iPod Touch 5 Leaked Images Show More Memory and No Physical Home Button

A number of very convincing which reportedly engineering prototypes of iPod 5's have been posted on various blogs. While at a quick glance there doesn't seem to be much difference between this 5th generation iPod and the current iPod 4, a closer inspection reveals a few surprises!

The biggest surprise is that the images shown here seem to show an iPod Touch 5 prototype with a capacitive home button rather than a physical one. This could mean that the whole lower part of the Touch 5 could be an extra multi-touch area supporting the main touch screen.

The second surprise is the huge jump in storage. Current iPod Touch storage max's out at 64Gb but the model shown here has a whopping 128GB!

Other details were also leaked showing the back of the device to be alloy, the iOS version as 4.2.1 and the serial number as being MC550LL.
