Apple sure took long enough to get to this, but just as rumored, the iPod nano is seeing a hotly-anticipated refresh today. The big addition? A camera that just so happens to shoot live video. On the lower left of the new fifth-generation nano, you'll find the camera as well as a speaker and microphone, but unfortunately you'll have to sync it with your computer before you upload clips to YouTube. The camera-laden nanos will be available starting today in a rainbow's worth of hues (nine, if we're being precise), with the 8GB model pegged at $149 and the 16GB edition at $179. Oh, and oddly / tragically enough, the iPod nano is officially the only dedicated iPod with a camera, leaving the iPod touch -- and every human on the planet -- scratching their head in befuddlement.
As for other specs, you'll find a built-in FM tuner with Live Pause (!) and iTunes Tagging, a pedometer (you know, for that fancy Nike+ integration), VoiceOver, support for voice memos and a larger 2.2-inch display (up from 2.0-inches) with a 376 x 240 resolution. As for the camera, we're told that the video capture mode snags footage in VGA quality (640 x 480) H.264, with up to 30fps and AAC audio. If you're feeling fancy, there's also 15 real-time special effects including Sepia, Black and White, X-Ray, Film Grain, Thermal, Security Cam, Cyborg, Bulge, Kaleido and Motion Blur (among others). As for dimensions, the 5G nano remains identical to the 4G nano at 3.6- x 1.5- x 0.24-inches, though it somehow shaves a whopping 0.02 ounces as it climbs down from 1.3 to 1.28 ounces. Curious about battery life? Apple claims that the new nano can last up to 24 hours when playing back audio (same as 4G nano), while video playback should zap the rechargeable battery in just five hours (which is up an hour over its predecessor).

Yeah, so all those reports about a new scheme to "stimulate sales of CD-length music" were true, and then some: On top of extras with for albums and movies, iTunes 9 comes with media sharing (!) and iPhone app management.
Here's what's new in the most significant upgrade to iTunes in years:
iTunes LPs: These are effectively like bonus CDs for digital albums. Each one comes with only get if you plunk down nearly $20 on the whole album. Along with that, you get video content—in most cases, live concert recordings—as well as photo albums and lyrics, which serve as sort of modern-day liner notes, I guess? The description also mentions even more tracks, none of which are listed, downloadable or not, in the normal iTunes panel. So, it's sort of like buying one of those loaded-up "Digipack" CDs people used to release, except on iTunes. Many albums come with a special display mode, so all this fancy new content isn't just dump into iTunes' regular audio and video browsers.
iTunes Extra: Like iTunes LPs for films, this gives you a downloadable equivalent of DVD extras, with interviews, extra clips and photo galleries. Some of the extras, like the ones for Wall-E shown here, are a little more interactive, and have their own full interface.
A New Store: As for the store itself, all content is now organized in a new iTunes interface, which looks a lot more like a software interface, and less like a heavily-formatted webpage. For example, you can now quick-view albums, which opens a Preview-style windows that lets you see what's behind a given link in the store, and there's an ever-present menu bar that lives up top, replacing the cumbersome breadcrumb navigation that was there before.
Media Sharing: The software's getting some pretty fantastic new functionality outside the store as well—we've got media sharing, at least on your local network: You can copy songs, movies, and TV shows to up to 5 authorized computers, or simply stream them. This is pretty huge, and a definite about-face for Apple, who's been stripping out sharing functionality from iTunes for a while.
An App Manager: On the iPhone/iPod front, now you can rearrange and manage apps from iTunes, which was one of those stupid-simple feature upgrades people (and by people, I mean we) have been clamoring for for months. Apple's version of the app manager is more well thought out than the concepts we've seen before, which were already droolworthy. Apps can be dragged and dropped, either alone or in groups, and selectively synced. Awesome.
Syncing, Genius and Social Networking: A few odds and ends here—iTunes 9 also brings finer sync controls, including options to sync genres or artists, instead of just playlists. New "Genius Playlists," which are just general library mixes that iTunes thinks you'll like, rathers that the old Genius playlists, which were based on a particular artist.
To put this another way, iTunes, did you just get good?

iTunes 9 is available today, as is plenty of iTunes LP and Extra content. For more, stay tuned to our liveblog.

