Battery Life

Doesn't it seem like the battery life on one of these puppies would be pretty lousy?

Still thinking its a fake, but hopefully not!

So how would you use something like this, i mean to change the volume or scroll you slide your finger on the click wheel, and to press the next button or whatever you push it down as a button. The touchscreen isnt going to know (at least not reliably) when your are resting your finger or if you are pressing down to change the track.

It will if Apple makes it.
 
Apple needs to come out with one of these now that they have all these fake pics floating around on the Internet
 
Please God, Let this be real!

I would so love this to be real... my last iPod was a 3G 40GB and I ended up giving it to my father with a ton of music and an inMotion by Altec Lansing.

Then my friend recently got a 5G 30GB and thinks he is the total s***. I would so love to trump his A.

I dont know if this has been mentioned, but on the back of the iPod AV notice how the 40GB is much whited than the ipod AV. That picture looks photoshopped to me. Hopefully the others are real.

Yes, I'm sure the hoaxer started with a picture of a real iPod, probably a 5G, and modified it by adding a "screen." Anyone could do it. Please, all, don't be so gullible.

These are fakes, just look at the thickness, that space needs to include a hard drive and the touch screen and a battery... it seems fishy... but hey, PLZ proove me wrong 😛
 
sorry if someones has pointed this out already, but i am too tired to trawl the posts...

The images of the "iPod AV" are fake, without a doubt. look at the image of the back of the ipod... the faker has had to move the iPod text under the apple logo to fit the "AV" bit in and they have cloned out the original logo and replaced it with a new one (wrong thickness of typeface too) and added some noise, they have even removed the apple logo itself so to easily make it all look the same colour. Further more compare the colour of this with the text at the bottom of the Ipod - this is engraved using the same process as the main logo historically however here there is an obvious colour difference.

amateur.
 
My guess: iPod AV a fake

Don't know if anyone has commented on this yet, but, the length of the eminem song playing in image 3 is 3:25, not the 4:25 implied by the image. (2:16+2:09=4:25, look up the song on itunes )

Also, the length of the completed/remaining bars is inappropriate.

I don't see why someone would need to fake that part of the image though...
 
The easiest way to tell its a fake, Jobs would never plaster AV like that on the back of the iPod. It is not ascetically becoming. They never have plastered Photo or Video on the back, why start with AV? That's just stupid 😎

This ipod would no longer need the space for the mechanical parts of the scroll wheel. This would free up a nice chunk of space for more hd space or battery space.

but int the picture the little time bar is at 17 minutes while none of the trailers are 17 minutes long, i thought it could possibley be at 17 seconds but at 17 seconds in all of the trailers the little guy is not underwater. I wonder if someone could find a leaked copy of that movie.

if you compare the imgae where the iPod AV is on the iPod HI-Fi with the nano and the controls are being shown there is no bar on the top but in the video there is a bar when the controls are being touched

I must say this all seems a bit narrowminded. Whoever has access to this new iPod will most definately have access to Apples/iTunes stock of coming attractions clips. This could be a test clip edited for playback on the iPod. They could make the clip however long they wanted. There could be 16 seconds, 16 minutes, or 16 hours of other crap not related to Ice Age before this frame for all we know.

Dont think the video playing on the screen has any significance real or fake.😕
 
I would love these things to be real as much as the next person. But lets face it, these are fake. Very good photoshop work I'll give 'em that, but these have fake written all over them.

Just dont wanna get my hopes up... I almost jumped off a cliff 2 weeks ago when all we got was that "boombox" and the intel mac mini. With Integrated Graphics 😡
 
Sorry if I repeat something already written. But couldn't the new video enhanced "iPod", be Apple's answer to the Origami project? I don't, in this case, meen the 5G iPod form factor, but really a full sized mini PC/MacPod...
With the transition to Intel, due largely to the power consumption of the G5 processor, and Apple's own statement about Intel's future roadmap of mobile processors more suitable to Apple's own, that they would really go for a Tablet Mac, or mini MacPod?
This would be heaven!
 
And I must say, sadly, that all these photos of the presumably next generation iPods to be fake. Although the final product most likely will look very similar.

Its actually the other way around. The Origami is Microsoft's answer to the new iPod. The Origami wont be out for months from what I hear. But this new Pod is being expect in the next few weeks.

Microsoft is feeling the water using Apples "And one more thing" approach by keeping the Origami in a shroud of mystery. Unfortunately they are having a hard time keeping the secret.
 
I declare the Ice Age 2 Pod real! Ha!

If it is not it's the best photoshop I have ever seen. My reasoning is the reflections. If you look closely there is a reflection that all the items in the photo share. It cuts across the two items diagonally. I circled them in this image (you will have to go back and find the full version to see what I am talking about but it is there.

I could be a fool but this looks so very legit.

The only part that bugs me is the Ice Age 2 "17 minute" thing.
