Leaked picture of Apple iPod Nano 7G shows 1.3MP camera

You gotta love people who risk their lives (well, maybe not lives) and reputations to secretly spy on companies manufacturing new gadgets and get photographs for us to rave and rumor about. The latest in the line of "leaked" photographs comes from a man named Ray. Most credible, don't you think? But it's allegedly a picture of the new 7th generation of the Apple iPod Nano.

Apart from the disturbingly bright shade of pink, the first thing to strike is that the form-factor is largely the same as the current generation, i.e. a square with two rounded sides. Most interestingly, however, it shows that the new Nano has a camera built into it. Now we do know the 5th generation iPod Nano had a camera on it, but it was a lot bigger. How do Apple do it? It obviously isn't a particularly high resolution camera, however, with reports telling us that it is 1.3MP, which would have been considered awesome in, maybe 1998. But, let's give Stevie Jobs some credit, shall we?

Another interesting observation notes that the clip at the back of the iPod, which made the 6G Nano so handy, has been removed. Whether it's just for the one in the picture, or applies to the production line as a whole, time will tell.
