Apples unveils all new 64GB iPod Touch (3G) without built-in camera

Apple today at the 'Rock and Roll' Event in San Francisco introduced the all new third generation 64GB iPod Touch. This media player now has the same processing power as the iPhone 3GS and is about 50 percent faster than the older model and supports the same Open GLS 2.0 visual effects. Apple also unveiled iPhone OS 3.1 for the device. Show me more...

Surprisingly the most anticipated feature of a built-in camera is missing from the new iPod Touch. Off late there have been many reports suggesting that Apple had hardware issues with the camera and hence the capability had to be scrapped.

During the presentation Apple also pushed the iPod touch as a "pocket computer� with the device's ability to surf the Web, check e-mail, manage calendars, organize contacts, and access popular Web sites like Facebook and Twitter.

Apple also has updated the other iPod touch models by lowering the price of the entry model and increasing storage and speed in the two more expensive models. The price of the 8GB model has dropped from $229 to $199. This is the first time that the iPod touch has broken the $200 barrier.

Also the $299 16GB and $399 32GB iPod Touch models have been replaced with 32GB and 64GB versions selling for the same prices.
