to 15″. When I think of all of those rumors plus the newly announced Apple “Rock & Roll Event” September 9″, all I can think if is a new 6″ iPod touch with support for this new album format. If you think about it, it would follow with a solid marketing methodology that apple has used in the past for the iPod line, Diversification.

I have read that sales of the iPod classic has been falling off and in it’s place the sales of Nanos and iPod Touches have picked up. Now would be a great time to expand the iPod touch line with a larger form factor device that is somewhere between the iPhone and the iTablet. Since most talk has been that the iTablet would use the iPhone OS, everything is in place. I can’t say that I have heard of any large 6″ inductive touch screens being sold, so this could be wishful thinking but I would run out and buy one if they did announce it.
