Think Secret has published a rumour that Apple will release a full screen Video iPod

This is certainly more an Apple PDA than previous incarnations of the iPod. A touchscreen certainly makes it more useful.

Of course this is a rumour and not a fact.

Macrumors has published details of an Apple job

Apple Handwriting Recognition team is seeking an engineer who will be responsible for advancing gesture and handwriting recognition on Mac OS X. The ideal candidate will be an expert in the area of pattern recognition, with an excellent understanding of handwriting recognition issues.

This means (according to Macrumors) that Apple are getting serious about a gesture and handwriting interface.

This could be a new MacTablet or a better interface for the possible video iPod, making it more PDA like.
