It was only a matter of time until Apple’s iPod Touch was going to get a makeover in light of the iPhone 4′s release, but we didn’t expect we’d find out about it this way!
Major UK iPod retailer, John Lewis have spilled the beans on the upcoming device at their Christmas showcase in London – and yes, you guessed it, Apple haven’t officially announced it yet! While the specs haven’t been confirmed, senior figures from the company said they were based on “noises” heard from suppliers. The new iPod Touch is expected to sport:
- A 5MP camera with flash
- HD video recording
- Gyroscope
- Facetime
However, there was no mention of an upgraded screen. Essentially, it sounds like it’s going to be an iPhone 4 just without the phone! Considering John Lewis’ position within the retail market, we reckon this is pretty legitimate stuff but they’re not fuelling Apple’s rumours fire alone as photos of what could be the new iPod Touch have just appeared online too:
Either way, with Apple traditionally announcing new iPod’s in September, we think they’ll be keeping tight-lipped until then. John Lewis, on the other hand, might be hearing from them sooner…
