iPod touch 4G prototype shows up on eBay, following iPhone 4G leak

iPod touch 4GThe iPhone 4G prototype hardware with iPhone 4.0 software was leaked to popular tech blog Gizmodo. It was confirmed to be real, thanks to Apple sending Gizmodo a legal notice and retrieving the iPhone 4G from them. Now an iPod touch 4G  listing with a camera on the back was recently spotted on eBay (item no. 250617991364) and then removed without any reason.

Earlier this year rumors of the iPod touch getting a camera were really strong, but when Apple launched the new iPod touch in September there was no camera and many Apple fans were disappointed. New iPod touch releases are usually in September, so we won’t find out whether or not Apple has added a camera in the iPod touch for at least 4 months.

      It Doesn’t look real. Why is it all scratched up? And Steve jobs said he doesn’t want to put a camera in the iPod touch.

        Yes, It doesn’t make any sense. 2.0 mega pix is totally useless garbage and that prototype doesn’t look real. Do you believe Jobs will attach that garbage cam on i-touch?
        It is totally rumor and downgrading Apple company and Jobs! What a bad cyclops!

    Yeah right,

    If that’s an Apple prototype it must have been one made in the 80′s. It looks like a gadget from starwars and not something to match today’s standards.
    This report is a waist of time and space.

      Only a smart ass like you would spell “waste” wrong

      • Raymond says:

        Exactly… Terry, your comment is also a “waist” of space with it’s incorrect spelling.

        • Dexter says:

          And Terry, the fact that it looks exactly like the current iPod Touch, just with a small, black dot on the back makes you look like an idiot, especially because you said it was from the 80′s. Think before you comment. Thnx.

    I know someone whose uncle works at apple. For his birthday he got an iPod touch generation 6. He showed it to me and it does not have a camera. But it uses Bluetooth to generate an artificial 3g. Also it has phone on it ( the plan does not have many minutes, no texting and you need a mic.

    this isnt going to be the next ipod touch. If there going to change the exterior of the iphone 4g (http://gizmodo.com/5520164/this-is-apples-next-iphone) then why wouldn’t they change the shape for the itouch.

    • BlackE says:

      trudat- the next itouch will probably be more square like the iphone 4 and reminiscient to the 1st itouch, and less curvy like the 2nd & 3rd

  5. Jacob says:

    Steve Jobs is to greety to make iphone os 4 with all these great new features along with new camera features to not put one on the itouch

  6. WillyWonka says:

    if they do release an ipod 4g it will be in June or July

    yea you cant believe any picture on the intenet- its called Photoshop. and i saw a picture like this before the 2nd gen itouch was released claiming the same thing “2nd Gen ipod touch to have built-in camera”. so get real- the itouch will never have a camera. and why do we need a camera on an ipod anyway? i mean we all have cell phones and digital cameras… and a basic fact is, the smaller and cheaper camera is, the more it sucks.
