  • Apple's iPod Touch getting 2-megapixel camera?

    Another day, another leaked Apple prototype? The latest comes from Vietnamese site Tinhte, which is showing off what it claims may be a new version of Apple's iPod Touch.

    A new jailbreak for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches has been released, mere days after of the iPad 3G release in the US.

  • Hey, Apple, why no video camera for the iPod touch?

    Wednesday's Apple Music Event may not have unveiled any astounding or amazing products. But if you're a fan of the iPod touch, as I am, you may have felt a bit miffed that Apple's multi-talented media player didn't get a video camera.
