The Case For A 7″ iPod
The more I think about it, the more I think these rumors are right, but we’ve all been interpreting them the wrong way. The new 7″ iOS device supposedly coming this fall is not an iPad Mini.
It’s a giant iPod touch.

An interesting counter to the direction of the rest of the iPad Mini rumors. It answers the nagging question I have with a 7″ iPad with the tap targets all squished smaller than my gorilla fingers. I’d love to see a mockup of what the iPhone UI on a 7″ device would look like.
I think Apple will get into this space–ceding this midrange size-and-pricepoint could cede some of the 10″ market eventually as well, and I don’t see Apple doing that.
