Ugh. More iPod shenanigans. Apparently crooked screens, washed out colors, lack of Bluetooth, disabled Linux compatibility, and a fubar calendar (to name a few) wasn’t enough. If you’ve gotten your hands on a Touch try this out: lock it and then enter the wrong password. Lo’ and and behold your little media player has transformed into a phone. Or not.
Update:
Alright Apple this is getting on my nerves. The iPod Touch also thinks that it is/has a camera. When plugged into a Windows or Mac machine this is the result:
Ah, cutting corners a bit too much it seems! . . . It really wasn’t a great move to release a product that would invite so much comparison to its better equipped older brother. Definitely a product mis-step on Apple’s part. (And apparently one of many with this *touchy* little device.)
Its a first gen Apple product, what do you expect. I will wait for a 2nd gen iPod Touch or iPhone before I go purchasing one.
Liam, We expect more than 15 minutes of thought to be put into an expensive 1st gen product. Not shameless pimping.
But then maybe you are right, maybe Apple could have a new slogan of ” Our second gen devices don’t suck!, Really…we promise”
