Think Secret simply cannot leave it alone. Despite all existing legal worries, the site today revealed some insider speculations for Apple's next generation iPods.

Next iPod mini: Code-named Q22B ("Osiris"), very likely with a 5GB Seagate hard drive. Same form factor, with an updated firmware for new functionality. Expected to be finished in early February, but at least a month later before announcement or roll-out.

5G iPod: Code-named Q98, won't appear until the middle of the year at the earliest. May come out with either a 40GB or a 80GB Toshiba hard drive. New: a silver enclosure matching Mac mini, PowerBook, and Power Mac products.
