We all love to protect our gadgets with silicones and this latest leak might lead to some info about some upcoming Apple gadgets. There’s been not just images but products leaked this time, for sale on the popular Alibaba online trading site are what looks like new cases for iPod Nano and iPod Touch. And what I’m talking about is that it seems there will be a new design to the next generation of iPod Nano and iPod Touch. While I’m not exactly convinced about the iPod Touch ones, the iPod Nano looks to be slimmer and well, completely different as you can see.

Could it be that the Chinese manufacturers were just influenced by Engadget’s recent post, or do they actually know something that’s been kept so secretly that no one in the blogosphere knows? What I think is that we will definitely hear more of this news before the big day, September 9th when Steve Jobs will be announcing more Apple gadgets and hopefully some big improvements to the iPods…
