well yea of course, we all can prolly figure that one out

and yea, people probably do carry around phones anyways.

Now if you could record HD Video that would be something to shout about, and potentially worth the price premium. It would also chew through batteries faster than Godzilla through tower blocks.

That'd be a fun addition. I wish apple would spend the money upgrading the iPod's internal amp.

It would probably be cheaper for them to only manufacture one type of body.

I can see this feature being introduced in the ipod touch g3 at its current pricepoint

This would be really nice. I love taking pictures of things that need a fail designation. I have my Touch 24/7 and my Cellphone never takes the photo well and usually screws up somehow.
