iuerg87yerg879e0rg9erugjer Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 if you ponder over the airplay page on the apple site, you will see typical image showing off the action but take a closer look at the ipod touch. Possible 3G enabled iPod touch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djdanster Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 I can't see that image on the Apple website so I could not find similar images. To be honest that looks very much like the iPhone 4, although there is no way to tell as the left hand is covering up the main features such as the camera, speaker and various sensors.

Biohead Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 The fact it has signal bars too. And the break in the antenna band - above the home button in this photos orientation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iuerg87yerg879e0rg9erugjer Posted August 26, 2011 Author Share Posted August 26, 2011 true, but look at how thin the device is, doubt that is just an iphone 4, and even though the left hand is covering it, you should be able to see the front speaker (slightly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mohitster Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Can be a bad photoshop (has happened before!) but I would love to have one if it is true!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Star Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Might be a bad photoshop job or the new iPhone also? FMH 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iuerg87yerg879e0rg9erugjer Posted August 26, 2011 Author Share Posted August 26, 2011 could be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digitalx Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 ipod touch with 3G ... that's called an iphone. But the above image is just a generic looking render/photoshop of the front so it could either devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpus Veteran Posted August 26, 2011 Veteran Share Posted August 26, 2011 And the break in the antenna band - above the home button in this photos orientation. If this was an iPod Touch with 3G you would think they wouldn't make the same mistake with the design Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrislewis85 Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 It's a bad photoshop to make it look like an iPhone 4. The same image is used on both the iPhone 4/Features/AirPlay page and the iPod touch/Features/AirPlay page but on the iPhone page they have 'shopped in an antenna break. OP is right, the device looks way to thin. Break: http://www.apple.com/iphone/features/airplay.html No break: http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/features/airplay.html Lazy web designers!

d4diesel Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 those pictures are always photoshopped. they take separate pictures and superimpose the movie screenshot plus other features. someone lazy enough didnt bother to notice that this is an ipod touch and not an iphone and added the bars. simple as that. as someone pointed out already. ipod with 3G is called iphone.

instant.human Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 says ipod on it, but it doesnt look any different than my old ipod touch 2gen, so i dont understand the point of this topic. Well, then you have a very special iPod Touch 2nd gen... Does yours have signal bars too? And the break? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apple also make a WiFi-only iPad, just like...the iPod touch! 3G in an iPod touch makes no sense. It gets to the point where the differences between the products become too small. If anything, I can see the iPod touch disappearing in favour of a cheaper iPhone model (much like the system now where the previous generation is still available from Apple at a cut price).

Digitalx Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 that could be the case but you can get 3g enabled ipads Yes, because it's a data orientated device and by all means your able to make calls on the ipad, it's a completely different device and form factor but it's not of practical size to be used held up to the head for calling as you can see here: The ipod touch on the other hand has everything the iphone has same form factor hardware screen etc and only lacks the cellular modem and related processing chips. Adding them would be like selling an iphone without an ear piece... why would they be dumb enough to bleed products into each others markets like that ? One's a phone, ones a portable media player and mobile internet device. It's more likely to stay that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
