I am going to go away this summer for 2 months.. I need to buy a camera, and then an ipod.. i dont listen to much music so i want a mini because it is cheaper and smaller, but with this new photo connector coming out, it will save me money as i wont need to buy as large capacity card for my digital camera.. will they have this device for only ipod photos? I dont care to look at the photos, just i want to transfer it to the ipod. Also, do you guys think it will work with all cameras?
Got a tip for us?

They're aren't many details about the connector right now i.e. what cameras will work with it, but from what I have read, I think it only works with the ipod photo. You can get a belkin card reader to hooks up to the existing ipods with dock connector, that will do exactly what you want.

You can buy 3 1GB CF cards for the price of an iPod photo.
Buying it just for that purpose doesn't make sense.
i wouldnt be buying it soley for that purpose. I would be buying it because i need an mp3 player anyways, but i really dont need that much music.. I probably will get a sony cam. which used pro stcik duo, which the card reader for the other ipods does not accept. Thats why i was hoping this adapter would come out for the other ipod lines to so i dont have to spend the extra money for the photo.

Well in that case:
If you are hell bent on getting the sony, I guess your only option is to wait for the camera adpater, but like I said, I think it only works with the photo, and there is no list of compatable cameras yet since the device isn't even out.
