Looks like the leak is out on the iPod Nano user interface. It is a huge step forward and should be quite impressive to consumers and investors alike. Further down, actual screenshots present the browsing of music both through the traditional search and the new iPod Nano Cover Flow. Colors also appear to be more vivid and the screens have been rumored to get a nice step up in screen resolution. Hard Disk sizes are expected to get a healthy upgrade to 12 or 16 GB.
Despite all that’s going for the iPod Nano, the potential for a full-screen regular iPod is taking center stage. The possibilities are endless as to the upgrades, but most are suggesting Wi-Fi, 3.5″ wide-screen, , touch-screen, and the ability to download music directly to the iPod. We’re going to remain skeptical as to whether or not a new regular iPod will be released, as it will most likely hinder iPhone sales.

Personally, we took the time to write about the dip and how much of a buying opportunity it would prove to be. Only about two weeks since the last buy recommendation, investors who followed our advice and bought in at $126 and $134 per share would’ve averaged about a 10 percent gain!
Tomorrow, Apple calls the media’s attention to “The Beat Goes On” Apple Event.
Stay tuned for further updates and news releases between now and then.

Rumors have been surrounding a possible addition to the multitude of Apple iPod Shuffle colors. The addition will be a (RED) product, which helps support charities and non-profits for Africa. Supposedly, up to $10 of every sale could potentially go to charities, without an actual price increase. Product (RED) merchandise has been selling like hotcakes for Apple’s current iPod Nano, but the addition of the red color should be quite complementary to the current product line.

The latest picture now shows a clear change towards the smaller, slightly wider size. Also, the traditional chargers have been scraped to be more like the iPod Shuffle style dock. The new dock will allow for charging and listening of music, much like the Shuffle’s dock. Otherwise, the earphones will go unchanged.
One of our frequent readers just wrote in to ask:
“Your iPod nano pics/link (rumored) are now up to date. New rumored nanos (with new pics) are out. Do you still expect a ‘lackluster’ release?”
-Lumi
Well, as the pictures and mock-ups become more detailed and of greater quality, the next iPod Nano update becomes increasingly more impressive and could have a tremendous effect on Apple’s (AAPL) stock. It will all be up to the user interface, which, as the rumors started, should be two sided and allow for Cover Flow.

Only two days before Apple’s (AAPL) release of new products to their line-up, investors and consumers are both hoping for multiple updates to the iPod line.
More pictures have now come out, displaying a clearer model of the iPod Nano update and the possibility of an iPod with a touchscreen interface.
While it seems all too soon to see a full-screen regular iPod, due to the fact that it should squash iPhone sales, anything can happen. The shorter, stockier iPod Nano doesn’t look half bad in the pictures, and it seems as though the screen width allows for better media viewing. Also, it appears as though Cover Flow may be adapted in the Nano update.

It has come to the conclusion of our writers that we should begin to write about a single company, rather than the broad perspective. This company has often been featured on the site and there are numerous times where MarketMatador.com were spot on, leading to tremendous gains from some of our readers.
While the stock market always offers a variety of companies to choose from, we’ve selected Apple Inc. (AAPL). By focusing in on Apple’s rumors, stock charts, and general news, we can clearly offer the best trading results in AAPL.
Some categories and portions of the site may be deleted, but for the most part, the site will stay very much the same and allow for a smooth transition to the one stock focus. We hope that our subscribers and readers can stick with us and follow in the site’s next step.
Without further ado, we’ll introduce Apple’s latest stock chart and show you what we think the next trade on the stock should be.

Look for Apple to have a lackluster release of the latest iPod Nano on September 5th, if the rumored designs actually represent Apple’s next product release. Either way, it looks as though the stock will be at a crossroads on Tuesday. Part of the market buying into Apple’s release, and the other selling off and taking profits before the release. If the market sends AAPL down more than a couple of points, look to buy-in.

Recently leaked pictures of Apple’s (AAPL) new iPod Nano have been all over the net the past few days. Media has been called to a September 5th news release. Apple’s legal team has been all over the biggest rumor sites, removing the pictures and evidence of the new iPod design and screen features. The newer iPod Nano is expected to be slightly shorter and wider, allowing for better video and screen viewing. Check out the pictures below:


Furthering rumors of a new stockier iPod Nano were new case designs by “U-Suit.”
