Anyway, the iPod Touch is a damn freaking advanced piece of technology. Right now I only have access to half of it's potential coz: I can't install apps. Apple has an update that improves the iTouch and enables apps to be installed BUT for a fee of about USD 15 -.- . What really pisses me off is that iPod Touchs produced after 1st July comes with that update with the same Apple price, a few days after I bought mine ><"""". I have the option of hacking the iTouch but it might damage the iPod and might void the warranty. After hacking u can install lots of apps and I heard that u can install a GBA emulator in the iPod. Imagine playing GBA games on the iPod :P . Instead of installing apps, the iTouch uses web apps which is basically browser based applications which requires wifi most of the time which is a bad thing. Some however, such as a web app that I'm using that enables me to read eBooks on the go, requires you to upload the file before you can access it offline(all you have to do is load it online in your browser before you go offline).
What really like bout the iPod is it's touch screen. It's damn nice. Other touch screen devices require a stylus to be accurate, but the iTouch doesn't. I think it detects the heat distribution or smth like that. So far battery life lasts quite long for me. Maybe that's coz I switch off wifi whenever I'm not using it. However, when using wifi the battery drains fast. Another thing is that it can display any website(unlike my cacated psp browser :P) except those which require flash. There are rumors that Adobe is going to write a Flash player specifically for the iTouch and iPhone without Steve Jobs approval. They approached him b4 but he refused for unknown reasons.
Right, I'm going to bed. Going to work at 11am today ><"""""""