As expected, the iPod touch third generation is here. It comes in 16, 32, and 64 GB—for $199, $299, and $399. The new 32 and 64GB version has a faster processor, 50% faster. Just like the iPhone 3GS. Also like the iPhone 3GS, the graphics processor in the new iPod touch has OpenGL ES 2.0 capability. No wonder they are pushing so much on the gaming front.
No sight of the rumored camera. A lot of case manufacturers are going to spend a lot of time fixing holes.

As well-documented by the "word on the street," the fifth generation iPod nano is also a camera...and a bunch of other stuff too...and it's available today. Details:
• Video camera (640x480)
• Integrated mic
• Integrated speaker
• FM Radio!!!!!
• One-click YouTube uploads
• Voice Over like Shuffle
• Pedometer with Nike+ syncing online
• Voice Recorder
• 2.2-inch screen is possibly larger than last model
Starting today, the 8GB nano will cost $150 while the 16GB comes in at $180. (So why buy the 16?) So what's the biggest surprise here? The camera we knew about. But the radio? The video support? I do have to admit, if it's this or a Flip, the nano is certainly more tempting.

Apple boss Steve Jobs has made his first public appearance after almost a year of cancer treatment, at a product launch in San Francisco.
Mr Jobs' last major public appearance was in October 2008, unveiling a new MacBook, since when he has been absent because of ill health.
Earlier this year, Mr Jobs had a liver transplant in a Tennessee hospital.
Apple is thought to be ready to update its range of iPods, amid speculation over the future of the iPod Classic.
Mr Jobs won a standing ovation as he walked on stage, after which he thanked the young man who donated his liver, and urged the audience all to become organ donors.
But it was not long before the notoriously private Mr Jobs got down to business, saying that the iTunes Store was now the number one global music retailer and that ringtones would soon be available for download.
There was also news of an upgrade for the iPhone operating system, with the firm claiming to have sold over 30 million handsets.
Mr Jobs attributed its success to the Apple App Store which, he said, now has more than 75,000 applications.

Oh for god's sake tomorrow, just happen already. As if prior case leaks and Apple's heavy-handed messaging weren't enough, Best Buy's gone and listed a batch of new Belkin cases for the 3rd-gen iPod Touch and 5th-gen Nano.
Unfortunately there aren't any pictures, but we can surmise two things from this. First, there will almost definitely be new iPods of both varieties tomorrow. This is possibly the worst-kept secret, ever.
Second, these iPods will be sufficiently different from prior models such that they require different cases. I mean, accessory makers will take any excuse to make a new line of accessories, but neither the Nano or the Touch are due for any massive structural changes, so the most obvious reason for new shells would be holes for a camera and mic. At any rate, we'll be at the event tomorrow—I just hope there's something left to announce by then.

T-Mobile and Orange plan to merge their UK businesses, creating a mobile phone giant with 28.4 million customers. If completed, a deal between Deutsche Telekom's T-Mobile and Orange owner France Telecom would see a firm with sales of €9.4 B (£7.0 B, $13.4 B). It would be the UK's largest provider, overtaking Telefonica's O2, with about 37% of the mobile market. ... However, it is likely that competition authorities in the UK and EU will probe the deal.

Rob Hearn sends in a piece up at PocketGamer.co.uk on why Apple suddenly pulled Manomio's C64 emulator soon after finally approving it. (El Reg has coverage too.)
"It was a glorious few moments for retro gamers when Manomio's C64 emulator was finally approved by Apple and released to the eager, nostalgic iPhone public. Then, calamity! It was gone again. Apparently some wily users figured out how to access the Commodore 64 BASIC system that was originally packaged with the emulator — something that Apple wasn't too happy with, given the nature of the interpreter's code. By setting the keyboard to 'always on', launching a game and restarting BASIC, players got into the 'empty shell' of their C64 emulator."

