I guess it’s hard to believe Steve Jobs when he’s saying that the reason for the iPod touch 3G not to have a camera is that the device is a gaming console. That’s why some people went ahead and dismantled an iPod touch and what do you think they found? A 6 x 6 x 3 millimeter space between a Broadcom chip and the wireless antenna where a camera similar to the one found in the iPod nano 5G would definitely fit. And in case you’re wondering, the new iPod touch 3G could, at least in theory support WiFi 802.11n connectivity and Bluetooth 2.1+EDR which could be some of the features we’ll find in the next-gen iPod touch

We’ve seen the BlackBerry Bold 9700 press shot photo way ahead of its official launch so maybe these are the real pictures of the upcoming iPod touch 5G and the iPod nano 3G. Or maybe they are simply photoshopped images meant to grab some attention. We noticed the camera of the touch and bigger screen of the nano but we still require official confirmation. With only a few hours to go we can definitely tell you we’ll keep a keen eye on Apple’s keynote and bring all the hot details to you.

Walkman Beats iPod in Japan

You’d better sit down for this although by the time I finished explaining you’ll see how this isn’t such a big deal after all. Sony’s Walkman players have beaten the Apple’s iPod lineup in sales. According to BCN Inc, a research company from Tokyo, the Walkman series had 43% market share for the week ending on August 30 while iPod came second with 42.1%.

It’s the first time in four years that Sony beats Apple in the music player business but here’s why this isn’t such a big deal. It looks like the iPhone isn’t considered part of the iPod line which means that everyone that purchased an iPhone wasn’t counted. Sure it’s a phone but it’s also a powerful player. And since the iPhone 3GS is the best-selling phone in Japan we wouldn’t be surprised to see the numbers above change a bit.

September 15 is the day when the Zune HD will be finally available but it also happen to be the day when Microsoft will have a Zune software update for everyone else. The new software, possibly the Zune 4.0, will bring you plenty of new features but you’ll have to wait two more weeks to get it. In the mean time it will be interesting to see how the new iPods coming on September 9 will affect Zune HD orders in the following months. What’s your next MP3 player going to be? A Zune or an iPod?

  • Just as it was initially suspected, Apple is ready to launch the new iPods at a special event which is scheduled for September 9. The “only rock and roll” event will take place at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Theater in San Francisco and as you can clearly see it’s only going to be about rock and roll. Is this Apple’s way of telling everyone that the tablet is not ready to be unveiled soon? We’ll tell you more in just a little over a week when Apple will be unveiling its new iPods with cameras on board.
