new-ipod-touchApple’s annual iPod event wasn’t full of many surprises, although the lack of a camera on the iPod touch did shock seasoned Cupertino watchers. However, a new report suggests that a snapper is on its way to the high–end jukebox. Keep reading for all the gossip.

Apple’s failure to slap a camera round the back of the iPod touch this week was certainly a surprise. Case manufacturers had already started churning out their wares with a dedicated spot for a peeper and spy shots showed a model in all its glory.

However, sources have told AppleInsider that another update will soon see the same camera from the iPod nano on the iPod touch. Word is this is all down to delays in getting the parts ready and working, as we reported earlier this week.

All this in spite of Steve Jobs saying the iPod touch was more a gaming device than a camera one. Expect the top boss to go back on his words soon, if these reports turn out t be true.

    “If Apple enabled 802.11n in the iPod touch, we could see a lot of new uses come to the device, including video streaming, wireless sync/home sharing, on-device video rental, and many other possibilities.”

      Really? You think? It’s plenty quick enough to stream things to / from my home network, but if I’m at home why would I want to? I’d rather watch them on a bigger screen – the TV or a laptop, for instance. Why would I want to squint at the iPhone or iPod touch? Of course, when it comes to proper downloads, such as the on-device video rental you suggest, it’s pointless – your home wireless (or any wireless for that matter) is only as fast connecting to the web as the internet connection it has. 2MB internet won’t be any quicker over N wi-fi than G.
