Now that the features of touch 4 have been revealed, what do you expect from 5th gen? I don't expect much, esp not the level between 3rd and 4th gens. Only thing I expect is 128gb capacity. This probably will end the ipod classic. Your thoughts?
Got a tip for us?

I can't believe someone wants to start a thread on speculation of the 5G model. I am going to savor my 4G model and wait until next June or July before I speculate on a "new" model.

He's talking about the 5g, to be released next year (hopefully)
BTW, I'm quite sure that next year they will knock off the Classic in favor of a 128gb iTouch.

It really depends on what consumers want.
Honestly at this point with the exception of adding some small new features to the actual OS and maybe improved cameras I can't see them doing much more to make this media device any better.

I think next year will be another refresh year as opposed to complete redesign year.
I think the magic will be in iOS 5 instead of the design of the product.
What I would hope for, most importantly is new home screen Widgets. Then an enhanced way for notifications to alert you. I am thinking a new interface that is more revolutionary than evolutionary as it has been since iOS came out on the original iPhone.
The whole OS, has really remained the same since its introduction, obviously things have been added since then. Had they not included wallpaper support in iOS4, it would look much more similar. The core apps, i.e. Safari, Music, Photo, App Store, etc., etc., are practically the same as they have been since they were introduced.

The chances of iOS ever supporting flash are the same as SJ wearing a white turtleneck during a keynote. 😉
Right and the touch 4 will be more than powerful enuff to run iOS5. Only change I see with touch 5 is 128gb size

I'm not buying an Apple product until they fix the battery life on these things. Only 40 hours playback? Come on.
