    Oh man that's quite expensive! You could try to sell your touch on eBay, or at least check out how much they are going for.

    eBay tip: Start the bidding low.

    Yeah I don't think you will get $200 for it, since the 2G 8gb are $200.

    I would sell mine since I don't really have a use for it. I already have my good 'ol 5g iPod for music. You can use that to buy an extra hdd for backup or something : )

    I would say no more than $150.00 for the older Touch.

    I don't think it will. Apple won't wait that long.

    I don't believe it'll be at Macworld, I think its safe to say October at the moment. If not October, than yeah, January, but I think they've delayed it quite a bit already and having it at January, six months after Montevina and just a few months away from Nehalem would be an awkward time to introduce new Macs.

    Agreed. I could see it happening next month. Macbook Pros are already past due.
