    Hi Folks,
    I have had my iPod Touch 3rd generation 32 gig since they where first released. I am itching for a new one, but don't want to buy a 4th generation, if a 5 is coming out this year. I have heard nothing about a new Touch. Is there any rumors of a new Touch this year?

    Thanks all,

    Bill

    Yeah they're expected to be updated around the September time. The iPods are usually updated every year by the way.

    Apple will probably kill the iPod touch in the next year or two.

    Something interesting to note:
    iOS 1
    1.0: first iPhone
    1.1: first iPod touch

    iOS 2
    2.0: second iPhone
    2.1: second iPod touch

    iOS 3
    3.0: third iPhone
    3.1: third iPod touch
    3.2: first iPad

    iOS 4
    4.0: forth iPhone
    4.1: forth iPod touch
    4.3: second iPad

    iOS 5
    5.0: fifth iPhone
    5.1: third iPad

    There was always, up until now, a pattern of the iPod touch releasing every iOS x.1 update, but for iOS 5.1 there was instead a new iPad. In my mind, the iPod touch line has been terminated.

    So no iPod touch with A5 processor and increase RAM?

    I think we'll see one this year. Taking into account what ValleyForge so kindly pointed out.

    Im guessing no. To me it seems like their putting their minds towards the iPad and the iPhone rather than the iPod Touch.

    But what I pointed out indicates that there will not be another iPod touch...

    I know. Even taking that into account, I think there will be another. They may not update them as often, but I don't think they're discontinuing them just yet.
