What could we expect from the future though? It’s certainly not guaranteed that Apple will continue making new iPod Touch models just because they released this one, but we can certainly see them measuring the interest and excitement that this release will generate, and basing their decision on that.
So far, people seem quite interested in the new iPod Touch and have been talking about it quite a lot online, so there definitely seems to be some hype about it that Apple can utilize.
But they may have a few issues to address first, such as the naming convention that we mentioned above. If they were to release a new iPod Touch next year, what would it be called? Are they going to reset the line, continuing at 2, or just keep calling every new device the iPod Touch?
Both options would be silly and would make little sense for the company’s fans, so hopefully they are thinking over this as hard as possible. In the end, the purpose of a product’s name should be to aid recognition, not to make the market more complicated. We can understand Apple’s desire to follow a unified trend among all of their devices, but when that trend seems detrimental to the interests of their customers, is it really such a good idea?
