Meh... For them to really sell facetime, they must have a second camera. Otherwise, it's half-Facetime. Plus, it's a big selling point. I might not upgrade if it only has one front camera. I can't take videos very easily with a front camera.
Got a tip for us?

All these other threads are making this one less relevant! In an excuse to bump, I don't think the iPod touch 4G will have a flash bulb. It isn't totally necessary. Who else agrees?
Flash would be nice, but I don't think Apple will give out all of their goodies to the touch yet. They tend to drag out the years giving only minor upgrades along the way. More GB or a better processor are not major upgrades.
I agree. No flash, at least not this year. In all honestly, the flash on the iPhone, though bright, isn't a great flash. I mean, it's no replacement for a camera flash. It tends to light things up unevenly. It's range is limited, and when you're closer to an image it can wash out whatever is closest, especially faces.
I'm fine with no flash, and I don't see it happening anyway.
Yeah. Apple seemed to market flash as a premium feature, anyway, so I think you're right.
Next year, I guess.
It would be if the price of that much memory wasnt that high.. IF they make a 128gb option its going to be along the lines of $500+

Does 128gb of memory today cost more than 64gb of memory cost a year ago? You could be right, but I could see them doing the 128gb for $399.
Edit to add: I think also that Apple might be in a position to get a volume discount.
Yeah... I'm not sure about flash memory prices, but I think it's pretty expensive for a 128GB chip. Let the prices fall, then hope for 128GB.
Nope. sorry, I live in Japan (close enough to Akihabara to say) there are no iPod Touches with cameras over here yet. At least (like a qualifier is necessary) not among the daily users you're referring to.
Not entirely sure what you're saying about the integrated mic...
If you're asking about it's probability, I'd say it's roughly equal to the probability of the iPod touch getting Facetime. The headphone mic wouldn't do the trick for Facetime, so at least a crappy integrated mic would make it much better.
Also, I don't live in Japan, but I think the camera story is ridiculous as well. We in the US would have heard about it more if Japan had cameras in its iPod touches.

The A4 processor has had over 85% pretty much this whole time. I think this is a "confirmation" of A4, albeit a soft one.
Well we'll see. If u ask me most of the who voted choosed what they wish ipod touch 4 will have..
The only problem with this topic is that most of the community at MacRumours voted for what they 'want' to be in the new iPod Touch, not what is 'going to happen' in the configuration in the upcoming iPod Touch.
^^ Just saying, not meant for any arguments...

Unfortunately, we don't fully know. So hopefully someone from Apple visits threads like this and says, "Why not give them a treat this year". I think that is pretty unlikely, but maybe they would get things through their heads; like how almost no one likes chrome. They need to get opinion surveys from somewhere.
9/13. I was hoping for an iphone 4 look though. I guess I'll need to suffer through it...
The rear camera takes good pictures as well, I don't know what you're waiting for.
