Time for the 5th generation -- "It's the best iPod touch we've ever made." Just 6.1mm thick, 88 grams in weight, looks to offer similar styling as before but slightly more squared back. It's aluminum on the back with a brushed finish -- no more chrome to get scratched up. There's a speaker on the bottom plus the Lightning connector and the headphone jack. And, yes, it's the iPhone 5 display! So, 4-inch display. It's now rocking the A5 processor, so it finally steps up to dual-core processing. Up to 40 hours of music playback in the touch, 8 hours of video. Slightly increased over the 4th gen Touch. And, a new camera too. It's a 5-megapixel iSight camera. Backside illuminated, f/2.4, 5-element lens and that same sapphire crystal lens cover.
Mystery button on the back of the iPod. It's called the iPod touch loop. You can attach a little wrist strap to the back if you like, "for the added security when you're taking pictures or just walking around town." makes this more like a consumer compact camera. That's included with the iPod.
1080p video now with image stabilization and you can use iMovie right on there. Also a 720p camera for the FaceTime HD camera on the front.
Siri will be supported on the iPod touch! Five colors -- raw aluminum, black, blue, yellow and red. "This is our new iPod lineup for the holidays." No pricing announced.
