THinking about getting some for gifts..How is internet access on them? If you are in a major area like NYC would you have access equal or close to equal as the iPhone?

 

it just has Wifi, no?

 

Gee, can't believe a Circuit City salesman got this wrong...I was driving past one and stopped in to get a car charger for the iPhone...Salesman sold me one for the iPod, assured me it would work..bought it, went to the car and of course, it didn't work..

They had a display with two live iTouches, both not working...but of course the ever present alarm system was emmiting loud screeches every few seconds..

The salesman told me the iTouch is 3G compatible..

What a joke..

 

thats the only difference between an iphone and a touch no?

 

iPod Touch has wifi only, no cellular (3g) coverage. That's an iPhone.

 

Is the iTouch and iPhone identical in it's capabilities for games, etc.? Other than connectivity?

Seems like an amazing device in it's own right..

 

Yes, identical besides the fact that the iPhone has a cellular antenna built in with integrated sim card slot. Hence the larger size.

 

Yea, wife has an iphone and i have an ipod touch -- which my son has pretty much taken over. Wife is constantly putting apps on it. So basically an Ipod Touch is a Iphone minus the phone. (Also ipod touch has no camera)

 

Daughter has one...seems to like it. If she could now keep it clean that would make me happy. But Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!
