Vietnam Beat: iPod touch with 2MP Camera Spotted
   


(Image & video courtesy of AppleInsider)The new, undisputed hotbed of Apple product leaks is Vietnam, where the website Tinhte.vn has once again scooped us all with an iPod touch complete with two-megapixel camera.AppleInsider is reporting that an iPod touch with a two-megapixel camera has turned up in the hands of Vietnamese website Tinhte.vn, although it’s not immediately clear if the device is a scrapped prototype from last year or a pending new release.Most everyone expected Apple to add a camera to the iPod touch last September, and indeed a teardown of the refreshed device showed a space for one. No one knows exactly why Apple apparently scrapped the camera at the last minute, although “technical issues” were cited by insider sources.A sticker on the back of Tinhte’s iPod touch reveals that the camera, with a part number OV2665-6s, is manufactured by Omnivision, who also provides the 3.2 megapixel camera for the iPhone 3GS. However, the iPod touch in question features only a two-megapixel camera.AppleInsider notes that the iPod touch “also sports 64GB of capacity, and a serial number identical to the September, 2009 model” -- which could point to the leak being simply a prototype of last year’s model rather than a glimpse of what may come with this year’s refresh.Tinhte.vn has provided a gaggle of photos of the iPod touch as well as a hands-on video embedded below for your enjoyment.
