News from Apple.

Reuters reports that Apple may be buying TiVo. I’m not entirely sure what the purpose of that would be, considering that TiVo hasn’t been doing so well lately; the article suggests that potential buyers may be “looking to bolster their video services.” I suppose a few years from now there may be video-enabled iPods…

Speaking of iPods, Apple announced a revamp of the iPod lineup yesterday. There’s now a 6GB iPod mini, a 30GB iPod photo, a digital camera addon planned, a few price slashes, and more. The Apple Blog has a good summary of the updates.

Finally, The Cult of Mac reports that “costume designer Jennifer Rade won an award Saturday night at the Costume Designers Guild Awards for the clothes used in Apple’s silhouette iPod ads — even though the clothes can’t be seen.” Nicely done. Did John Cage win any awards for 4′33″?
