Sounds like a touch with GPS.

External speakers for the touch would be nice

What a gaming machine it would become with speakers

I bought an iPod touch last week and love it. Quite possibly the best designed & manufactured item I've ever owned.

Amazing how such a small item can do so much. Started using "Handbrake" so I could have some movie content on it with "my" dvd's and like that also.

It's easy to see why other companies are struggling to keep up with the big Apple.

160GB hard drive... PLEEEEEEEEEASE!

iPod Touch will become that so called new Newton or tablet some people desperately want.

Haha... just when DELL comes out with the Zing, they are already way behind on the curve. I hope they call it the Zing.... what a perfect name to match up with the Zune.

A buddy just bought one and was showing me some of the music applications. Drum machine and keyboard apps are stunning.

I'd love to see an iPod touch CAD application. VectorWorks Lite... or even a resurrected MiniCAD?

The touch makes every PDA I've seen or used look like 1970s calculators.

I am *so* anxious for this update. And if I can get a 16GB model for $299, even better. But I don't expect to see this until the "Back to School" promotion has run its course.

No way man, go for the gusto! Add a FireWire port and then we can attach:
