Why do peole buy P&S cameras? Switch the device on - can take a picture. Startup times are counted in specs!
Then optical zoom is a selling point, sometimes even exchangable batteries and flash. Waterproof cameras seem to sell a bit. None of these features apply to the iPod touch. The iPod does not even have a shutter button.
Statements to position the iPod touch as a "cheap" camera have nothing to do with reality. The author should not confuse the iPod camera with the iPhone 5s camera.
