A Toshiba representative wouldn't discuss customer plans for the 1.8-inch drive, and Apple Computer declined to comment on the possibility of a boost to the music device, describing it as speculation. However, Apple uses Toshiba drives in its higher-end iPods and has historically snapped up the latest models. Most recently, it added an 80GB version of its video iPod in September. Products using the new drives are expected to be on sale in the first quarter of 2007, the Toshiba representative said."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/tshiba100g_550x428.jpg" /><br /><br />Yummy! 100 GB MP3 players. Here is a thought, if Microsoft can get a decent volume of these, having a 100 GB Zune out before a 100 GB iPod could make for a nice coup.
