Each site has heard that bad camera modules will push back the anticipated early September release date for Apple's new iPods to a later time. Hardmac seems to believe that the problems are related exclusively to the new iPod touch. AppleInsider references the iPod line a bit more vaguely.

So while we'll most probably see new iPods tomorrow, it could be a while before anyone can actually buy them. But whether that means late September or sometime in October, no one really specifies. [AppleInsider and Hardmac and Image]
