This site gives a good review of what might be expected in the next generation iPod by going over the capabilities of the next generation of the chip used in the current iPod. No guarantee that Apple would implement everything the chip is capable of, but seems reasonable to expect a future iPod that will go beyond a music player. I refer to it as a multimedia iPod rather than a video iPod because I think people keep focusing too much on the ability to play videos in a future iPod whereas I agree with Jobs that this isn't a good fit. What I want is one that will handle digital photos so I can leave my laptop at home when I need to offload lots of photos and for showing slide shows on friends and families TVs when I visit.
