1. What are the expected significant differences between
2nd and 3rd generation ipods?
2. When is the 3rd generation likely to be on the market?
3. What are the expected prices for 16 and 32 gbs?
Thanks,
Bardov

New stuff about the 3rd gen (Not definite)
Camera
Supports faster wireless
Fingerprint reader (instead of passcode lock)
64GB version
Also there are 2 new iPods, iPod2,2 and iPod3,1. Apple ordered large touch screens so 3,1 is likely to be like a tablet PC.
No one knows the prices yet.

It's impossible to know the prices unless you work for apple.

Well, the fingerprint reader is probably right, but they might include a camera in the new iPod, since it would get them even more money.

and while they're at it, they'd bump up the price another $100

Some people would still probably buy it...
Others would just wait for the price to go down.
And others would just keep their 1G/2G iPods they have already.

They wont put a camera in an iPod, they want to distinguish between the iPod Touch and iPhone. As for the fingerprint scanner, ridiculously unnecessary and impractical, it wont happen.

Why do people always ask us how the 3rd generation iPod Touch is going to look like, do we look like Apple Employees?

Also, you probably wont see a new iPod in June, maybe in September though judging from previous versions.

Most likely, an iphone will come out before an ipod.

Yup, they always do, and probably always will.

My mate said, the only reason why he did not get a touch is, Not enough space, he Preferably wants 120Gb, But he said he can live with 64 xD.
iTablet. That'd be cool.

We really have no more information here than a cursory google search would reveal.
