Could iPods be getting cameras?

AppleInsider are reporting on rumours that are doing the rounds on the net, "that when Apple refreshes its iPod touch and iPod nano players later this September, both will feature a camera like the iPhone."

As with AppleInsider, I can see the logic behind Apple adding a camera to the Touch, and 100% agree with them when they say "it would nearly double the market for camera-related applications on the App Store set to explode following the release of next-generation iPhones, which will include video recording capabilities as one of their biggest features."

Although it is also being suggested (by some websites) that the Nano could also get a camera, I think this is unlikely, as it wouldn't add any value to the Nano, and as any iPhoneographer will tell you, it is the apps that make the iPhone's camera stand out from all other camera phones out there. So unless the Nano has some built-in apps to view and manipulate, as well as a method of sharing the photos it takes quickly and easily, then I can't see this happening, but then again I could be wrong, but what do you think?

Of course only time will tell if these rumours have any substance to them, but with WWDC just around the corner, who knows, we might just see an iPod Touch with 3.2 megapixel camera announced!!

iPod with a camera is a great idea but they will need to improve the quality of the image, i still think that a 3.2mp camera would be nice on the iPod and the iPhone but not good enough, other mobile phone company's are producing a 5mp or an 8mp camera with a flash and just as slim as the iPod touch and the iPhone.

I want an iPod touch but am holding out only because I really want it to have a camera, so fingers crossed this happens :) I'd love it to be a 5 megapixel camera minimum too (not very likely though is it?). I wonder also if they double the flash memory of the iPod touch (64gb please??).

Peace to all, love the site, thanks for all the info :)
