Many people have been quite disappointed to find out that the latest iPod touch didn’t carry a camera and naturally, everyone assumed that the next-gen iPod touch will be coming with a camera on board. Recent rumors say that this next-gen iPod touch with a built-in camera is coming sooner than expected. In fact we might see it in stores as soon as Spring 2010. Unfortunately that camera won’t be an iPhone-like camera but rather a crappy iPod nano-like camera. We’ll just have to wait for Apple to confirm the rumors before we jump to any conclusions. But what do you say? Anxious to replace your iPod touch with a one that has a camera?

I would have to say the trench run at the very end of Star Wars makes very little sense. After all, why should a Death Star have some weak spot, and why is there a convenient trench leading up to it? Of course, the final battle scene is so cool that you forget this.

Inspiration from these scenes has now been put in an iPhone for Star Wars: Trench Run. Not only can you get into Luke Skywalker’s piloting outfit and “use the force”, but you can even play on the Empire’s side and get rid of those pesky X-wings.

It is available now for $5 at the iTunes app Store, you should know that it has special graphics features for the iPhone 3GS.

Some Apple products are so popular that some people will go to great lengths to steal them. However this is definitely one of the biggest Apple-related robberies. 3,000 to 4,000 iPhones have been stolen in Belgium which is about 2 million Euro worth of stolen goods. So why did the robbers act in Belgium? Well it looks like Belgium iPhones are not SIM locked which means they can be sold anywhere in the world.

The phones will probably be sold outside Belgium as most of them will be blocked from working in Belgium. It will be interesting to see if the robbers will get caught but we’ll keep you updated once we know more about this iPhone crime.
