Yes, it's really come to the point where a casual reference on Daring Fireball to the next generation iPod touch 4 -- with rear and front FaceTime cameras and Retina Display screen coming in a few weeks -- gets plastered all over the internet.
if you wait a few weeks to buy the Touch, you’ll get one with a Retina Display and dual cameras.
Apple has introduced the last 3 generations of iPod touch at their special iTunes and iPod-centric music event held each fall.
Gruber's reference to the new iPod touch came by way of comparison to the Android 1.7 powered, 5-inch screen Dell Streak which at $200 on contract and $550 outright, doesn't even seem competitive to past iPod touches and iPads, let alone what's coming next from Apple.
Then again, Apple's had a hard time meeting demand for iPhone 4 and iPad, some suspect due to constraints on their high quality IPS display panels. Has capacity recently been ramped up, or will things get even tighter with iPod touch wanting its share this holiday season?
