Maybe.

Seriously, only Steve Jobs and a few high-ups at Apple would really be able to say. There is space inside the nano to add more memory, so it's possible.

I've heard, in the near future, Samsung's going to start mass-producing the chips necessary to make much cheaper 8 GB flash modules possible.

I would imagine (pure uninformed speculation here) based on that we could see 8/6 GB Nanos at Macworld SF 2006.

Here's to hoping they come sooner than later.

I doubt we'll see them that soon. WWDC '06 maybe, and hopefully within a year.

Very doubtful. Apple doesn't usually update a "new product" in the first 6-8 months.
