Fifth-Generation iPod Nano Teardown Posted
iFixit has posted a teardown of the new fifth-generation iPod nano launched yesterday at Apple's "It's Only Rock and Roll" media event. While the teardown reveals very similar construction to the previous-generation model with the obvious exception of the camera module, the images provide an interesting glimpse at the internals of one of Apple's new devices.
Changes from the previous-generation iPod nano highlighted in the teardown include the speaker assembly, which directs the audio out the bottom of the device, and of course the camera, which is substantially thinner than the one found in the iPhone. The main ARM processor is Apple-branded and expected to be a Samsung processor as in the past, and the 8 GB flash memory chip in the dissected unit is from Toshiba.

this makes me want to vomit.....
why didn't the ipod touch get a camera??:D
I'm hoping they decided not to announce itouch with video camera because of the rumored production glitches they had. I'm hoping they will quietly announce release of itouch with video before christmas sales season.

Christmas shopping season begins black friday, the day after thanksgiving!, so hopefully in NOV 2009, or March 2010, we might see a new ipod touch
Holy geez, you people complain about the new iPod touch having no camera on every since thread now. Give it a rest, it doesn't have a camera, oh well. Don't have a heart attack over it.
Well, I'll be honest, I AM MAD! lol
some people sold there old ipod touch to buy a new one!, and MANY people (including myself) were dissapointed.;)

I very much doubt that they would launch this two months from this event. Highly unlikely. Imagine the backlash it would cause and people moaning on these forums.
Next year - most probably yes.

NOT A CHANCE!
...well, a very slim chance. Expect it beyond the new year. They want to shovel out this stuff before renewing any line. If they did it for cost to consumers, they might not upgrade hardware until the recession turns around strongly, or next year at this time.

in that case, it would be your fault. you know better than to guess at what apple is going to release at their events!!! i bet the person you sold it to would probably sell it back to you, with a nice 25% mark up :)
