I'm not new at all. An unreleased iPod is still new hardware even if it belongs to the digital hub.
Then you should know how this forums works. I'm not debating on whether the 4G iPod is new hardware..it is. Nontheless it belongs in Digital Hub. Newbies beware!!
I'm joking actually. Man sorry about your leg. What was it a spiral fracture?
I wish I could be looking forwared to the iPods but I have to get a Mac first. Though an announcement to commorate the first 100+ Million songs would be nice.

I don't know much medical jargon but basically my leg broke in two pieces and I have this titanium rod inside now so it gets back together. Probably a 4 to 6 months recovery period. This means I have a lot of spare time to visit forums and watch tv and read.
Which mac do you plan on getting?
I'm really hoping Apple has a new iPod out the door by the holiday season. I'll literally RUN out to get it once I can walk again.
I'm looking at the iMac reeeeely hard. I'm crossing my fingers for a nice system come Sept.
This fall in school I'll start learning Java and by the time Tiger comes out I'll halfway understand Xcode
As for the iPod that's going to be a tougher choice. I LOVE the small size of the mini and it doesn't bother me that it's 4GB because I tend to only listen to songs that I've rated 4 stars and above which would fit in the 4GB just fine. The 4G will have to be nice for me to give up the small size of the mini.
I'm so jazzed about Tiger, iTunes and iPods. I'm bored sitting here on this crappy PC. There's just no excitement like what Apple offers.

Watch out for MRI machines in the future, as it sounds like your rod will be permanent. It can get ripped right out of your leg in one of those. Just make sure you tell the attending that you have a metal rod in your leg if you ever get an MRI in the future.

Ugh, I HATE MRIs! Way too tight in there! And having to sit still all that time.
iPod wise, I hope they don't release anything like that RCA Lyra. Keep it about the music. IIRC that was also the mentality of Jobs.
That sounds scary, the MRI machines. Thanks for the warning. Hopefully my titanium rod will be removed in 1.5 or 2 years. That's what the doctor said, so I hope it doesn't have to be there forever.
Meanwhile I'll make noise at airport security points and I'm not sure if I'm allowed to use the microwave oven. \

Your microwave's fine, that grid in the door shields it.
As for the Lyra, I think Appple needs to keep focusing on on making the iPod smaller (even if it is incremental, like the 2G to 3G shift). A color screen would be awesome for iTunes visualizer and video playback but it's only worth it if it can be sandwiched into the current form factor.
Yeah! Those MRI thingies are scary. They even ask you if you ever had any metal fragments in your eyes. Can't even begin to think what that would do to you inside there! And don't even think of taking your iPod near one of those things
I would rather the new ipods remained the same size but had more battery life - that's all i need - who needs a color screen and phone options tyhat's rubbish
Off topic, but on the current thread subject.... Titanium rods, clips, whatever are indeed MRI compatible. Only issue is that Titanium creates fuzzy imaging around its immediate area on MRIs, but much less than other metal implants. And, btw, sorry about your leg problem.
Back on topic, I agree that Apple could very well update the iPod next week, since they will have lots of media attention after reaching 100'000,000 downloads.

You're new so we'll forgive you for this slip but Digital Hub is for Digital Hub devices whether they be current or new.
