If there were a sixth Gen iPod Touch it would have been announced 10 days ago when Apple had their iPad and Mac event. The current fifth generation of the iPod Touch really is hard to improve on at this point except maybe with respect to the processor. It has the A5 processor which is the same as in the iPhone 4S and typically Apple would not put the same processor in an iPod Touch as you would find in the top of the line model of iPhone at the time which means the A7 processor. It was even surprising to many that Apple put that into the iPad Mini. At best an upgrade this year would have meant the iPod Touch might have come out with the A6 processor, but apart from that last year's upgrade already included most of the good stuff and in any case, the iPod Touch often has been on a 2-year cycle. The current model already has the new form factor with a 4" retina screen, a 5 MP Eyesight rear camera with flash, a front camera for Facetime and Skype, it has Bluetooth 4.0 and simultaneous 2.4 and 5 GHz 802.11N WiFi and it has SIRI. If somebody wants an iDevice but is not ready for an iPhone or an iPad or iPad Mini, then the fifth generation iPod Touch is an excellent deviceand it's much closer in specs to an iPhone than was the case with the third generation iPod Touch or even the fourth generation.
