I agree. Although, I'm sure this iPod Touch next week will still be a solid upgrade.

I can't help but laugh at this rumor because, it would eventually discontinue the iPhone.

Do you know how many AT&T customers would leave (Pay $275 for the ETF) and go back to T-Mobile or Sprint and get the new iPod Touch 3G? C'mon it's common sense this is fake.

Isn't T-mobile 3G different (1700 uplink) than the one for AT&T & most worldwide companies, thus a 3G anything wouldn't be able to run in that network.... then for Sprint I guess you must be in a 4G area to be able to use the 3G technology... :rolleyes:
 
a lot of people. Remember we are talking about data only comparted to data and voice.

who knows, they may just get rid of the touch and have one device and you can chose to have the voice or not.

but I doubt it.

Seriously? I think most people would just buy a cheap cellphone with it.
 
Look, it comes in colors

Heres just a crappy mockup of a teal one.

Unfortunately Al-a carte may be a bit off for us consumers as for the near future in any of our media/communication life. with the exception of Netflix. But we are getting closer :)


Edit: I know Netflix is not quite Al-a-carte, but pick the lowest unlimited plan and get unlimited streaming
 
Only time will tell. I can see a lot of "Negatives" on the front page already. We shall see. :D

On another note I wonder what the "new" application will be. And I guess I'm the only one who likes iDVD.

Being a troll again.

as for your second post. someone on here mentioned a app creator, but I'm not so sure about that,

Wouldn't there be a home button or rather a "back" button?
I think it would be cool if the nano could be like a watch.

Yeah. It will be on the edges.
 
NO! to the 3g iPod Touch! I want a touch screen device BIG ENOUGH (i.e. possible small nano touch or w/e) not to pay monthly.
 
Yeah I am going to have to say the 3G thing is bogus. It works for an iPad because it's not a phone replacement, but the iPod touch could easily be used for that.
yes but if you use skype do you get a real phone number or can you only talk to other people with skpe?
Because it may be thicker or that you want everyone to have contracts. Money is tight now a days (thanks to the shrub we had for 8 years) Many are looking towards contractless plans.

Plus many already have a phone that they love, or are stuck in a contract already and don't want to pay to get out of it (Its $250 + )

bush didnt ruin the economy. people spending money the didnt have did. the fed printing money that wasnt backed by anything did. the government bailing out banks and car companies with money that we didnt have did. people buying houses they couldnt afford did. banks giving people loans they knew the people coulndnt pay did. one person cannot make or break the economy. its ludicrous to think so. and all of the socialist stuff that the obama admin. is doing isnt going to fix it either. redistribute the wealth? thats called communism and if you think thats a good plan just look at what russia looked like before they went capitalist. the only wealthy people are the government and everyone else is dirt poor.

and why would they go back to the old nano design? does apple ever regress like that?

You enlarged my post, you're being a troll. :p

We will see I'm keeping quiet until that time comes. :-x
An app creator? That would be interesting, if true.

I really hope we can edit more in iMovie - I'm bored with what we have. iMovie HD >>>

Ya that's true. I am having mixed feelings on whether I would like the nano smaller and with a touchscreen or how it was before though. On the one hand, a touch screen one would be a lot smaller but you would always have to look at the screen to change a song etc. Unless they put some sort of controls on the headphones.
 
i guess you live at home with your parents? Other wise you would be paying month to month on other things. (electric, water, etc)

Is that all you can tough talk with? Parents?

I want to be able to afford other things and not have pay monthly on every damn thing that I have.

Now stop trolling by saying everyone is a kid, lives with their parents. You are just getting run over constantly by the number of people going up against your argument and you bring parents and people being kids. Maybe your the child.....

I was and still fit into the "working poor" catagory, but this is about Ipods...
 
At least here, the sound quality using Skype is not nearly as good as the regular phone quality. I remember the US phone quality to be pretty poor so maybe the difference isn´t that big over there.

I think the majority still would by an iPhone, and maybe the kids and tech geeks would use a touch for a phone.

How would you send SMS? 3rd party app? Apple could just stop such an app and you would have to jailbreak. that would stop some of the kids from using a touch as a phone I suppose

Touche..

Agree to disagree then?

I'm thinking the "new" app may not be an app at all, but rather iLife of iOS devices. It will work one and one with the mac iLife and even mobile Me.

this may not ever happen, but I do wonder if Apple will ever create a competitor to Windows Live and offer iLife on Windows?

Then theres always what I said and iLife be digital only. $29 (like Snow Leopard) and you have an option to upgrade to the "pro" verisons of iLife for an additional $20. Pro editions could have more advanced features.

dude I pay a lot of monthly bills and I still like the idea of buying gadgets w/out extra monthly bills for their complete use... why pay extra for something I don't want on it! (model it's a tier hardware structure for apple)

What do we know of Chris: Born 1990 (MR), he has ipod touch 2g & Ipad, WANTS iphone 4, had an ipod touch 1g (GDGT), has no job (twit 23hrs ago)... I feel you times are tough, but chill a bit :) (5sec google search)
