The iPhone won’t be coming out for a few months yet, but we all know that it will eventually be here. Will prospective iPod buyers hold off on their iPod purchases and simply wait for the iPhone? Some experts are suggesting that iPhone anticipation could make a serious dent in iPod sales until June.
The iPhone will combine an iPod and cellphone into one device, and eliminate two carry around a a separate mp3 player along with your cellphone. For many people this will be the ideal all in one device. Those who were going to fork over cash for an iPod may be having second thoughts now; knowing that for a few hundred dollars more than the cost of an iPod they can own the ultimate cell phone.
iPhoneNews.ca thinks that sales will not be affected significantly, but don’t expect this to be Apple’s best iPod sales period…unless they release a widescreen iPod!
