does anyone know if it can play video because it would be nice to have 60 gb hardrive to auto-capture from a camera to the iPod and be able to view it and listen to it

How come there were no rumors at all in this forums about the new ipod?

What would it need?
Probably only a software update

yeah software update and there is also a new version of iTunes available, although I can't access it through Software Update yet, but I am sure by tonight it will be available.

That is so cool! 60gig, colour screen. I'm sure with 3rd Party software you could use video. Also, I bet there going to release a clip on camera, if its going to be Apple or 3rd Party who knows.

I noticed that apple are claiming a 15hr battery life. I'm assuming the colour screen will take more power so they must be using a better battery so: Why couldn't they stick this battery in the 4G?? That would give it a massive battery life right?

probably because they had a contract with their supplier for a certain amount of time.. that time is up so now they can use a different supplier. Or the technology just wasnt there when they were creating the 4th G and remember they create it long before we see it.. could be a lot of reasons

It can do pictures for 5 hours

The iPod Photo is slightly thicker than the normal 40GB iPod (0.75" to 0.69"). I guess it's battery simply is bigger, that's why it has a higher capacity.

I just looked over the new color iPod. It is incredible, even shows progress bars just like Aqua in OS X. So glad I waited :alien:

Well they are nice, but the pricing is a little out of my league at the moment.

I mean, that's half an iBook...
Although it doesn't fit in my pocket, I still prefer my 'book & my 2nd gen. iPod as my digital hub

Yeah, I'm gonna wait until they put video capabilities in them until I even consider buing a brand new one.
