Maybe i should return my ipod touch :D
Why? The one you have now will still be a good Touch. Besides, the new Touch will probably just have a redesign change—nothing new that will be noteworthy.

Good, about D&£$!£$! Time too!
I've been drooling for a Nano for ages.... but if they change the design I'm jumping to go for a current model I think it's perfect in size.
Though I've heard that the Touch will not be different in design, only some moderate upgrades will take place. However the only note worthy thing to mention I think is the fact that NIKE will play a big part in this new update. I know a guy at Nike who says they've been told that the new iPods will be a major hit with runners. So I assume the Nike software will be a little more than just a plug and play thing. It seems that for once we might not need those things in our shoes! The Touch might be able to handle the steps on it's own if worn on your hips, and if this is any indication of any updated for the nano, I'm guessing it's going to be the same for them. Motion sensor in the nano to be more compatible with the Nike merger of the new software.
I can't confirm this, so take it as it is... Though I don't have a reason NOT to believe him cause he didn't seem that hyped about new iPods, but he did mention that the software written for the new Nike app, suggests some minor new modifications to the iPods.
Time will tell and I hope I'll like the new design. I love the current fatty iPods. :)
