No camera. I am certain I saw reviews of the IPod voice over before the 4th
gen came out. I bought the Sonos system in November 2009, and I remember
talking to folks who were using their Touch to control the Sonos, and they
were using the screen reader. Until recently, I thought this was an app you
downloaded, but when I started looking into this more carefully, it looks
like it is supposed to be an inherent part of the OS. I found specific
references on the Apple site to voice over on the 3rd Gen.

From what I can tell voice over is only on iPods with cameras, I bet yours
doesn't have a camera, does it?
