Apple drops Intel Mac Mini’s built-in iPod dock

February 15th, 2006

Upcoming Intel-based Mac Minis will not sport an integrated iPod dock, a variety of sources said to be familiar with Apple’s plans have claimed. Such a move was predicted late last year, with the precedent of discoveries made in March 2005 that the computer had the internal connections necessary for a built-in dock.
So might the Intel-based Mac Mini, but an AppleInsider report citing information received from “multiple contacts” said Apple has decided not to add the feature this time round.
he following November, Apple-watching website ThinkSecret said its sources claimed an Intel-based Mac Mini, codenamed ‘Kaleidoscope’, will sport a built-in dock along PVR functionality. However, AppleInsider this week said it had been unable to confirm the inclusion of PVR software.
