i heard there was. its like same size as the video, but its touchsreen, so when u watch a movie or whatever, it goes the full size of ur ipod, and not just the screen. possibly just a rumor though.
ill try and find something

yeah the video pod rumours have been around for awhile.

i think we're most likely to see increased capacity nano's, possibly with video playback.

they're coming out with a new ipod that had finger print recognition, so if someone else uses it, spikes will come out and ruin their day

i bet after the touch screen will either be that phone or like an ipod with a camera in it. it actually wouldnt be that hard for them to do either. itd prolly be a bit beefier tho

there was recently a semi-admission that apple is working with Softbank/Vodaphone Japan on a co-branded phone. No word on whether its going to be a true iphone, or just another apply branded handset like the ROKR. For now, they are saying it may just be japan-only too.

Haha, the 8 gig is real, trust me. Nano's have two memory slots. Usually the 4 gig ones have 2X2 or 1X4. This thing was made by some guy inside apple, who made a few of them for some developers at Macworld last year. Basically, they're just the normal Nano case (before being stamped w/ product number and size) with two 4 gig sticks inside. I guess I could post pictures, but they look exactly the same (minus the product stamp). I could easily doctor a screenshot of the about page that pops up when you plug it in, so I guess there is no true way to prove that he has one. But he does. It works. And they are not for sale.
