So a few days back Apple announced a redesign of the ipod touch, the nano and the shuffle (pretty much going back a generation). They also released itunes 10, apart from the a few visual changes it's relatively the same. I don't really understand the lack of colour, it just makes the program look dull. Also the new layout option of having album art along the side looks hideous. It's as if they want to turn itunes into Windows media player which is definitely not a good way to go. As for ping, i know it's in its early stages and much will change (hopefully) but at the moment it looks absolutely pointless, you can't even listen to full song even though the service is exclusively about music!  
 
But anyway, Im super exited for the new iPod Touch range. It's pretty much an iphone 4 that is only lacking in the ability to make calls, yet its half the price. It'll certainly be on my christmas list, if not in my hands before then.  
 
So what are your thoughts?

 
iTunes 10, great update IMO, cleaner feel.
ping, i dont think that much of, some people may like it but glad to see its ignorable.  

iPod touch is kinda wow, if i can afford it later on i would like to have it but my original one works fine still. 
  
other ipods look fine, but not my thing.

Not a big fan of iTunes 10 right now, perhaps it's just something that I need to get used to. It still works (somewhat), which is good. As for the new iPod Touch, I'm seriously considering buying one, not for music purposes though. I still find my Zune HD to be a fantastic music player, but it's pretty awful in the apps department. I've went almost a year without complaining about apps too much, but I'm kind of itching for some. That and FaceTime on the new iPod Touch is pretty nice.

It was good of them to fix the ipod shuffle but the nano is a shadow of its past, no video, smaller screen and a clip, now its just a shuffle with a screen

I was going to get the new Touch but the sub mega pixel camera is really bumming me out at the moment. I hope Tested do an article comparing it to the iPhone's camera so I can see what its like. I also prefer the look of the old Nano.

I bought a new iPod Touch 4 (32gb).  I was really hoping it would take styling tips from the iPhone 4, so I was disappointed.  Also, it's way too thin.  Making things thinner and smaller doesn't make them better.  To be honest, I needed a new iPod so I bought one.  I'll see what I really think when I get it.    

iTunes 10 is brilliant and Ping is just another social networking option that I'm sure will kick of soon enough. Thing that excites me for Ping is small bands might get more coverage with people liking albums and spreading the word easily.
 
New iPod Touch range is a awesome piece of technology and I think the new Nano is so bloody cool. Would love to try one since I think the screen looks awkward but people reviewing it say it's great.

Those things still made by Apple? Yeah, no thanks then.

I like how with the new Itunes whenever I delete a podcast off my ipod it doesn't freeze up for ten seconds anymore.

Cameras, photos, and video

• Video recording, HD (720p) up to 30 frames per second with audio; still photos (960 x 720) with back camera      

The new iTunes logo is super ugly.

" @Djeffers03: Are you sure? The guys in the comments over at tested say not. Anyway I'll wait on till there is some good comparison shots before buying.

Dont even know what this "ping" is, but the new iPod Nano looks sweet. If I didn't have an iPhone I'd buy one. I don't care about iTunes.

I think the ipod nano is going to be pretty popular

iTunes 10 a piece of shit and buggy as hell. 
 
For some reason it opening my music in a broken visualizer when I just try to play it. 
 
I couldn't care less about Ping.

I tried Ping and thought that was a big waste of time. Nobody I care about is on it. None of my friends or artists.

I think ping is new, and others will join pretty quickly
