Jan Zdarsa Njengokujwayelekile, i-iFixIt.com ihlukanise ihadiwe yakamuva ye-Apple, futhi kulokhu sithola ukubukeka ngaphakathi kwe-iPod Touch yesizukulwane sesithathu. Njengoba kwenzeka, i-chip entsha ye-Wi-Fi iphinde isekele izinga le-802.11n, futhi ngaphezu kwalokho, indawo encane lapho ikhamera cishe yayivame ukuvela khona.
Ngaphambi komcimbi we-Apple, bekunokuqagela ukuthi kuzovela ikhamera kuma-iPod amasha. Ekugcineni yakwenza, kodwa kuphela nge-iPod Nano. Isizukulwane sesi-5 se-iPod Nano singarekhoda ividiyo, kodwa akakwazi ukuthatha izithombe. USteve Jobs uphawule ukuthi i-iPod Nano incane kakhulu futhi izacile kangangokuthi ubuchwepheshe bamanje bokuthatha izithombe ngokulungiswa kanye ne-autofocus efana ne-iPhone 3GS ngeke ingene ku-iPod Nano, ngakho yahlala inama-optics ekhwalithi ephansi yokuqoshwa kwevidiyo kuphela.
Futhi njengoba kubonakala, i-Apple ihlele ukubeka le lensi ukuze iqoshwe ividiyo ku-iPod Touch. Lokhu kuboniswa yisikhala ezindaweni lapho ikhamera ivele khona ekuqaguleni kwangaphambili, futhi ngale khamera bekukhona nama-prototypes amaningana. Phela, ngisho ne-iFixIt.com ikuqinisekisile lokho kule ndawo ama-optics acinywe kancane avela ku-iPod Nano. Ngaphambi nje komcimbi we-Apple, bekunenkulumo ethi i-Apple inezinkinga ngokukhiqizwa kwama-iPod ngekhamera, ngakho-ke i-iPod Touch cishe bekukhulunywa ngayo. Kodwa mhlawumbe kwakungezona izinkinga zokukhiqiza, kodwa izinkinga zokumaketha.
I-prototypes enekhamera yanyamalala cishe inyanga ngaphambi kwenkulumo eyisihluthulelo, futhi kungenzeka ukuthi uSteve Jobs naye wangenelela kuyo yonke into. Mhlawumbe akakuthandanga ukuthi idivayisi ye-premium (okuyinto i-iPod Touch ngokuqinisekile eyiyo) ingaqopha ividiyo kodwa angikwazanga ukuthatha izithombe. Uma iqhathaniswa ne-Microsoft Zune HD kakhulu, futhi ama-naysayers angakhuluma kuphela ngokuthi i-iPod Touch ine-hardware yekhwalithi ephansi kangangokuthi ayikwazi ngisho nokuthatha isithombe. Futhi amakhasimende ngeke aneliseke ngoba angalindela ukuthi uma i-iPod Touch ine-optics, ingakwazi ukuthatha izithombe.
Kodwa isekhona indawo yokubeka optics ku-iPod Touch, ngakho umbuzo uthi i-Apple ihlela ukusebenzisa le ndawo esikhathini esizayo futhi ekugcineni ibeke ikhamera ku-iPod Touch. Ngokwami, angikulindele ngaphambi konyaka ozayo, kodwa kwazi bani..
Kukhona enye into ethokozisayo nge-iPod Touch yesizukulwane sesi-3. I-chip ye-Wi-Fi isekela izinga le-802.11n (futhi kanjalo nokuthunyelwa okungenantambo okusheshayo), kodwa i-Apple inqume ukungasisebenzisi lesi sici okwamanje. Angiyena uchwepheshe futhi ngingaqagela nje ukuthi inethiwekhi yeNk izoba yisidingo kakhulu ebhethrini, kodwa noma kunjalo i-chip ku-iPod Touch iyalisekela leli zinga futhi kuku-Apple ukunika amandla lesi sici ku-firmware yayo esikhathini esithile esizayo. . Ngokubona kwami, abathuthukisi ikakhulukazi bangayamukela.
