New iPods Soon? (or Hot Deal: 30GB iPod - $199)
The Special Deals section of the online Apple Store has refurb 30GB 5th Gen Video iPods for $199, down from $259 a few days ago. The 60GB iPod is now $299 (not sure what it was before). The nanos are at $109/129/169 for the 1/2/4GB version, respectively. Either Apple has gotten a bunch of these in returns or they're trying to clear inventory. I've never seen such a discount on current generation iPods before. Also keep in mind that both the nanos and the video iPods are coming up on their one-year anniversary. I think an announcement may be close, though it'll probably be after the current "free nano for edu" promotion expires on Sept. 16.
