Apple Reinvents Cool All Over Again with the iPod Touch...

Apple unveiled the latest update to their hit digital
music player and it's called
iPod Touch
and it's gorgeous as it's a slightly smaller version
of the iPhone so it contains features first seen in
Apple's hit cellular phone, the iPhone. One of the
coolest features, in my opinion is finally has WI-FI
which allow you to purchase via WIWI-FI from Apple's
new WI-FI iTunes music store directly to your
iPod Touch.
I've been waiting for WI-FI to come to the
iPod Touch
and it's pretty cool now that it's here plus the deal
with Starbucks is brilliant for Apple and Starbucks.
When you enter a Starbucks with WI-FI your iPod sees
the network and you're allowed onto the network at no
charge (in other words, no fees to T-mobile to access
the WI-FI hotspot). This is of course to facilitate
the ability of visitors to purchase music they're
hearing in Starbucks in that very moment; purchase it
via the Wi-Fi iTunes store as they sell Starbucks
music already. Cool beans. The new
iPod Touch
comes in 8GB and 16GB models beginning at
$299.00.
As I learn more I'll update this post and include a
full review once I've used it. Check out the
video demo.

iPod Touch.
So cool, so Apple.
