Is it just me, or are iPod rumours not nearly as satisfying as Macintosh rumours? Honestly I don't care what the next iPod is like.

The funny thing is that I bet you guys would get along just fine if you met in a pub.

I don't think so, even if TONS of booze was involved. I have very nice people I would rather hang out with.

Do you want forgiveness or respect?

That's very punny, considering where you're hanging at the moment.

I doubt we'll see gaming iPods. That said I wouldn't be surprised if we see an iPod photo with camera. I wouldn't be surprised if the current iPod moves to be the iPod colour/iPod and the iPod photo moves on to be a high end camera that also plays music and has an internal HD. If I had a 40 gig or even 20 gig iPod that also took photos I'd be doing a lot more photography.
That said... iPod rumours really aren't as cool, because you don't do as much with an iPod as with a Mac. With a Mac it will be faster, better improve your work flow, this.. will not do near as much I don't think.

If you guys want to try another thread involving the topic of chip suppliers for Apple's next generation multi-media device, be my guest. If it's going to be more stupid repetitive bickering, don't bother.
