Ayanami Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 There doesn't seem to be one on the iPod Touch ads, yet, if it gets Wi-Fi, and has Safari, shouldn't we theoretically be able to have the same email program as the iPhone? Pretty sure that's one of the standout features that will be part of my decision to get one or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scj312 Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 You get more than what you do with, say, the iPod classic. I wouldn't be complaining. However, since almost all emails have available webmail, I wouldn't think it would really be an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayanami Posted September 10, 2007 Author Share Posted September 10, 2007 True...but I really like having all my email in one location. Maybe we'll see it when it actually is released.... Or maybe I'll just get a refurb iPhone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmab2k6 Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 i'll seccond that , could do with the mail app , wud be usefull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowerPPC2289 Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 I read on another board that the exact same apps can be installed on both touch and iphone so theoretically, mail as well as the other missing apps like notes etc. should be able to be installed. Hope its for real anyway, mail would be cool. In my opinion apple should have included mail etc. Im mean whats the point of internet and no mail etc. Why implement PDA like functionality and not go the whole way. Probably just to boost itunes sales from the wifi store im presuming. I think theres a good posibility that apple are to update with more apps in the future anyway, just look at all the empty space waiting to be used on the home screen. Edit: Just had a thought, im presuming that emails received on the iphone are synced back over when it is docked, since the touch is not meant to have emails, im presuming this wouldnt work.

Fossie Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Same hardware(ish) + same os should make it quite simple for someone to add the email app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rollcage Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Along with email, I'd like to see a full fledged calendar app, with the ability to actually add appointments, or at least to-dos. iChat would be amazing on both the iPhone and iPod Touch, but there are already quite a few web apps that do a good job.

davegarbs Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Done ! on hacktheipodtouch.com It's been proven that this doesn't work. This is just the method for the iPhone that somebody assumed would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbz Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 well, the fact that they are so similar means that this method probably does work. As for the email, get a gmail account and pull in all your pop emails (even from multiple addresses. Then, you can send and recieve mail from many accounts all from one interface. Furthermore, you can add this new gmail account to your mail client the number of times that you have seperate emails, and send and recieve mail locally without ever having to worry about outgoing email servers! Works flawlessly for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an MP3 player. It's got lots of storage and I really like it. What I want is the internet capabilities. I have a $2000 MacBook Pro. I don't want to carry that everywhere I go. Now what happens when I'm standing around @ school, and I don't want to whip out my lappy? Boom! I pull out my PDA. That has internet, mail, calender, music player.... Get the idea?

R2k. Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 ok people i`ve made a mistake. touchPod is more than an mp3/mp4 player. that is multimedial device,but you talk about that mail app,like none of you don`t use web mail... i mean what`s the point,does it work or no(mail app),it`s really doesn`t matter to me ... ~R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayanami Posted September 21, 2007 Author Share Posted September 21, 2007 Yeah, but I just went and set up my Gmail accounts to work with my Apple Mail app... I don't want to have to reconfigure that. =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realfolkblues Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 it's untested if the iphone apps will run on the ipod touch because they cant decrypt the touch yet. Once they get that going then it may work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
