Could the 5G iPod have a Color screen and Bluetooth????

If there will be any upgrades to the new iPod besides minor OS and maybe a little physical attributes in the 5G it will be those two aspects.
Personally I'd love a WiFi access to the iTunes music store on the go, that would be well used

the photo will eventually become the ipod so i think its safe to say the 5G will most likely get a color screen. If not, the 6G for sure. As for bluetooth, i'd like that because you could use bluetooth headphones, which would be awesome! i know you can do that already, but it would be nicer if the ipod itself had the bluetooth. i would like to use itunes on the ipod but it would be difficult. thats getting into a more PDA ipod, ya know?

Apple is actually developing a mobile iTMS, so it would be on-the-go friendly.

I agree with LazyiPodder. I think putting Bluetooth onto an iPod will be more used for things such as headphones. Using Bluetooth to access your computer then access iTMS then selecting a song then downloading it onto your iPod would be incredibly S-L-O-W! The only other good functionality might be once you have your collection synced and you download another song that you could sync that one extra song via Bluetooth. There is no way that I would sync an entire collection of music over current Bluetooth standards. Of ocurse all of this could become faster and easier in the future.
I guess that not long from now Apple will introduce some kind of PDA that syncs specifically with Macs and will have integrated WiFi that will be able to access your home wireless connection and download songs from the iTMS directly.

i love my photo, but if the 5G iPod came with Bluetooth, I can't say i wouldn't be tempted to save up a good chunk of change to buy one. :p
