To release a product like this and not have 3rd party app support? I predict that Apple will have development tools and a API with leopard. This makes me believe it even more. It doesn’t make sense.

The same as on the iPhone? Essentially the apps on the Touch besides Safari are the same as on other iPods: you can sync calendar and contacts to any iPod today. What I find surprising is a lack of Blueooth. You would expect it there for at least headsets. If they were going to go as far as add Wi-Fi they might as well spent the extra $25 for the Bluetooth. Finally, given the reported profit margins of the iPhone, and the $200 price drop, I figure the real price for the 8GB Touch should be around $150 tops. First, does anyone know for sure it has OS X?
