The Wi-Fi enabled player is apparently being developed in the Xbox division. The gadget will be able to download songs wirelessly, giving it a distinct advantage on Apple’s iPod that requires a computer leash.
Little else is known about the supposed “iPod killer” but tech blog Engadget.com managed to secure a photo of the player from an inside source working on the project. Looking similar to Apple’s iconic player, the Argo features a three-inch display and a scroll wheel.
Also rumoured is the player’s ability to allow developers to easily port games to multiple platforms, perhaps providing a glimpse into the next-generation Xbox Mobile. Or would it be Xbox2Go?
Most likely, details will eke out of the Microsoft annual meeting on July 27. But in true Bill Gates style, expect only a few whispers of what kind of player the Argo will be. After all, mystery makes us want new gadgets even more.
