Ah, would you examine that. Earlier this year there have been rumors about Apple ditching the physical home button on upcoming iOS devices, and we have what seems to be a brand new iPod touch prototype matching such description, courtesy of CrunchGear via Mr. Blurrycam. In response to its About screen, this “DVT-1″ (a late milestone ) device packs 128GB of memory — twice up to the most important available capacity option immediately (do not forget that 64GB iPhone 4 prototype in Hong Kong?) — in addition to a model number “MC550LL” which isn’t far flung from those of the fourth-gen iPod touches (“MC54xLL”), though this similarity doesn’t help prove its authenticity or indicate whether it’ll make it to the market. Still, if Apple does go ahead with this grubby device or no less than its capacitive home button, we would see new gesture controls for the bezel area below the screen à la webOS , as suggested by an earlier patent . But hey, let’s not take this too seriously for now — all this will become only a much belated April Fools’ prank, right?
