    Xirurg, sorry none yet. Just stumbled upon a few photos online.

    Kag, I sure hope not.

    I'm sure we'll all find out during the next hour. :)

    Yeap. Just the ugly nano, stay of execution on the classic, and the mediocre upgrade to the touch.

    Quite disappointing, if you ask me.

    My opinion is Apple dropped the ball on the Touch and it may be picked up by the Zune.

    Maybe I need to see it in person, but from the pictures, it looks like its the Zune's brother.

    Im not sure but is thinner better or is it just a fashion statement, I would have like to have seen more built in features in the Touch, could it be, if you want more features Apple says get an iPhone, I myself and some other people I know bought a Touch because we didnt want to get hung up on long term contracts and all the other hidden costs of operating a iPhone although we all love the added features, but the baggage of owning a iPhone in Canada is retarded.

    Well, it turned out it wasn't any "Mac Touch", and there's several other threads going around so I'll close this one, thanks! :)
