I'm tired of my 4G, it's big and bulky and there's no color screen, album art, video capabilities, etc. So I had planned on eBaying it and getting a new (or I guess not so new now) video iPod. However, I've read rumors of the next generation iPod being released (actually it was rumored to be announced 3 months ago) and I don't want to go drop $300+ for it to be replaced in only a couple of months (that happened when I got my 4G)

Does anyone know of when this is set to be released?

whoa, i hadnt heard anything about another new generation considering they just released the new thin nano/video ones last fall

The new one is supposed to have 3.5 inch diagonal screen and it'll be touchscreen.

$300...rip.

I just got a refurbished 30gb 4G Color Photo for $125, including shipping, from eBay.
Grif: Yeah, and the people in the red states are mad because the people in the blue states are mean to them and want them to pay money for roads and schools instead of cool things like NASCAR and shotguns.  Also, there's something about ketchup in there.

I want an iPod video 60gb, I can get it used for $300 (with loads of accessories) or I can get a new 30gb for $300.

iPod is unneccessary. Buy a Macbook for college and get a free nano or $180 off of a big boy iPod.

I'm not going to buy a new computer for college a year before I go. :P

At this rate, that ipod would cost $1000. The current ipods cost like 400, and are pretty basic.

Touch screen iPod? Dude you know it's a hoax because I don't know if you all have seen your current iPod screens but uhh it's bound to have a few dozen scratches on it EVERYWHERE.

There was talk of it possibly having like sensors so you don't actually touch it but you hover, or some sort of glass screen or something. Apple isn't a company that's going to have an inelegant product.

Buy a JetAudio X5. It's usable on more than just Windows, massive space, decent design, support for a a lot of formats, and a competitive price. I've been using it for a while, and it beats out the iPod (except for the earphones, I might purchase prettier ones).
RLY...?

I need a clickwheel.

My iPod is the same size and less than 1/2 that price.
