Apple to unveil white iPod Touch alongside iPhone 5

No 3G support?

With the hype over the next-gen iPhone in full swing, all talk of an iPod Touch refresh has been pushed to the side. Well, no longer. According to insiders, the new iPod Touch will be reissued next month with a white body.

The information comes by way of MacRumours, which reckons that, apart from the colour difference, a revamped ambient light sensor and an oleophobic display coating, little else will change.

If as claimed, all internal specification remains the same, it would unfortunately put an end to rumours of an iPod Touch 3G.

Apple is expected to introduce its latest PMP, as well as a tweaked iPod Nano and of course, the highly-anticipated iPhone 5, in October. I'll believe that when I see it, though. ®

iPod Touch 3g?

Anonymous cowards cannot choose their icon?

I still want an iPhone shuffle... No screen but you'd press a button and it would dial a contact at random.

128GB iPod Touch please!

I'm still holding out for a 128GB iPod Touch so I can retire my Classic. Though to be honest I don't think such a product will exist due to various things inder the iCloud.

So at this rate it's another year of the perfectly fuctional but appless Classic, though at least I have the iPad to statisfy my sofa surfing app needs.

Hey, let's sue Apple for once

The post said it has a white body. Oooooh. I don't think that is PC (Alright, double crap joke there, but I had to do it).

Once again... me...grumpy says

Why the hell do we derive words from Greek or Latin?

So... "Oleophobic" (from the Greek (oleo) "oil") in the article

But why not just OilPhobic. Scared of Oil ?

I know, I know, some smart arsed Greek/Latin person will say, actually "phobic" comes from... well insert what ever word you want to.... (Yes I've had a bad day!) But good luck to you ladies and gents for tomorrow.
