How much for 8Gb + 16Gb iPod Touch after Steve's Sep 9th keynote?

Settled as more than $500

$528. So much for the big price drop rumors! The 8GB went to $229 and the 16Gb to $299.

http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/09/ipod-touch-updated-same-screen-new-case/

Background:

Apple is holding a product launch conference with a Steve Jobs keynote on Tuesday 9th September.

There are expectations the prices of the iPod touch will be dropped, as currently an 8Gb costs $299 and a 16Gb costs $399 compared to the new 8Gb iPhone costing only $199 (with AT&T subsidy). Rumors suggest the 8Gb could be discontinued or dropped to $99, and the 16Gb dropped to $199.

This question is based on the new iPod touch prices that Steve Jobs announces at his keynote. It is asking what the total price of a 8Gb and 16Gb iPod touch together will be. If either is discontinued then its cost will not contribute to the sum. If both are discontinued the question will be voided.

If no iPod touch price changes are announced, prices will be taken from the apple.com store at the end of the keynote.

Settlement details: Prices taken as those given by Steve Jobs in his keynote. If no iPod touch price changes are announced, prices will be taken from the apple.com store at the end of the keynote.
