wat***** macrumors, how's somebody's EXPECTATION becomes a news?
Apple has lost the plot.
I'm extremely fed up with my iPT4. If the iPT5 doesn't have a GOOD camera and at least 1GB of RAM, I'll probably not buy it.
And by good camera, I mean at least what the iPhone 4 had. I don't even want it for use as a dedicated camera (I've got my D7000 for that), just for the occasional on-the-go pictures. The <1MP current camera is horrible for pictures.
I'm already not sure if I'd even buy the new one because of the new dock connector. I already have multiple rather expensive accessories based on the old connector, if there's no adapter from new to old then I'll have to reconsider getting a new iPod, because I really don't want to ditch my accessories.
MacRumors folks seem to put their trust and faith inwhen it comes to RAM. I've read through 2 threads here that were a total of 12 pages long and 4 posts on RAM were found, 2 being mine. RAM is hugely, HUGELY important in any computer. The iPod Touch falls into this category(computer). The iPod Touch 4, even though I really like it, was crippled with not enough RAM(256MB).
I would absolutely go berzerk(not really) if they didn't upgrade from 256 to 512 but you're right the RAM should be 1GB.
Anyway, as much as I bitched and moaned about my iPT4. It was really cool to have that device in my pocket. It really sucked to only view one or two web pages at a time without having to reload them whenever I go back to reference them. And as you know, the Touch doesn't have an i7 CPU so loading a webpage isn't instantaneous, ie it takes 30 seconds to a minute. This every time I want to look at another webpage that I have previously loaded. This should take 1/2 second but it takes up to a minute. The answer to this riddle is RAM. Too Little RAM.
Tired of typing.
Enjoy your new iPods.
Thanks.
As an Android phone owner I'd be interested in this so I could enjoy the best both have to offer.

The CPU has little to do with load times, that's almost completely dictated by your internet speed with devices such as the iPod Touch. It may be wimpy in the RAM department, but pages load quickly for me (until Safari crashes, but that's a different issue).

Nope-put an iPod touch...or heck, an iPad 2 on the same network right next to a PC. The iOS device will be bajillions of times slower, not even counting the interface slowness/lack of real multitasking, etc. The problem is the crazy slow hardware. I mean the iPod touch 4 is basically running a Pentium 1.
