Just thinking on we are due a press release on the UK iphone in time for Christmas and they have summoned UK journos to BBC London to watch the event live (which should be 5pm UK time). If it is from the BBC offices perhaps it will have some coverage on news 24.

I be very surprised if they updated computers at this event though, it a iPod event.

I would have held off ordering till next month as the latest version of OS X will be released next month.

I was going to order the new iMac but decided to hold off for the updated OS.

They will almost certainly allow you to get an upgrade CD for the cost of p&p, provided you can produce a receipt and one of the Apple software coupons you will find inside the box.

IF this is the case and, please let it be so, IF it has digital radio, its a god damn certainty.

US digital radio is not the same as digital DAB radio in the rest of the world (bit like 3G) so don't expect the radio to work in the UK/europe.

I already got an xda mini2s and I had an xda 2 before that. Neither have truly floated my boat. This xda mini is pretty buggy and seems to eat flash cards.

The new iPod classic looks good. Same as usual just with the slightly better interface, lighter, smaller, and better battery life.

I really like the look of the iPod Touch, even though the storage capacity isn't as big as I had hoped. Its really just the iphone with some bits taken out though.

That's to do with the limitations of Flash memory.

The touch looks nice one the surface, but then its still laden down with all the usual Apple restrictions, which is a shame.

When its cracked open a bit, allows divx, mp3 , allows homebrew and divorced from itunes, then i'll jump for it. Until then i'll just ogle Archos enviably.
