1) Web browsing: Prone to loss of JS data entered into the page if you navigate to another part of the OS 2) No IM client if you are not running the IM client ( you go offline as soon as you do anything else ) 3) VoIP.... still no VoIP client and even if there was you could not receive a call on the go if you were not running the VoIP client. |

I thought there were VOIP clients? Well I guess worse comes to worse you could always jailbreak it. Quote:
@BoxOfSnoo Yeah, that would never happen sadly. iTunes works because Apple has control from the software to the hardware (iPods and what not). |

Very true that it isnt as popular in alot of countries, but if you look at hte ratio of people with pmps (ipods, cells, or otherwise) to people whose pmps are ipods, its alot closer than any other compeditor alot of countries dont use the ipod as much but there are not nearly as many people in those countries with them as in the US, UK and other "first" worlds |

Re: iPod Let's Rock Event - UPdates to nano and touch
The iPod Touch has the hardware for bluetooth, but unfortunately not the software. It's probably being used to support the Nike+ integration.
If you pair it with a phone and a GPS receiver I would get it. |

Re: iPod Let's Rock Event - UPdates to nano and touch
hmm, now thats a interesting development.
question is, will apple make use of it... if they give the touch the ability to use AD2P and possibly tethering, it may well cut into the sale of iphones... |
Re: iPod Let's Rock Event - UPdates to nano and touch
Is it bluetooth? I read it as part of Nike's special chipset (they have a 2.4 Ghz signal that's similar to bluetooth but not actually bluetooth).

Ah ok, so to get BT support, Apple would have to add it to their firmware.

Best hope in that line probably lies with iPhone Linux. But I wouldn't hold my breath.

Re: iPod Let's Rock Event - UPdates to nano and touch
Another bad thing about the iTouch is no file system. Apparently, you cannot store any files on it, such as pdf files or use space as a usb flash drive. That certainly does limit a lot of usefulness of the device.

You can opt to use it as a flash drive thro iTunes like other iPods plus manually add or manage your stuff on it. Also if you have attachments included with emails like MS Word documents the Touch will open them no problem. |
Re: iPod Let's Rock Event - UPdates to nano and touch
but can you access items stored on the ipod from say third party apps?

Re: iPod Let's Rock Event - UPdates to nano and touch
Well, I don't have an iTouch so I haven't tried it myself but my friend's son has one and that is what he told me in the context of discussing my n800 and the iTouch. I was talking to him about how I've stored a lot of pdf files and such that I can load and view as I need them. He told me that you could not do that on the iTouch.
If someone wishes to send me and iTouch to review and keep, I'll straighten you all out :) |

Re: iPod Let's Rock Event - UPdates to nano and touch
Well, my friend just gave me an iTouch (last version though). So I'll investigate a bit. No internal speaker, no mic but hey!
bof, hope you get yours now |
Re: iPod Let's Rock Event - UPdates to nano and touch
You CANNOT use the iTouch as a mass storage device like other iPods.
BUT there is an app called Air Sharing that lets you mount the iTouch as a network volume to add stuff. From that I successfully put some pdf files on it and accessed them without problem. |
