I could put off the purchase for another year. Is that long enough? My solution to my filling up iPod Photo was to go ahead and purchase the current 120 Gig iPOd Classic to hold my video Podcasts and TV Shows and Movies. I've kept the Audio Podcasts on the iPod Photo so I still have room on both. I'm waiting for the next generation iPod Touch because I believe there will be either a 64 Gig version or a 128 gig version probably in the fall. I expect a 64 gig iPod Touch at least because Apple has always had a Touch model that is twice the storage of the biggest iPhone which is now 32 gigs. I don't think you will have to wait much longer than September to make your decision. Hope this info helps.

Herb - There's no telling whether there will be an iPod Touch with a significantly larger capacity within the next year. It's possible, but I don't think Apple will add a spinning hard drive, due to size and the power ramifications you spoke of. Solid state storage is still just a bit too expensive to allow them to come out with a really massive Touch. As Clean said, a 64GB Touch is likely, but I wouldn't expect anything much bigger than that anytime soon. People have speculated about some other kind of product, such as a larger "media pad" or something like that, designed for mobile gaming and watching video. That's a possibility, I suppose. Sadly, Steve Jobs still refuses to let me know what his plans are. One thing you can be certain of, though, is that if you wait, you will have different options than you have now. - Allen
