Aside from the rumours of an October 7th (approx) release, a couple of other things I've noticed today... The Regent Street Apple Store has apparently to local authorities for an extra-ordinary one-off entertainment license for the night of Tuesday October 18th between 8 to 10.30pm.
Don't know if that's of ANY significance but also, Micro Anvika in the UK have an offer on iPods. The last time they did the same offer was either just before the ipod photo was released or just before it was revamped (less accessories included/lower price).
I really think we'll be seeing something before the end of the month.

I can almost guarantee you it will happen this month, ( I say almost because this is apple remember). I am more concerned with what they are going to do with their PowerBooks this month, as I am sure those will come too.

Please excuse my ignorance. I'm not very Apple educated.
Lets say Jobs anounces on October 7th that "Hey we got a new super cool iPod" how long before they would be available? Would it be magiclly that day that all the retailers have them behind the counter ready to sell, or is it like Apple has them all made, boxed and ready to ship or....something else?
I know every situation is different but aproximitly how is it done?

Well with the nano it was available within a day or two in Apple Stores. Available to order online immediately.
I think that's the general rule of thumb with maybe some exceptions.

Indeed....the nano's the only big X-Mas push..no new iPods whatsoever coming out this year...
EDIT: Well, Appleinsider...hm...nah i still think the only big this year is Nano...no new iPods whatsoever....

Well, podfuture seems to think there will be some big changes announced in the first half of this month, and we all know how accurate his last prediction proved. Personally I don't think there will be that long a wait for the 5th gen, it has been too long already.
Well everything of late had pointed to the iPod AV's release and it is also about time they brought out the 5G iPods, so it is all possible.
The date is still unclear, most say 7th, a few say the 11th, but if podfuture predicts it, I will buy it. They predicted about 99% of everything correctly for the nano, including the name, and you should see what they are posting now. iPod with 802.11g?? That would be the most likely thing wrong in the specs, but never say never.
