It would be a brilliant move though... Release the nano, wait a month for stocks to dwindle, then BAM! 80 GB Video iPod. Just in time for xmas shopping season.
It's probably going to be the video AirTunes though, which would be a good way for Apple to gauge the market for a possible iTunes Video Store. As we've seen with the online Serenity teaser, it's definitely possible to stream high quality content to thousands of people simultaneously. I really wouldn't mind paying a few dollars an episode for Battlestar Galactica... It would be a much more tangible way to support the show and help ensure future seasons, since I don't have a Nielsen box in my house (and I always miss it on TV anyway and have to download it).
Are there any plans to expose any game information to the "outside"? It would be pretty handy to have something like a dashboard widget that lets me search the auction house or alerts me when a certain item is on it. Of course, it would be even better to be able to bid, but that might open up things like bid sniping programs and such, so I'd be happy with even a read-only interface.

DRM would make a lot more sense if it were transferrable, much like a physical object is.
