Is the next generation of iPod Touches getting a camera upgrade? But not only the camera but as well as a integrated microphone. Tech sites all across the web believe so. According to Wired.com:

A well-connected source tells us those rumors are on the money, and that Apple’s factories in China are already manufacturing iPod Touch models with integrated cameras and microphones. An Apple spokesman declined to comment when reached by phone.

This is really not suprising me as I could see the iPod touch getting this soon. Why? Well because when you think about it iPod touch owners are held off from purchases in Camera Apps, or applications such as Skype because users would have to buy yet another $30 Headset with mic. I'm sure Apple would like some more money coming in with iPod touch users now being able to purchase more apps.

What else could the microphone mean? Well the iPod touch could also be getting the Voice Control feature as well. This would not be a iPhone 3GS and iPod touch 3rd gen only exclusive feature.

Last year the iPod touch 2nd gen came out around Sepetember, we can only wait and cross our fingers to see what Apple has planned for us.
