Apple MacBook Mini on its way?

April 28, 2009 by Insider Staff 

MacBook MiniWe’ve been hearing rumours about Apple prepping a “MacBook Mini” for what feels like aeons now, and while the company itself hasn’t made any announcements Apple rumour sites are buzzing with talk of an incoming tiny laptop.

So what are the latest happenings on the Apple rumour mill? Well, a listing for a device called “MacBook Mini” has appeared in the stats for IM client Adium. “So what? Anybody can change their computer ID listing.” You might say. And that wuld be true, but this is the exact same way the MacBook Air was outed!

BusinessWeek also claims that Apple is working with Verizon on a pair of new devices, one being an “iPhone lite” and the other a “media pad” focussed on video, music and photos but also offering calls via Wi-Fi. Now, the iPod touch is perfectly capable of handling these tasks, which suggest the device could be something larger – perhaps the rumoured MacBook Mini?

When we hear something solid we’ll bring you the news. So stay tuned folks!
