Per TechHive, Apple on Thursday announced a new version of its 16GB iPod touch, available for just US$199, as well as dropping prices on the 32GB and 64GB models by US$50 and US$100, respectively.

The new iPod touch arrives in pink, yellow, blue, silver, space gray, and (Product) Red colors that the 32GB and 64GB models come in and has the same 5 megapixel iSight camera and loop connector as the previous model.
