I don't know weather to pick up an Ipod Touch because im afraid there will be a new 1 coming out soon. The reason being is last August i unknowingly bought an ipod nano then come september a NEW 1 came out and i felt stupid..so should i buy an Ipod Touch or just wait for a NEW verison
 
Seeing as an iPhone just came out and holds no major updates except for 3g obviously (for example Generation ipod Video 5.0 to 5.5 held little to make buying the iPod 5.0 stupider than waiting for 5.5) Unless you're worried about your iPod Touch a different backside (the most likely possibilty) I don't see why you don't just go ahead and buy that one right now.
 
If it happened last time, just go ahead and wait. It will be hard, but you'll have the maximum amount of time to have the latest and greatest. Even if it's a very small update (like a tiny, tiny, tiny video screen), it still breaks you down a little bit. I'm in the same boat.
 
Buy used. I found a 16 GB Touch on Craiglist today for $170. You may find one for around $200. If a new one comes out September it won't kill me. Unless it comes with 3G.
 
well I'm sure if it was coming out with 3G then it would be tied to a network and why not make an iPod Touch with capability of calls if it has 3G? - a.k.a iPhone 3G. Dont hold your breath on 3G for the iPod Touch
 
I've noticed that some electrical stores here in the UK, i.e. Currys and Comet are starting to slightly discount the iPod Touch by £5 - £10 and state that they're end of line so it might not be too long a wait for a new one.
