Any Apple iPod enthusiast forums that may have more information on this rumor?
Several of them do, including some that discuss a patent for a touch-screen interface (with photos of the diagrams in the patent application). That lets them use the whole surface for a display. Apparently the bezel around the screen will be touch-sensitive as well, presumably for things like volume control. The big thing I have trouble getting a good reading on is whether or not it will be here in time for the holidays. Maybe I'll just give her a "your gift is coming soon" certificate if it's not.
