Very surprising that no effort was made to update the Touch. Even a modest camera upgrade might have added an unappreciable cost but certainly would have corrected an obvious limitation, served as an incentive for upgrading from an earlier gen, and ultimately contributed to consumer confidence in the product. Now as the chasm between the Touch and Phone continues to widen, we are perhaps left to wonder if Apple really intends to sustain the Touch as a paragon of innovation or eventually let it go the way of the Classic.
