Holy crap!!!

This is great!

32GB in Flash !!!! (Makes me want to get a touch as well as my iphone - just kidding but wow - kinda of a big surprise with that one :) ! )
 
Great, now my son's christmas present is perceived as outdated! Still good news, now I can get me a 32G iPod....
 
Great stuff! Will tide us all over until those fancy new processors intel just unveilled work their way through! 32GB- sweet.
 
glad they upped the memory, but as a current iphone owner, i'll be waiting for iphone 2. wish i had the 16g, especially with apps on the horizon.
 
I have been waiting to replace my 30GB iPod until there was a 32GB Touch. Sweet!
 
of course... the rumors were true.... and immediately... looks like apple shaping up again after the air incident... but why not 32gb phones?

Just as I thought. This was just the minor upgrade that was supposed to be announced at macworld to hold us over until iphone 2.0 is introduced. That phone is not coming out until later in the year. A lot of stuff in fact didn't get debuted at macworld like they were supposed to.
So you have a choice now. Buy the upgraded capacity version of the iphone 1.0 or touch now or wait til later in year for version 2 of the iphone.
 
Nice! Just what I was waiting for. Perfect timing too- I was planning on buying an iPhone on Feb 15th regardless of an update or not. The one thing I was hoping for was a larger capacity iPhone. Right on!:D
 
I got a 16G Touch for Christmas a couple of months ago. I'm happy with it. I probably would not have gotten a 32 Gig one even if they had been out simply because of the price being a little higher than I like to spend on something like that.
