i was really hoping September would've brought a 64GB flash storage version of the Classic at around $250. I woulda bought it in a heartbeat. Radio would seal the deal. I really hope they don't abandon the classic for the iPod touch. I just want a music player! I know they still offer the Classic now, i'm just not in the market yet, and I hope that a few years down the line, when i am in the market, that there will be an option for me that won't include a touch screen, wifi and iOS to drive up the cost.
