iPod Touch, Nano & Classic Will Gain 3.2MP Camera

Apple’s next-generation iPods
- including the iPod touch, nano and classic – will carry 3.2 megapixel cameras supplied by Taiwan’s, OmniVision.
As 9to5Mac reported last week, the new generation iPods are expected to be introduced at an Apple special event on September 9
Reports this morning claim OmniVision has secured CMOS image sensor (CIS) orders for the upcoming products. It will supply “
for the new iPod nano, iPod classic and iPod touch models which will be launched in September,”* sources claim.
The company is one of the 3.2-megapixel CIS suppliers for the iPhone 3GS and is expected to ship 18 million CIS products to Apple per quarter.
Apple is also expected to introduce a new version of iTunes, equipped with social networking features including the capacity to depatch songs played to Facebook, iLike and Last.fm. The new software is also expected to support direct import of Digital Copy movies from Blu-ray discs. Some speculate on updates to the Apple TV at the event.

I hope it gets a video camera.
I forestalled Finally getting an iPod, I use a SansaClip with this
feature in mind.
I think the iPod Classic will have a better camera than the iPhone 3Gs? I’m sure 3Gs owners will be pleased.
Thanks for the information
