Artist Rendition of 5G iPod Nano with Camera?


iLounge posts an artist rendition of what it believes the next-generation iPod nano will look like. According to the site, the new iPod nano will see a wider screen (1:5:1 ratio), smaller click wheel, and built-in camera.

Finally, theres a camera on the back in an unusual location, one which conceivably might be blocked by hands except when the iPod nano is corner-gripped for photography. It will debut at the same time as the new iPod touch, between July and September. Our gut feeling is September.

The report seems to confirm a recent claim from HardMac that the new iPod Nano will contain a camera. Of interest, HardMac also said in the same report that the next iPod Touch would also include a camera. Both models are expected to be refreshed around September of this year.

iLounge has been accurate in the past with their artist renditions.

That really is a bit of a bizarre place to put it. Perhaps the screen and thinness of the device is limiting its placement.

I don't think this will happen.
The Apple we know would never do this.

not too sure about the position of the camera. i really don't see the point of a camera on a nano anyways

So I get that it could work, given you only take pics while holding the iPod in landscape, but there's no button to press to actually take the picture! You'd think the artist who rendered this would have put in a little button - pressing the click-wheel while holding it in landscape would be crazy.

Not sideways, which would be the appropriate way to hold it for picture taking. Right thumb hits the center button, click!

But no, it's an iPod. There will be no camera.

Artist renditions are nothing more than speculation with illustration. Someone took their speculation and made a pic of it. I won't believe it until someone hears something from Apple.

I think the idea is you'd hold the iPod on its side (with the screen in landscape) rather than upside down. Rather weird placement though.

Just an artist mock up.
