View Full Version : New iPod or wait for Touchscreen
I really want one of the new video iPods; however, I wanted to know if you all think it is dumb to buy one now when they could release a touchscreen iPod soon? Can I connect this current iPod to my LCD TV to watch my TV shows and such? What other features could the "true" video iPod have that could be useful if I am not going to watch a ton of movies? Just occasional TV show on a plane or something.

You can, right now, connect the iPod video to a TV, even the one I'm holding in my hands.
Who knows what else the next big update will bring, though.
There won't be a touchscreen iPod, it's just not practical. Same with the full-screen HDTV video iPod. People make laundry lists of features (FM tuner! Combined XM/Sirius satellite receiver! 100TB storage! Lasers!), but that doesn't mean that those make any sense for the product.
Just get the iPod now, and stop worrying about possible future updates.

I don't see an update happening for at least a few months, if not an entire year.
Ok then. As soon as the education discounts start working I will order one!

...I don't want to be the one to tell you this, but I don't think student discounts on iPods are coming back.
Yeah I know! I think they are Lost and Gone Forever! Oh well. 349 isn't too bad. Or I could just wait till Christmas...
