I think I must have refreshed engadget like hundred times because these guys are there live at the Apple’s “The Beat Goes On” conference. I’ve been waiting and waiting for Steve to introduce the anticipating new iPod Touch and he did, about 2 hours after introducing some new iPod Nanos, iPod Videos, etc.
iPod Touch
By the look of it, it’s like iPhone, just slimmer. It’s basically an inheritance of iPhone except the phone/text function. It’s got all the touch flipping, images viewing we’ve seen in iPhone. Here’s more inside iPod Touch:
- Multi-touch user screen
- WiFi supported
- Safari Browser
- Google and Yahoo Search
- Direct songs download
- Youtube
- Calendar
- Clock
iPod Touch comes in 2 different prices, 8GB/$299 and 16GB/$399. Battery life last like 22 hours on music or 5 hours on videos. And unlike iPhone, it is shipping worldwide. Both will be shipping this month. If you are still waiting for the arrival of iPhone, this new iPod might just quench your thirst.

Jimmy: in fact it will. It is already available to be purchase in local apple website. iPhone is not in Asia yet, Apple plans to ship in only next year. Nothing to do with telcos :-)

Only pre-orders….. touch coming to retail end sep

I’v heard that touch is already available in Low Yat, but I’m not sure the validity of the fact.
Besides waiting for next year, the next big iPhone hurdle is the Europe release with 3G enabled iPhones. I hope this will be true cos if I’m going to spend all that money next year for an iPhone it better be 3G enabled.

I don’t think it’s available yet, officials Apple is only shipping by the end of this month. Since its really near the launch date, I suggest you wait, rather than risking your money on it.
Also one of my friend call up the Singapore Apple, they too said it will only be available end of the month. It’s only pre-order now.

Don’t buy from JERRY SMITH, he won’t send you anything after you had transfer your money to him. Trust me, I been paying him my 1 month salary USD800 but I get nothing… :(

Jerry Smith and Celebrity Mobile Stores is a complete scam who will steal your money. He will pretend extra units have been packed by mistake and want you to pay for them. He will never send you anything. Stay clear of this evil man.
