January Update In Ipod Touch 2.0 Firmware Upgrade

2008-07-10T21:43:00.003-05:00

According to Tuaw Ipod Touch 2.0 firmware upgrade will include January update for 5 apps that were included. I did not upgrade because friend that works at Apple told me that 2.0 will include and will be less cheaper , he was write but I did not believe until today when it was confirmed.

PS:He said that they are already working on the next release!!

Soon enough you will be able to download IPT 2.0 upgrade see here

Ipod Touch Upgrade from 1.1.4 to 2.0 Firmware

2008-07-10T16:23:00.004-05:00

Everyone is looking for 2.0 firmware upgrade for Ipod Touch 1.1.4 .It will cost you $10 but don't worry by tonight or "tomorrow" Cali. time we all will be able to upgrade. As of right now (Jul 10th 4:25PM CST) there is no update for Ipod Touch only Iphoner's can upgrade to 2.0.

I think Apple is totally unfair to Ipod Touch users.

First they f***ed us with January upgrade where you get 5 icons for $30. Then they offer Ipod Touch Upgrade 2.0 for $10 with over 135 free apps!, and not to forget your January update will be deleted (as far as I heard).

But that's not all!! Iphone'rs get update Today but Ipod Touche'rs have to wait until tomorrow! WTF?

Yes, I can wait another day for this update, but from the business prospective Apple really knows how to pull nerves on people like me.

UPDATE: If you download iTunes 7.7 from Apple.com yes you will see all nice free apps but guess what ? They all say "You need Ipod Touch 2.0 Firmware" well where is it?

Update Your Ipod Touch and get iTunes 7.7 App Store

2008-07-10T09:22:00.003-05:00

Apple just released new version of iTunes which will allow you to see all the goodies for Ipod Touch Upgrade. I tried to upgrade iTunes via Help, but that will now work so go to Apple.com click on iTunes, download 57MB file and upgrade it that way.

Let me know if you got any more info in comments area.

Google Talk (GTalk) on Ipod Touch

2008-07-08T07:27:00.003-05:00

Google managed to change Gtalk (Google Talk) browser functionality for Iphone and Ipod Touch. Now when you use chat and go to different browser it will mark your status as "unavailable" or "busy" . I must say that Gtalk improvement looks better and it's easier to chat with somebody.

Ipod Touch Wifi Troubleshooting via Email

2008-07-08T07:14:00.003-05:00

Since January of this year I have received 294 emails regarding Wifi problems that multiple ipod touch users had. From 294 emails I managed to fix 233 ipod touch devices and 19 was faulty and needed to be returned.

Other 42 Ipod Touch either did not get any responses back after I sent them an email or just couldn't get it to work.

Most problems occurred:

Wrong password Input (Admin password vs. Wep Key)
64Bit Encrytion vs 128Bit encryption
Did not Release/Renew to obtain new IP
Did not restart modem/router to acknowledge Ipod Touch

Some other problems:

Email did not work
Sync with iTunes
Safari constantly crashing
Jailbreak was not installed correctly

2008-05-13T07:37:00.003-05:00

We thought Ipod Touch is very cool when it first came out, you can listen to music , its touch based and you can do a lot of other things. What about if your Ipod Touch would be Gaming Console ?

Check this picture I found at Reg Hardware

I would so love to have Ipod Touch for playing mini games without jailbreaking it.

Could WWDC 2008 see launch of dedicated Apple handheld gaming console?
