iPod Nano and iPod Touch Dimensions Revealed?

Hey, now there is an idea. Truely give it everything of the phone without the phone. Then I can get rid of my palm centro and go back to paying only $20/month instead of the $60 I am now.
Samsung Instinct may be in my future, but who knows what will be out in February (that's when I am eligble for an upgrade without being charged exhorborant fees). Has everything the iphone has, but less money and with all my family being on sprint - I can talk to another sprint phone for free.
I would love to get an ipod touch with what you said and a camera (this way I would not have to pay for a data plan with sprint).
I have actually heard a commercial pushing for digital and HD radios has they said radio will stop as well. Could by hype and false advertising - would not be the first time.
I don't use "Mr." at all. I however do use people's full name. Or simply "SJ".
Besides, "Mac" isn't just short for "Macintosh" anymore. It's the official name. It's not called the Macintosh Pro, but Mac Pro, if you guys haven't noticed.
Do you guys also correct people when they ask for a "coke". Do you demand they should say "Coca-Cola" and "Pepsi Cola"?
please let the touch have 80GB or more. if they can fit 80GB into the classic and keep it nice and thin they can do it with the touch too. i'll be so excited if it's atleast 80GB.
Not sure if I'd like a wobbly Nano.. I'll probably get a touch since I have no desire to switch to At&t. I'm looking forward to something new from Apple I can use or play with. Phones and TV/Apple TiVo aren't that high on my buy list.
You guys are sooo behind the curve

Is it bill who introduced the "Ultra Mobile Personal Computer" thing?
In addition to the new nano and touch, I hope to see this thing, but with the Apple and Steve Touch...
or even the iPlay/iGame stuff such:

That's sweet, but I need that and the capability of it holding 200 songs on top of that. I get clogged up with documents.
Thanks for that. Brilliant.
Having taken a look at these images, and having a bit of a background in drafting, I'm inclined to call fake. In all probability, a high school student in an intro to drafting class came up with these and then proceeded to parade them around as leaks.
The dimensions are arbitrarily scattered with very little useful information. If you're only going to give the outermost dimensions of the device as a high-level summary, why include the radius of the corner of the screen on the iPod touch? If you're going to give the radius of the corner of the screen, why not give the radii of the corners that are actually useful to case manufacturers, like, say, the corners of the device itself? Why give a dimension starting from the center of the iPod touch's screen to the center of the home button, rather than starting from the top or bottom of the device? For that matter, there's no actual center line drawn across the middle of the iPod touch's screen, so while the dimension appears to start at the middle, you can't actually know, ergo the dimension is totally useless. Why give (what I can only assume is) a cross section of the iPod nano? Why mark the thickness of the iPod nano on the cross section rather than the normal side view? Why have the right edge of the thickness dimension go all the way down to the bottom of the screen? Why are volume buttons represented on the iPod touch image, but the hold switch is not represented on the iPod nano?
I could easily go on, but the point is that these images are of very little information to anyone who would have a use for them. Essential dimensions are omitted, and nonsense dimensions are included. The overall construction is also simply shoddy. I've seen actual Apple dimensions for their iPods (I think anyone can, just go to developer.apple.com and click "Designing cases for iPod and iPhone" at the bottom of the first page. I don't think you even have to sign in,) and they are done far, far more professionally. These images are useful neither to case manufacturers nor the manufacturers of the devices themselves. So again I suggest that the images are fake.
Edit: actually, upon further reflection, seeing as the school year just began, the person I suspect made these is probably actually just starting a second year drafting course and got bored while the teacher was explaining the disclosure.

Yeah, sorry. When I hear external, I think of separate speakers hooking up through the headphone jack. As far as scratches go, I'd much rather have scratches on a durable metal back than cracks on a plastic back.
Obviously, I'm complaining based on my own opinions and expectations.
Point taken. Although I liked the fat ones. I just don't like the bulged curved look of the touch on that blueprint. Maybe when I see it, I'll think differently, or when I find out what they needed to make room for.
I don't know what planet you are from but my iPod is (currently) holding 1288 songs, 10 podcasts, 4 TV shows, 3 feature length movies, and a bunch of notes, applications, etc.
Oh, also a few thousand contacts and all my email.
