Cameras in iPods? »

Wired asks: “If Apple puts a camera in every iPod (the dying Classic and the tiny Shuffle excepted), will it kill the compact camera industry? The answer might actually be yes.”

The article goes on to ask: “The point is that Apple can put an easy to use — no, fun to use — camera in the pocket of everyone under 40, a camera that is effectively free and will automatically sync all pictures back to the mothership via iTunes every time it is charged. Now. Imagine you are in the compact digicam market. Should you be worried?”

I’m definitely intrigued and think this is something we will be seeing in your friendly neighborhood Apple store very soon.
