can all-timers in LYN xplain me this things?

er, not sure what you wanna ask there? 2.2.1 means ur iPod is on firmware 2.2.1, if it's jailbroken then you can modify ur iPod abit like change the theme, wallpaper and install some third party software in cydia.

English forum boss, better use English coz BM slang is very confusing. When you bought it, only certain apps will b given. Others you will hv to buy it (paid apps) or get free apss in itunes app store.

if buy at UK will be cheaper???

btw now can jailbreak ipod toiuch 3rd gen d right?

aft jailbreak also got warranty?
*
Price won't differ much I reckon. Unless you wait for the student promo then price might b cheaper. Can tethered JB only for the time being if I'm not mistaken, go visit the iPod/iPhone JB thread for more infos. Yup, the warranty will still b intact as long as you restore ur iPod to factory setting before sending it back for warranty claim.

You bet. It's called USB wall charger, go look for it. If you've got extra money, go grab Apple original wall charger, around RM150 for one. China one ~Rm15 xD

The main diff btw 2nd and 3rd gen of iPod touch will b the processing speed, 3rd gen with faster processor. 3rd gen also comes with Earphones with Remote and Mic which 2nd gen doesn't. Yup, iPod touch apps are pretty much the same as iPhone one.

hey guys! I'm interested in the ipod touch.. But there r few things I need to find out 1st, hope you guys can help! =)

1. Does the latest iPod Touch 3G (8GB, 32GB, 64GB) support Flash in the browser? the OS is 3.1 isit?

2. I heard iPod Touch has issues with multi-tasking. How true is that?

3. With RM400 difference between the 8Gb and 32Gb models, does the 8GB model lack much from the 32GB (apart from storage space)?

4. I heard the processor in 8GB is different from 32 and 64GB. Is it much slower/Will I have issues using apps???

Appreciate ur response guys! cheers.... smile.gif
*
1. Unfortunately no.
2. Little laggy if you switch on too many apps, yet, it's still the fastest among the gadgets available in the market I guess.
3. 8Gb is not 3rd gen iPod touch actually, it's 2nd gen 8gb with upgraded firmware(3.1.3)
4. Refer 3. Processing speed is 8xxMhz vs 5xxMhz.

Thanks vicdd, franklooi96, and chinwooi... Very helpful info!  notworthy.gif

The lack of openGL support is truly a letdown for the 8GB model..... And processor difference of 5xx and 8xx Mhz is just TOO MUCH to miss out...
I guess I am now inclined to 32GB more.. If only $$$ wasn't an issue >< !! sad.gif

With response to chingwooi's post,

1. So is there any way to get around the lack of Flash? Like an alternative browser available, or like any trick to make Flash usable when browsing?

2. I mean does the Touch provide a function like Alt-Tab (on PC), or press-and-hold the Symbian button (on Nokia S60), to switch between open applications with a choice to kill them too? Cuz if I'm not wrong, pressing the Home button kills your current open apps right?

3. Additional Q: iPod Touch has no built-in mic and loud-speaker, correct?
*
1. Don't quite understand the question. Browser>safari? xD
2. In iPod touch, you can listen to music while checking mail, browse thru safari or even play games, not sure whether this is the multi-tasking u r looking for. Certain apps like mail and iPod(player), it's kinda minimize instead of closing off, so the next time you click on it, it will load faster. Others, it will close off completely I guess.
3. It does has a built-in mic and speaker, the speaker is not LOUD tho sweat.gif

1. As in are there 3rd party browsers for Touch which supports Flash? Oh I also heard an Opera Mini for Touch is coming up... wonder if that solves it........

2. Thanks.. I also recently happen to read up some stuff that there are apps out there (for jailbroken Touchs) which can provide proper multi-tasking capabilities... like showing open apps in a row of cards, with a close-application function.
3. Wow... so pathetic??? Then I can't use stuff like Skype, or rec voice, or use mic apps without the headphone..... What's up with Apple anyway? such a setback..... integrating a mic shud be easier than integrating multi-touch aye.. ^^
*
1. Not sure on this boss.

2. Yea, that would be SB setting or Supreme setting.

3. May be it's not as easier as it seems to be? Coz the touch is already so slim, it's hard to integrate everything into this small gadget, looks the touch 3rd gen is supposed to hv integrated camera, but in the end it doesn't.

Btw... I heard somewhere that Apple actually 'refreshes' (introduce new model) their ipod/iphone series every September (or was it November) or something like that. How true is that??? Anyone?

Yes, that's pretty true, Apple do refresh their iPod products every year, which falls on Sept.

guys.. can i use ipod 1st gen casing with 2nd gen ipod touch? the thickness is different right? will it fit nicely?

Silicone casing would b able to fit in. Hard case is definitely NO. However, it's not recommended to use 1st gen silicone casing on 2nd gen coz there's no volume button beside.

i think you can get a better idea on how to set up a wireless router at Networking section xD Anyway, go grab a wireless router first, yes, you need a wireless router, inside the box there's an installation guide and a disc, insert the disc and follow step by step you should b able to set up a wireless connection smoothly. The router would prob cost around RM100-200 depends on the brand. It's PC>Modem(phone line here)>Router. Once you set up the wireless connection, ur ipod should b able to detect it, key in the password you hv entered for ur wireless router and it's all done.

according to http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipods.html
"Charge Cycles
A properly maintained iPod battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original capacity at 400 full charge and discharge cycles. You may choose to replace your battery when it no longer holds sufficient charge to meet your needs."
does this mean after 400 full charge and discharge cycle, i need to change the battery?
if i frequently use it and charge it every 2 day, does this mean after 800 days, i need to replace?
and if i everyday use and it charge everyday, does it will destroy my ipod?
and can we buy battery and change it ourself?

and latest firmware, can we jailbreak it?

last is that if i order, is that i need to wait around 1week for arrive at my home just like order macbook?

sry for asking if the question been ask many time, coz i want to plan it properly, thank you.
*
If after the cycle counts and ur batteries still can last for long enuf, then the answer is no. Change the batt urself will void the warranty no doubt. If the warranty is over then yup why not if you know how to, 1 charge count would be when you fully charged ur iPod and use until the batts runs out, if you charge ur batt twice a day but the batt is still 75% each time then it's not counted as one.

No if I'm not mistaken, only 3.1.2 firmware is possible.

Yup
