i am not too keen on a touch screen video ipod. it would need to have an anti-fingerprint screen.

crazyates

09-02-2006 11:39:43

it probably will, i mean they've been working on this for 2 years? it better be worth it...

(good thing i havn't done the premi iPod site yet wink i'll keep my 30gb for now and then do this later)

I hope they come out soon and then offer it on YFVI so that way I can finish freeipods for the regular video then get the touchscreen when they come out from TFVI. Doubt it though.

crazyates

09-02-2006 11:45:33

no, it probably won't be out for a while

i heard sometime this year, some guy posted on some apple forum that everyone is stupid if they get the video ipods now cuz their crap compared to the new one that will come out in a few months, i love mine!

Man it seems like they JUST came out with the video iPod. Give people a chance to enjoy their new iPod before putting out new ones. Every time I see someone walking around with an iPod, it is always a old black and white screen. The video iPods aren't even really as widespread yet so it's crazy that they are putting out a new one.

I was wondering the same thing. I think I'll take it tho, cuz I need an iPod, then maybe like 7G or 8G, I'll sell it/trade it in for a new one. I wish I knew a release date. My bro got the photo iPod like a week before the video one came out. He wasn't too happy.

Unless it has extra features, I'm not getting it. A touch screen doesn't sound that great to me.

These are all rumors and I don't see any new ipods coming for at least a little while. The video ipod just came out...

That didn't stop them from releasing the 5G iPods when the iPod nano came out.

They are 2 different types of mp3 players, 2 different markets...

It's still the same standard idea. No one thinks of it as that, they just think "the new iPod."

Yeah they came out with the new photo ipod late summer, and then the video ones a couple months later.

they release like 3 new ipods every year, it's impossible to keep up with apple.

I just got a 60 gig one too, I am going to boycott apple and all these new ipods for a while.

The only thing that gets me to upgrade my iPod is that the accessories and cases and such become obsolete.

If you look at the pods though, they look more fragile with every upgrade. I hate that.

I AM SO DOING THAT SITE! very cool idea! lets hope the screen doesnt get scratched too easily, like the back of the a regular ipod.

ilanbg

09-02-2006 14:48:52

Why would a screen be of the same durability as metal?

It must be replaceable; even PDAs, which don't undergo finger smudges, need their screens replaced.

akalic

09-02-2006 15:23:39

man at least keep the video out a bit longer, i just worked my balls off for a 60gb

09-02-2006 15:25:45

Soon its just going to be a screen. Interesting. This next ipod sounds like a test version for future ipods.

ilanbg

09-02-2006 15:27:04

Every iPod is a test version for future iPods.

akalic

09-02-2006 15:29:59

thats true, but then again we don't ahve much information, thus it sounds more of a test than an actual model

Wolfeman

09-02-2006 15:38:46

If the control is on the screen that is going to suck assssssss...

mrwzk

09-02-2006 15:39:31

they better fix the screen problem my screen got scrathed within minutes of removing it from the box. thye better fix that before they go making it so you have to touch the screen
