My gf got me an iPod touch for my b day and I'm just playin around with it. I didn't even know these things could connect to the Internet. It's like an iPhone minus the phone.

I absolutely love mine, you can still use it to send text messages with a SMS application download, however you must be in a WIFI area to utilize it...I think its called textplus. You would be able to use it as a phone with the skype app however the touch lacks a microphone once again has to be in WIFI

Yeah, it is a really cool device. It is way more than I expected.
I was just expecting a touch-screen MP3 player, but I got an iPhone minus the phone and camera.
My favorite thing about it is being able to use Pandora radio (in WIFI zone).

Ha damn those things got fancy. I have one from probably 4 years ago, actually maybe more (or less) I have little idea when I bought it. It looks like a brick though and is black and white.

Apparently you can make phone calls with it if you have a headset with a mic and the 'Fring' ap.

Yeah if I had a Touch i'd jailbreak it immediately. I've got a 3G and I don't know what i'd do without it, internet-wise. Awesome lil' device.

It allows you to install all of the apps from the store for free..And allows you to do a ton more things.
Do a quick google on it and you'll see.
I can point you in the direction on how to do it if you choose to.

they are indeed lots of fun, you can sync it with your computer by midi threw wifi. you can use it as a midi touch x/y controller, there's so much you can do with it. You can download VoIP app's and free SMS app's, so its basically a phone aslong as you have wifi, once cheap mifi comes around i wont ever have a phone again and Ill just use my ipod. One day the words mp3 player and phone are going to dissappear, and we'll just have these handheld devices that do most things.
Beatmaker is an awesome app.

nah, im willing to pay 1$ for an app, most apps you pay for are well worth it, I've broken my ipod tho, its worth doing you can always put it back. I just like some of the apps you pay for. Beatmaker for example is 20$ but its a gnarly app.

It is possible to brick your ipod but if done correctly and the proper steps are taken it won't happen.
Apparently the new ipods have bluetooth on them if you jailbreak them too.

If there is a possiblity to fuck it up I don't think I'm gonna try it. At least not now while it's new, maybe a couple months later.
Like snoot said, I'm willing to pay $1 for an app.
I won't be paying $20 for that beatmaker app though. I'll have to wait untill I jailbreak it for that one...

all ipod's have bluetooth except the first gen one, its always been on there and wont work unless you upgrade to 3.0 which is 10$ lol. I hate how companies do that now, like how some video games come with the Multiplayer ability on it, but you cant use it till a couple months later when you have to buy it for 20$. So lame, just a desperate attempt to squeeze consumers' for every penny.
However the bluetooth on the ipod is cool, you can tether it to a phone so you can use the internet from your phone on your ipod.
