iPod touch Price Drop

[Grentz]

How in the world did you manage that? You can't even find an 8GB Touch for that around here. The 16GB versions are at least $300-$320.

Look around online, you can store 16gb models for around $250 - $280 regularly on ebay. $200 is a darn good price though for the 16gb.

Heck, I just scored a brand new 32gb for $120 less than the MSRP on eBay!

What about improved audio and battery life?

I think people may be underestimating how good the iPod Touch is. As time goes by, more & more wireless networks are available meaning the Touch becomes more and more connected - without 'expensive' mobile operators.

Like most posters, I dont see a price drop coming in. Just bumps to storage.

Agreed... once Apple fills out a product line there's rarely any price point changes. The iPhone business model is still maturing... Apple has a better idea on the pricing for the Touch.

What I'm waiting for is the other improvements to the Touch that the iPhone 3G is getting. Sure more space would be nice but 32Gb is fine for now. Having 24 hours of audio listening time would be sweet... as would GPS and improved audio (although I suspect this is call quality focused and may not affect music listening).

why would get a 8GB now? Same with the nano and shuffle. If they have the money might was well go out and spend it well...
