The famous site owned by AT&T has been customized to work with the iPhone/iPod Touch browsers right down to dialing a phone number link if you are using an iPhone. They were even kind enough to fix it up to work well with WAP browsers too.
You can search by location, category, or name and your results will net you a name, number, and directions. Like I said, if you are using an iPhone you can just click on the phone number and whammo, you are dialing and asking whatever it is you deem it necessary to know.

So let’s say you wanted to JailBreak your iPhone or iPod Touch over the past few weeks since the release of the first 1.1.1 JailBreak. It was a fairly lengthy process, and depending on when you got up the nerve to try it, required a decent chunk of time on the command line interface.
Well now its as easy as navigating, on a wifi connection, and in Safari, to jailbreakme.com and clicking “Install AppSnapp” at the bottom. That’s it, no PC required; it makes use of the TIFF exploit and then goes to work.

In a dream crushing reality check, it turns out the Apple Store slip up that led some to believe an 80 and 160GB iPod Touch might be coming has been quashed. It never fails, they always take away all our hopes.
The slip up came in the sales page of an iPod Touch case where it said the case fit the 80 and 160 gigabyte iPod Touch models. Clearly they meant to remove the zeros, their bad.

Sure, you and I just see it as a fun media player, but can it really be used for business? Sure, I mean, it has a WiFi connection with a better web browser than anything short of a full on UMPC or laptop, that’s a good start.
On top of that, there is a calendar, contacts, and you can now use the video out which means you can throw up pics, vids, or music relevant to a business presentation with ease. On top of that there is the clock and the calculator.

I was always told that money talks, and bullshit runs marathons, so its no surprise that when Vincent put up 10,000 credits for the forums-based points system that translates into money at the Apple-Touch store, there were people willing to risk bricking their iPod Touches just to jailbreak them. We are still expecting some more proof and hopefully a step by step guide of how they did it, but there are more than the standard Springboard apps on their Springboard, and the screens from both gentleman’s iPod Touches say iPod in the upper corner and lack the cellular icons.
Furthermore, we have video of one of the hacks. The forum member named Phoen!x was the first to complete the hack and post proof, followed shortly, as in 4 minutes later, by kewltechdude. Congratulations to both gentleman on hacking their iPod Touches.

So there have been rumors going around of Apple releasing a new PDA, or more specifically, a new version of the Newton. This rumored PDA would be based on the same design, multi-touch technology, and more or less platform of the iPhone and iPod Touch.
If this happens that would mean that Apple is going to be spreading their precious multi-touch technology around like its their manifest destiny. As such, one is led to speculate what could be next, like maybe a MacBook Touch.

The world is soon to be revolutionized by an all-new type of media player/ultra compact personal computer also known as the iPod Touch. This new device not only has up to 16GB of flash storage, but WiFi and the ability to do just about anything from within its web browser. As such the number of iPod Touch accessories will probably run rampant.
Apple is far less stingy about who makes accessories for their devices than most companies, which has led to some seriously weird accessories 
for previous iterations of the iPod. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing as most of those accessories did serve some sort of function. With the iPod Touch, the stylish device that it is, you can be sure that there will be tons of cases made, likely starting at the lower end with uber-generic cases that look like crap but cover the iPod Touch’s screen, then going up to more fashionable, and functional cases from the likes of Belkin. I suspect the iPod Touch will even be blessed with cases from such high end, quality product manufacturers as Prada, Fendi, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton.

This article is dedicated to telling you everything there is to know about the new iPod Touch so far. Lets start with the size, or lack thereof, of this thing. The iPod Touch will be 4.3×2.4 inches and only 8mm or .31 inches thick! It won’t weight you down either, not at 4.2 ounces.
Next, a list of what Apple says will be in the box. There will obviously be the iPod Touch, then it’s the basics for an iPod: the earphones, USB 2.0 cable, dock adapter, polishing cloth, and quick start guide They have also added something new, a stand.
The iPod Touch will come in 8 and 16 gigabyte capacities which means up to 1750 or 3500 songs and 10 or 20 thousand pictures, or if you are more of a video person you can fit 10 or 20 hours of video or any combination thereof.
