Camera coming to the iPod Touch?

TechCrunch was recently told by one of it’s sources in Asia that Apple has “placed an order for a massive number of camera modules of the type they include in the iPhone. These are inexpensive cameras, in the $10 range. And the size of the order, our source says, means they can only be used for one thing – the iPods”.
MacRumors is taking this rumor a step further and posting screenshots of what appears to be an iPod Touch 3G case with a hole for the camera. What’s even more interesting is that MacRumors has also posted a picture of an iPod Nano case that has a hole for a camera as well.
While I don’t think there will be a camera coming to the iPod Nano, it does seem reasonable for Apple to add it to the new iPod Touch. I predict that Apple will not only add a camera, but they will also upgrade the processor and graphics chips, and also double the RAM of the iPod Touch 3G.
Apple usually launches new iPods in the month of September so it won’t be too long until we find out whether or not this rumor is true. I’m hoping this rumor is true, having camera on the iPod Touch would be really useful to a lot of us. What do you think? Leave a comment below.

Really? They came out with the new Itouch and it only has 16 32 and 64gb memories. there is no camera. the 32 and 64gb models are faster than the 16gb. look it up on the website. christ. next year or maybe before christmas they will put one out with a camera. apple is notorious for screwing people over with new technology coming out right after each other.
I hope they at least put a camera on the ipod touch by christmas. I’s also wondering, to upgrade to the camera itouch, would u have to send it in to apple?
What the &^%& is an Ipod Touch 3G? There’s no such gadget from apple. It’s either an iPhone3G or an Ipod Touch.
3G stands for 3rd Generation and has nothing to do with Phone service or speed. Well, at least where the Tough is concerned.
I would hope that not only a camera, but also a microphone would be added to the Touch!
They need to put a camera on the next generation!
Apples like cars they slowly change little thing for they can get money out of you instead of jumping to the good stuff . it’s all about money !! hell i know you all have an idea for a ultimate device better than apple could ever think of .
