as much as i'd like to see an iPod video, Jobs said that they haven't made one yet because people don't have the content to put on it, legally. Until we hear news about negotiations with MPAA for the iTVS then i don't think we'll see anything like the PSP for a little while. too bad though

Perhaps video podcasting will catch on. Apple may come out with the video iPod before having a content deal. Don't know what the leap would be technologically to have video play on an iPod, but I could use some entertainment for 30 mins on the train each morning.
i was looking at the times apple update the ipod and the updates all were from april to july. THe updaes from 2nd to 3rd took a year and one month,and 3rd to 4th took a year and 2 months. If apple keeps up the year and plus one mounth each update, then we get ipods in september.If the keep the updates with in months of each other we get ipods in may or june. Im hoping may but june would be nice too.
They could have said it was just speculstion even when they had info saying so. They could do that because if they said the had inside info then apple could sue.

MacPredict.com's users are predicting 2nd July. So about 6 months since from the previous update, which sounds about right. The question is whether the update is a storage bump like on the mini last time, or something more like the photo screen appearing on more models.greenguy4 said:
upgrading from 2nd gen
yeah, I hope they update the minis (unlikely, since they've done that round Feb time) or iPod 5th gens. I'm wanting one this summer to replace my 2nd generation iPod. It's given me 3 years of faithful service, and it's time for retirement.

Well you could go and make your own rumor if you like. (currently predicting new iPods on the 11th of September)swissmann said:

Just caught this
Hi Gang,
Didn't feel like reading through all the posts, so I'm not sure if this has been caught by anybody yet.
Everytime I go to http://www.griffintechonlogy.com it seems there releasing some new add-on either for the mac or generally for the iPod. and sure enough today:
they have the "BlueTrip"
Which is bluetooth for your iPod in the home, I guess you put some type of device in the headphone port in the iPod. and then the reciever is connected to your stereo. - If this is in the works, then i'm sure something is underway for headphone type stuff.

Well, and? I'm still happy with my 5 gb rev. A! ipod. That's right, I had one before everyone had one. I don't need more than 1000 songs in my pocket and 6 hours + of battery life when I'm travelling by subway, train or car...
Wireless head phones are the main thing I want - cords constantly get tangled when putting them away. I hope if they go that way they also bring out an attachement to make current 4G ipods similiarly compatable with new headsets.

Musiclover is quite right. Without the mechanism to ge the content legally then there is little point in selling a video iPod.
With iTunes now allowing small video downloads with songs, it seems likely that we'll see a iTunes Movie Store or something along those lines before too long. A video iPod with a movie store is just what Apple will need in the coming months to reinvigorate the iPod line and put it way ahead of the competition again.
Not sure what they'l do about the iTunes branding if it sells movies as well. The iTunes name is to iconic to lose and it would make commercial sense if one app had both stores.
I just hope Apple will improve battery time without the iPod becoming a brick. My 40Gb 4G iPod is fat enough. Besides when I do buy a new iPod, I sure would like to be able to use it with my inmotion. As it is now I couldn't fit the 60Gb into the slot...

not true. I would love to be able to carry some short home videos of my baby girl on my iPod.

bluetooth can sync anything, including songs. All bluetooth is is a wireless protical for transfering data short distences, and it could be anything. I know that bluetooth is used at some airports to sinc the gas trucks to a pump controll straped around the POL issuers waist to controll the fuel flow in and out of the aircraft. If bluetooth can do that, then it can transfer any type of data, including songs and all the other stuff.

Yes, bluetooth can sync anything, technically, but it was designed for Personal Area Networks... it wasn't meant to be used to download large files or stream multimedia! Look up the speed of Bluetooth 1.x and you'll see that it is not meant for this type of thing. Even bluetooth 2.0 is not quite fast enough to make it practical to sync a large volume of data!
