I want to buy an iPod. Don't shove Zunes or whatever at me, I want a new iPod. However, I realize its been a year since the 80gig video came out (or something like that.) what's the word on a new version coming out?

IMHO, best money is on a Nano, they are small, sleek, and will do pretty much anything you want.
It wouldn't surprise me if they release the next gen iPod this holiday season to be honest. I really can't see them putting all there effort into the iPhone when it will only be available to those with Cingular.. At&t whatever it is called now. I don't doubt them putting a lot of effort into the iPhone of course, but to not release a new iPod with touchscreen is pretty dumb, I think.

Is 30 really too small?
I have a 30GB Zune, and the majority of the space on it is taken up by videos.
I kind of want an iPhone considering I'd get the new phone I need and the new iPod, but... I don't want to pay for the fucking data package.
There is NEVER too much. Especially with video stuff.
i would just recommend getting a refurbed nano from apple's website. i got a 4gb for 129 and it's the same as a brand new one

Good start to the day. Pity it's going to be the worst one of your life. The light is now on.
well from rumors around the internet..
it should be fine for a phone. it should be a better ipod.. though it's limited in capacity since it's flash.
the internet browsing is good if you have wifi you can connect to, but the 2g/edge/whatever-it's-called speed of att's network sucks for internet since it's slow (no idea how this is with uk's carriers)
it's pretty pricey at 600 for the phone, plus phone plan, plus data plan.. all this with a 2 yr contract required
While I adore my Shuffle and totally want more space...
How the hell am I going to navigate 4gb without a screen? They made the thing awesome, clip and all. But the size doesn't lend itself well to navigation, which doesn't lend itself to much more than 1gb.
I'm sure they've got their team working on this very issue!

That'll be the critical issue when it's launched in the UK. We usually get good discounts on the handsets over here, with the basic models being free with a cheap contract.
For example, you can get a Blackberry 8800 for free on a pay monthly line rental of £40 a month which include 400 mins of calls & 500 texts a month (plus entry into a Justin Timberlake tickets prize draw, wouldn't you know).
You can also get MP3 player phones for free on similar deals. So logically the Apple iPhone is going to need to be available for free or cheap (Say £50-£100 max) for it to be competitive, although i guess it's desirability may allow it to get away with a high ask price.
yeah, in the US, we have a bunch of phones for free with any phone plan. they're not too amazing, but they make phone calls fine. the razr is now free, the chocolate is buy one get one free, all these so called wonder phones are now gratis after being out on the market for so long. the way that they are hyping the iphone is that it's not going to come down for a long time because of the exclusivity with the carrier (at&t). carriers are used to so much power and att actually gave apple concessions so that apple would stay exclusive with at&t. i dont see the price of the iphone coming down anytime within the next year, but it's rumored that there would be iphone nano (so to speak of a cheaper version) and 2nd gen iphones coming out soon after the 1st gen
No shit. My 30GB iPod Video just isn't big enough any more. 80GB = want.

I wouldn't expect a touch screen ipod for at least a year, why on earth would apple risk cannibalizing iPhone sales by releasing that so soon? Also note that you can't use an iphone without a service plan.
