Rumours circulating today suggest that just days before Apple’s September 9th media event the brand new line of iPods with built-in cameras could be delayed due to technical issues.

Both AppleInsider and HardMac have independently reported that Apple has suffered bad parts related to the camera modules potentially delaying the release of the new iPods. It is unknown whether Apple will still announce the product and simply delay the retail release.

Apple’s “Only rock and roll” media event is on Wednesday September 9th.
