A Nonny Moose Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 A lot of us know and remember our Newtons. I for one got one secondhand and it was WONDERFUL (aside from the batteries never lasting terribly long). Now Apple releases the iPod touch for those of you that don't want the phone part. I'll admit it's still tempting to get a Newton, but the iNewt here seems to be a perfectly good replacement. Here were the features of the Newton: Address Book Calculator Writing recognition Clock MP 2000 and up can even get a music player and surf the web. And now the iPod touch: Address Book Calendar Music player web surfing clock movie player photo viewer Is the iPod really a Newton in disguise? Should it get handwriting recognition (Ink)? And the biggest question: WHERE IS THE STYLUS????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R2k. Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 i think that you don`t get stylus with touchPod. everything is ready for fingers,well that`s how it seems ... you should get touchPod for sure,i mean it`s newer and better thing than newton. ~R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sticky_bit Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Does the name iPod touch not suggest that you "touch" this device? (with your fingers) Stylus? Thats so 1998! Come on now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbz Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 I prefer the touching to the writing, personally. That stylus just seems so useless when I can use my built-in touching device. (whuh?!?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
