We all knew it was coming, an iPod touch with a Retina Display like the current iPhone. To make it even better, though, Apple has added just about everything but the phone to the new iPod touch.
The latest touch will come not only with the Retina Display, but with a front-facing camera for FaceTime, and a back-facing camera as well. Steve Jobs only mentioned HD video recording for the iPod touch, but it would make sense that it could also take photos, unless Apple doesn’t want to add that feature. It will also contain the Game Center app for competitive gaming, which of course, is also coming to iOS 4.1 with all other devices. Despite being even thinner than the third generation iPod touch, the new version will tout 40 hours of music playback, but will likely not get that with video and apps running.
The new iPod touch will ship in 8, 32 and 64 GB models. They will sell for $229, $299, and $399, respectively. They will go up for pre-order today, and will start shipping next month.
