Ipod Touch – 802.11n,room for camera

After Apple released new series of Ipod devices in the Rock and Roll event,most of the users would be unhappy with the fact that ipod nano came with a camera while Ipod Touch didn’t.My friends were cursing Apple what on earth was Apple thinking when they implemented this strange idea.iFixit just tore apart the iPod touch revealing that a camera may still be forthcoming, as well as possible 802.11n support in the iPhone OS. iFixit has been quick on the draw at taking Apple's latest offerings apart, first with a dissection of the new iPod nano and now with the 32GB iPod touch.

According to hardware experts, , the new iPod touch supports a newer Broadcom chip that supports 802.11n, though the touch doesn't make use of it just yet.The chip in the 32GB (and presumably 64GB) iPod touch is the Broadcom BCM4329—slightly newer than the iPhone 3GS' Broadcom BCM4325. The '329 chip is capable of going up to the faster 802.11n while the '325 is only capable of 802.11b/g, which iFixit notes is "a big deal."

Additionally, iFixit says that it seems Apple left room for a camera near the top of the device. "There is a 6mm x 6mm x 3mm space between the Broadcom chip and the wireless antenna," iFixit wrote via e-mail. "There isn’t enough depth for an iPhone-style autofocus still camera, but just enough room for the camera that Apple used in the 5th generation iPod nano."Well this news might have brightened up, atleast some of them.What’s say !
