iPod Touch Model Information

Black iPod Touch - Want one? Take a trip over to our Pink iPod Shop!

The iPod touch is a portable media player and Wi-Fi mobile platform designed and marketed by Apple Inc. The product was launched on September 5, 2007 through an event called The Beat Goes On. The iPod touch adds the graphical user interfaces Cover Flow and Multi-Touch to the iPod line and is available with 8, 16 or 32 GB of flash memory. It includes Apple's Safari web browser and is the first iPod enabling wireless access to the iTunes Store. Beginning in June, the iPod touch will also have access to the App Store.

The iPod touch currently comes only in black cases, but who knows, perhaps the next generations will come in different colors. However, if you are interested in owning a pink iPod Touch, buying an extra pink skin or cover might do the trick! Have a look at the skins in our Pink iPod Shop.

The iPod touch has the iPhone's multi-touch interface, with a physical home button off the touch screen. The home screen has a list of buttons for the available applications which include Music, Videos, Photos, iTunes, Safari, YouTube, Mail, Maps and Widgets. Software upgrades sold by Apple expand the iPod touch's functionality by adding more features.

The iPod touch is equipped with Wi-Fi 802.11b/g, and, like the iPhone, includes the Safari browser and a viewing client for YouTube. The device's Wi-Fi capabilities can also be used to buy music from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store. Like the iPhone, the iPod touch does not support the 802.1X authentication method, making connectivity to some business, college/university, personal, and hospital networks impossible. The iPod touch 2.0 Software Update will reportedly support 802.1X authentication.
