Seeing is believing and we're seeing price drops across each and every iPod touch on Apple's on-line store front. The 8GB model is now $189 (was $229), the 16GB model is $249 (was $299), and the 32GB model is just $279 (was $399). Now what could Apple be making room for?
Update: And now the nano and classic have fallen under the axe. The classic has been cut to $229 (was $249) while the nano now starts at $129 (was $149) for the 8GB model or just $149 (down from $199) for the 16GB nano.
Yes, I agree that's a sure sign that Apple is about to announce something new. Did you see that they took down the online store, they're "busy updating the store for you and will be back shortly." There may be technical problems with the new iTouch, and it could be released later. Check out the rumors at http://www.macrumors.com/2009/.....-revealed/ and http://www.appleinsider.com/ar.....mbers.html
the Touch has been widely expected to jump to 64GB. The player has been the focus of rumors saying it may gain a GPS receiver, and that iPods in general will adopt cameras. An absence from the list to be released today may support stories of camera difficulties, which could force Apple to delay the shipment of new Touches until later in the month, or further. Then we'll see more deals on the previous models.
