The Firewire chipset was removed from the iPods so that they could make them as small as they are now. Also saves money.
Seriously? I will return this then.
I think on the 5th they will be releasing a touch screen iPod and a new nano of some sort. Supposedly anyway. Maybe paskal has more info than that.

Yeah there's definitely an event on the 5th, so there'll be something - the question is what exactly? All iPods moving to solid-state disks? WiFi on the iPod? WiFi iTunes Store (for new iPods & iPhone). Touch screen iPod? The iPods are (historically) due for a refresh: http://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#iPod