Sony Europe's head of developer relations, Zeno Colaco, has gone all USA-hardcore on Apple when it comes to how both companies deal with developers. This, of course, comes as Sony's PSP attempts to take on Apple's iPhone in the 'snackable' applications market.
Colaco starts by telling Develop, "Unlike with the App Store, we’re looking to support everyone that develops for us, instead of leaving developers out in the wilderness." Ouch.
But then Zeno slaps Apple AppStore devs as well, "I’m not suggesting that iPhone developers are unprofessional, but I think that the App Store has attracted a number of hobbyists. Clearly, the PSP is designed for gaming." Ouch.
So, how is Sony going to avoid having a bunch of rank amateurs all over its platform? Easy, "We’re not immediately interested in giving developers free access and no help", charging for development.

Gone is the era when the television remote control was a fascinating, much cherished device and beloved member of the family.
By conventional standards, the TV remote is old hat - nothing new or exciting. And while still practical and very helpful around the living room, its stature has been steadily diminished by a wide array of much neater, sexier gadgets in recent years.
This summer served yet another blow to the ego of remote controls everywhere, as advancements in the smartphone realm continue at a pace that could very well see the television remote facing extinction before the familiar little gadgets can even brace for it - like an asteroid penetrating our atmosphere to obliterate the dinosaurs before the poor creatures even knew what him 'em.

Manomio's C64 emulator has finally been approved for iPhone and can be bought for the princely sum of £2.99.
Bundled games are Dragons Den, Le Mans, Jupiter Lander, Arctic Shipwreck and Jack Attack.
More will be released soon, according to the App Store listing - including Bristle, Astro Cheese and Commodore Sports Pack I.
But they're old, so we're not sure why you'd bother.

An amazing surveillance tape of a burglary in progress at a New Jersey Apple Store shows five perps in masks smashing the plate-glass doors at 2:05 a.m., signaling to the security guard that they had a gun, and clearing off the display tables with the efficiency of a Indy 500 pit crew. The take: 23 MacBook Pros, 14 iPhones and 9 iPod touches in 31 seconds flat. Estimated value, based on average selling price: $46,345. No word yet on whether Microsoft's Laptop Hunters have alibis

The Canadian Private Copying Collective is pushing for the implementation of an iPod fee in Canada to compensate them for 'losses' when people copy music to their digital music players. They have collected a fee from every CDR sold in Canada since 1997 and now want to extend that to digital music players. From the article: 'Some have argued that once they buy a CD they shouldn't have to pay again and again to listen to those songs — which they already purchased — on a personal compilation CD or on their MP3 player. But for people like Milman and Basskin, it's about recognizing the value of those works. "There has to be some sort of way to compensate the artist for the hours and the sweat and the blood and the tears and the extreme, extreme expense that goes into making music," Milman said

We've seen plenty of odd Android permutations, but UMEC seems to be striving to do something all its own. It's showing two devices it currently has in the works, one is a videophone / hub / DECT phone / etc. unit (pictured), which might be at home on a countertop, while the other is a brightly hued MID, with similar internal specs but more portable aims. Both are running ARM Cortex A8 processors (like the iPhone 3GS), though there's some significant OS optimization to be done: everything was incredibly sluggish on the videophone, and the MID was locked up at the time we dropped by. UMEC also doesn't have the touchscreen drivers working for either device, though the good news is that they're looking at both capacitive and resistive touchscreens, based on what the reseller that picks these up desires. Luckily, the videophone has USB plugs galore (along with plenty of Ethernet jacks) so we were able to get a quick demo of the device using a mouse and keyboard. The MID also has a full-size USB plug, and both devices sport HDMI out, so the end usage for both of these is really up in the air. Check 'em out on video after the break.

Marco Tempest] has developed some software called MultiVid that allows synchronized video across multiple iPhone or iPod Touch devices. For this to work, all of the devices must be connected to the same WiFi network. Playback can be controlled from any one of the iPhones/iPod Touches or from the Mac running the controller software. There is of course the option of connecting to larger monitors through a video output cable. The app also supports OSC. We’ve embedded the example video as well as a video detailing the software setup after the break.
The client software is available at the apps store and controller software can be downloaded from [Marco's] website. Both are free which is our favorite price point.
