    I know there has been lots of questions on the release of the iPod 4G. But I have heard that it is terrible. I have also the designer has already resigned and he will most likely get sued. Anyone know how good it really is?

    Well, no one can really know except.. Steve Jobs and whoever is working on it. But I can safely say that it'll be somewhat the same as the iPhone 4. It'll have the Retina Display and Gyroscope for sure.

    Apple claims to sell up to 10million FaceTime enabled devices at the end of the year, and they've sold 3-4million so far, so I think the iPod Touch 4G will have FaceTime. And, because of FaceTime, The iPod Touch will need a front facing camera (possibly a back facing camera, as well).

    Yep, there is a rumor floating around that Apple is making a 7-inch iPad.

    I also heard the antenna will be on the middle of the back of the iPod, meaning it blocks out signals. True?

    As if the iPad couldn't be anymore unnecessary, let's make another one 2 inches smaller?

    I played with one of those yesterday while getting my iPhone 4 replaced (which by the way allowed me order another free case :) ) as I have the phone (which I upgrade yearly) I think I'll wait till iPad's Second Gen before I start considering purchasing one.

    Fun device though...but would need a gyro.

    Have a think and use you're common sense before posting please. Firstly, No electronics sites have got their hands on it yet, if they had would be pictures and news. Secoundly, if the Ipod 4th gen was obviosly terrible apple would not release a sub standard product. Finally, The fact that the you heard the designer may be getting sued should aleart you to the fact that this is false information. You cannot sue an employee just because he/she came up with a design you are not happy with.

    Instead of making users buy silly lightsaber, gun, and fart apps, Apple decided to save their fans money and just create a laser feature. :D

    WTF???

    LMAO!!!

    My sister's friend's aunt's nephew's brother on his father's side is the CEO of apple & he days "it's great"

    Here's a question:
    If you are provided with such intel then why ask us as if we know "how good it is"?

    Even though your source has "a high position at Apple" as you say?

    Topic jack:
    Anyone got a cure for this cold I've had for a week now?

    It started out with normal cold symtoms but now has manifested into dry non productive coughing spells throughout the day & there is a constant tickle in the back of my throat preventing me from falling asleep at night.

    I think it's tuberculosis but my girl says it's unlikely...however it's more common than one would expect.

    http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/21/apple-attempts-to-patent-kill-switch-that-roots-out-unauthorized/

    so if this patent goes through apple could kill jailbreaking.

    interesting if this happens.. i wonder if sales would go down? guess we know how jobs felt about all his toys being messed with.

    i am def gonna jailbreak when the next one comes out so i can say i did it. i wish i did not have to update toe 4.2 but it did fix the damn bugs i had in 4.0

    besides i want to try the mame and play some of my roms.

    chris.
