If they reduce the price of the touch and add some physical buttons (or do something to make it possible to use blind) I'm buying one.

4th gen nano confirmed and looks just like the leaked pics so far, classic now 120GB and only available in this capacity. The touch is apparently now thinner, has a volume control, in-built speaker and supports Nike+.
Oh, the event is called 'iPod let's rock' or something **** so it's unlikely there'll be any MacBook/tablet announcements.

They've updated the store with a "One Size Fits All" tag for the new 120GB model even though they still list it as up to 160GB and they have it listed as from £159:00 even though its £179.
New colours for it too but I'm guessing my dream +300GB model isn't going to happen this year.
One word: Capacity.
With 120GB of storage and up to 36 hours music playback,2 iPod classic lets you enjoy up to 30,000 songs or 150 hours of video — or a combination — wherever you go.3
A Genius in the house.
With just a few clicks, the new Genius feature creates a playlist of tracks in your library that go great together.
Enjoy the view.
With Cover Flow, you can browse through your music collection by flipping through album art. Select an album to turn it over and see the track list.
Classic beauty.
Beautiful, durable, and sleek, iPod classic features an anodized aluminum and polished stainless steel enclosure with rounded edges. Choose quintessential silver or striking new black.

Steve seemed less than his usual self. He is poorly in some way surely as the event lacked a certain spark I think. The fact that most was leaked before didn't help either.
And one more thing. Now that Apple have dropped the iconic iPod white (for now) why not match the nano headphones to the unit colour? An inventory nightmare maybe but it would look fabulous. Also I think the Genius playlist in iTunes 8 is genius actually. Nice feature.Last edited by Richard.John; 10-09-2008, 06:20.

Gizmodo have put up detailed new Nano & Touch reviews (with pics) already
Nano
Apple's decision to transition from the fat third-generation iPod nano to the new svelte fourth-generation iPod nano must have been an easy one. The latest version has the same size screen, the same 8 and 16GB storage and the same video support as before, but adds a much more comfortable (sorta) oval shape, a curved…

For all those people who want track skipping and the ability to pause the Touch without looking at the unit, can't you use some iphone headphones? It has a button on the cord for answering calls, but it also skips tracks and pauses music whilst the phone isn't in use. I assume this will also work with the Touch.
Damn handy I find. There are a few alternatives around for those (like me) who hate the standard apple headphones. Shure even make an extension with the button on it.
