iPod Touch with camera in 2010: rumours reignite

Apple’s iPod Touch may still be in line for a camera, according to renewed rumours online. We heard rumours of Apple working on a camera-toting iPod Touch in September but now the whispers are back…

According to an “inside source”, who spoke to the LA Gadgets Examiner, Apple did plan to launch an iPod Touch with a camera in September. However, quality control issues allegedly nixed its arrival.

iPod Touch teardown shots have already shown that the device has space for a camera in amongst its digital guts so this speculation sounds convincing. But, of course, it’s easy to claim an “inside source” as Apple never comments on speculation.

The rumours suggest that the next generation of the iPod Touch will include the same camera as the iPod Nano. We’re not so sure about that. Will Apple restrict the iPod Touch to video recording as it has done with the iPod Nano?
