There’s been lots of talk and lots of pictures of the full-screen iPod video that is supposedly coming this April 1st.  Many speculate that Apple will amaze the world for its 30th anniversary with this amazing near 16×9 all screen iPod that will, like the 1G and then the iPod mini, re-invent the digital audio player market with a touch-sensitive screen that will bring the famous ClickWheel into view, but only when needed.

Now there seems to be some action going on over at the patent office with some diagrams that strangely look a lot like an iPod with the very disappearing ClickWheel we keep hearing about.  Documented on February 2nd, this could very much mean this invention is done and is ready for prime time and now just needs to be protected.  That said, it’s possible then that we indeed may see a full-screen iPod video.  I just hope the 80GB stat is right, ’cause man, I need that storage!
