I was looking at this: 9mm thick, portable, 2.5", 500GB hard drive. And apparently it's that time of year when I ask again why the iPod Classic is still limited to 160Gb. I think Apple should bite the bullet and produce the Pro Audio, iPod Classic Mk7. Actually make it bigger so it will take a completely standard 2.5" drive, put an iPod touch screen on the front, battery and iPod touch circuitry in the back and use a quality pro-audio output stage. Then offer the 500Gb version at $199.99 and the 1Tb version at $249.99. Those prices are probably unrealastically low for the margins and small volume so $100 more would still be ok.

If not Apple, then somebody else with an Android version of the same thing?
