The buzz of recent rumors floating from Cupertino wouldn’t be complete without the prediction of the Nano and Touch being equipped with a camera. Experts are leaning more toward the rumor that the Nano alone would gain the embedded picture clicker, and would hopefully have better resolution than just 2.0 megapixels.
The prospect of having a camera on your MP3 player may seem a bit unnecessary. That is one argument that casts the rumor toward the ’suspicious’ category. However, Apple is always one to surprise. Cameras on telephones seemed a bit over-the-top at first, too, until every phone came out with them. Some have begun suggesting that iPhones will next have a video feature, which could place them a notch above the Nano camera capability. That would still keep the iPhone in the always-better category of Apple’s products.
One feature of the discussion that elicits curiosity is the close relationship between the iPhone and the iPod, not to mention the Touch. Since the iPhone can do everything that the Touch and Nano can do, why add features to either one that makes them more like each other? Will there be a middle ground where they twain shall meet in one device? It’s too early to predict. Other tech rumors, surveyed elsewhere, suggest the birth of a new iPhone in the not-so-distant future.
