iPod Touch - A Social Device ?


Is the iPod Touch being marketed as a social device ? With new and increasing ways of communicating with friends through this device its almost equivalent to a phone. In fact if it weren't for the lack of 3G, it could have been used as a phone. And not just any ordinary phone. An advanced touchscreen phone with internet capability and hundreds of thousands of applications and games to choose from. iMessage for messaging services. Skype and Facetime for calling ( video or audio calls ), Game centre for playing games and sharing scores with your friends, Camera for taking and sharing photos and Facebook, twitter and other social networking applications are also quite easily available ( generally as free apps ). Its possible that this is, intentionally or unintentionally, Apple's new method for marketing the Device. And its working. 

iPod Touch - Black and White

iPod Touch - Now available in Black and White


On the 4th of October - iPhone 4S event, Apple also announced the release of a new iPod Touch with 2 color options - Black or White. With 2 cameras, HD video recording, Retina Display, Facetime, iCloud, iOS 5 ( including iMessage ) as well as the hundreds of thousands of applications and games designed for it, the most popular iPod is likely to become even more popular. Although it hasn't changed much, the vast array of capabilities of the brilliantly designed and cheaply priced iPod make it an attractive option. Starts at $199 for the 8GB model and a $100 increment for 32 and 64 GB models each.

What they missed out on


3G capability - People love the 3G capability of the iPad and iPhone. Using the internet while on the go is a very attractive and time-saving feature. Although it may not have had much use in the iPod Touch previously, with the coming of iMessage and the increasing use of facetime, 3G capability is almost a necessity in the device.
