Last rumor before possible new iPods tomorrow? We'll see in about 12 hours!
I think it's a pretty sure bet right now. FWIW, now at 8:30 PM the Space Gray touch (all capacities) is only available at about 30% of the stores around me; The Blue is only still available at about 40% of the stores. Less popular colors and capacities are still available at 50%+ of the locations, but the stores have clearly been selling out all their available stock.

Most nano colors are sold out at about 90% of the stores right now!

[Shuffles are still largely available, but that's not surprising. Who'd want to buy a music player with no screen? Sure, it's nice and small - and relatively cheap - but with no screen one has minimal control!]

The only way I'll upgrade my iPad air 2 is if the iPad air 3 has more ramz. I love more ramz.

Maybe so. I just looked on the online store, 1-3 days shipping time for the iPod touch and iPod nano. 1 business day shipping on all the Shuffles except for the silver and space grey colors (those 2 list as in stock). FWIW......
 
Apple should never have brought out the rip-off iPad Mini 3.

Any sane person buys the Mini 2. If Apple reduce the price of the 3 to that of the 2, it is only what they should have done a year ago.
I would wait for ipad mini 5 if they announce, for a much better spec, and refreshed design. iPad mini 3 is definitely a bad idea. Seems that Tim Cook is hard to make good decision on market.

Except that the iPad Mini 3 may come down to the iPad Mini 2's price. So Apple simply stops charging a premium for Touch ID and any other small adjustments made in the 3.

How do you see it as a premium? The mini 3 was released at the same price point as the mini 2 was. If anything you were getting more for the same price - the opposite of a price premium.

I don't. I feel like the glass would be a weak point when holding it. My iPhone 6 occasionally creaks if you pick it up at on corner. I don't think the seam between the metal and glass is strong enough. Not to mention that one drop and you're screwed.

I know you say occasionally, but even so I'd get to the Apple Store if there is one nearby. Mine does not creak at all. Even if I squeeze down on the glass - it just feels like a solid slab. Going off personal experience I wouldn't be surprised if you got a brand new one.
