What's that? Did you say something, Apple? Sorry, we weren't paying attention; we were too busy watching full-length movies on our Sony PSP's 4.3-inch widescreen.

All the tech news and gossip sites for the past week have been full of will-they-or-won't-they speculation about whether Apple was going to announce a video iPod at its big press event on Wednesday. Our best guess in the labs was that there's no way Apple would release a video iPod now, because it just doesn't make sense.

We were, of course, only half right. It still doesn't make sense, but there it is in black and white: at last, we can see as much of Bono and Madonna on our iPods as we want. The fact that we already see as much of Bono and Madonna on our iPods as we want, is presumably irrelevant. At least the blogs have finally stopped screaming.
