iPod touch ~Strange dot (camera?) on my 1st Gen iPod??~

[J B]

Maybe every iPod touch has this, or its a common thing that I've never heard about but..... my iPod touch has a weird circle/dot on the upper left part of my first generation ipod touch. I bought it in December 2007 (pretty old), and have noticed it for a while... it seems to be a little lighter (like light brown, almost red) then the surrounding black, and appears to be under the glass covering.

the pink case has a circle opening right where the dot is:

so, anyone else have this dot, or know what it is?
thanks

Ambient light sensor

That would be a hole for the itouch's light/brightness sensor. Sorry no camera

ya i was positive it wasnt a working camera, but hoping it could have been some kind of prototype with an idea for a camera

Haha, a public release of a prototype. It would be interesting, but Steve Jobs (especially) would never allow that!

It has happened ... there have been confirmed MBA and MBP prototypes posted on here.

Its a secret camera that records all the time and then sends the info back to apple so they can spy on you.
