See friends while you talk to them with FaceTime. Shoot, edit, and
share stunning HD video. Play games against friends, or unknown foes,
with the new Game Center. And do it all on the Retina display--the
highest-resolution screen on any mobile device. It makes graphics and
text look even more amazing. The new iPod touch. It's state-of-the-art
fun. Introducing the new iPod touch. Now with FaceTime, Retina display, HD video recording, and Game Center. Click to enlarge. | Advanced engineering at play. Pioneering
technology built into iPod touch is how you're able to flick, tap, and
pinch. It's what makes a racing game feel so real. It's why you're able
to see a friend crack up at your jokes from across the globe. And it's
the reason iPod touch is the most incredible iPod you'll ever own. Looks can be amazing.
iPod touch has an all-new design that makes it the thinnest, lightest,
most amazing iPod touch ever. Holding one is all the proof you need.
With its curved design, iPod touch is now a mere 7.2 millimeters thin.
Its engineered-glass front and stainless steel back feel sleek and
smooth in your hand. Turn it on, and you're instantly blown away by the
brilliant Retina display. iPod touch is the perfect combination of
stunning design and revolutionary technology--brilliant from the outside
in. Retina display. A blast from the future.
There are lots of reasons you won't want to take your eyes off the new
iPod touch. The 960-by-640 backlit LCD display, for one. It packs 326
pixels per inch, making it the highest-resolution iPod screen ever. To
achieve this, Apple engineers developed pixels so small--a mere 78
micrometers across--that the human eye can't distinguish individual
pixels. Even though you can't see them, you'll definitely notice the
difference. Text is remarkably sharp, and graphics are incredibly vivid. Apple A4 processor. More power to you.
The Apple A4 chip is behind, or rather underneath, all the fun you can
have on iPod touch. Apple engineers designed the A4 chip to be a
remarkably powerful yet remarkably power-efficient mobile processor.
With it, iPod touch can easily perform complex jobs such as
multitasking, editing video, and placing FaceTime calls. All while
maximizing battery life. And fun. Gyro + Accelerometer. Smooth moves.
iPod touch just learned some new moves. It now includes a built-in
three-axis gyroscope. When paired with the accelerometer, the gyro makes
iPod touch capable of advanced motion sensing such as user
acceleration, full 3D attitude, and rotation rate. Translation: more
motion gestures and greater precision for an even better gaming
experience. Two cameras. Double the fun.
iPod touch captures video with two built-in cameras. It shoots amazing
HD 720p video from the back camera. And with its advanced backside
illumination sensor, it captures beautiful footage even in low-light
settings. All while the built-in microphone records conversations,
music, or any audio at the same time. And on the front of the iPod
touch, the built-in camera is perfect for making FaceTime calls and
shooting self-portraits. It's surprising how much fun can fit into
something so small. Multi-Touch. Control at your fingertips.
When you put your finger on the iPod touch, how does it just start
doing what you want it to do? It's a chain reaction, really. The
Multi-Touch display layers a protective shield over a capacitive panel
that senses your touch using electrical fields. It then transmits that
information to the Retina display below it. So you can glide through
albums with Cover Flow, flick through photos and enlarge them with a
pinch, zoom in and out on a section of a web page, and control game
elements precisely. FaceTime comes to iPod touch. Don't just say hello. Smile. Tap for a more instant instant message.
Take "LOL" to the next level and actually see friends laughing out
loud. Or bring "XOXO" to life when you blow someone a kiss from miles
away. FaceTime on iPod touch makes it possible. FaceTime works right out
of the box--just enter your Apple ID and email address. Or create a new
email account just for FaceTime. Using FaceTime is as easy as it gets.
Say you want to start a video call with your best friend over Wi-Fi.
Just tap the FaceTime app and find her entry to start the call. An
invitation pops up on her iPod touch or iPhone 4 screen asking if she
wants to join you. When she accepts, FaceTime begins. It's all perfectly
seamless. And it works in both portrait and landscape. See how much fun
you can have. See friends while you talk with FaceTime, or play games against friends or unknown foes with Game Center. | Two cameras make either side its fun side.
iPod touch has two built-in cameras, one on the front above the display
and one on the back. The front camera has been tuned for FaceTime. It
has just the right field of view and focal length to focus on your face
at arm's length. So it always presents you in the best possible light.
Which is particularly handy when you're talking to someone who's more
than just a friend. The back camera. See and share.
So your roommate had to work late and couldn't make it to the concert.
You can share the encore with a FaceTime call. As the band takes the
stage and starts playing one of her all-time favorite songs, just tap a
button. And before the lead singer can belt out his first note, iPod
touch switches to the back camera and to the sure-to-be-legendary
performance. Another tap switches to the front camera and to you.
Simple, fast, and fun. HD video recording comes to iPod touch. Ready, and action. Built-in editing gives video a fun-tuning.
No need to wait until you're back at your computer to edit video. With
basic editing built into iPod touch, you can get right down to business.
Just drag to select start and end points on a filmstrip. Keep only the
parts of the video you want, and turn it into something you and your
friends will watch again and again. Make mini blockbusters in
just a few taps with iMovie on iPod touch. Say you're on an amazing road
trip, and you want to create a video postcard of everything you've seen
and done. Just use the iMovie app--pick it up in the App Store for just
$4.99. Built for iPod touch, iMovie lets you combine and edit video
clips, give them that extra something with dynamic themes and
transitions, add music and photos, and share your finished movies with
the world. Make a movie. Starring you. The
next time you venture out on, say, an amazing hike, don't just tell your
friends about it. Show them. In addition to the high-definition camera
on the back, iPod touch has a VGA-quality camera on the front--above the
display--that lets you see yourself on the display while you record.
It's perfect for turning the camera on yourself. No more guessing if
you're in the frame or accidentally cropping yourself out altogether. So
get ready for your close-up. Shoot what you want. Share where you want.
Ever find yourself in the middle of typing an email when you see
something that words just can't describe? Just launch the camera and
record on the fly. Then upload your HD movie directly to YouTube. Or
select some video from the Camera Roll and attach it to a new email
message, ready to send. Posting to your Facebook page or blog is also
just a tap away. And you can easily sync all the video you shoot on iPod
touch back to your Mac or PC. Point and shoot.
An awesome view. A decked-out cupcake. Your dog looking unbearably
cute. If you want to take a quick photo to upload to your Facebook page,
either camera on iPod touch can also capture stills. Just tap on the
screen to adjust exposure. Then post to Facebook and let the comments
begin. The new Game Center app on iPod touch lets you expand your social gaming network--exponentially. | Game Center. Way more than two can play that game. Gamers rejoice. Game Center is here.
The new Game Center app on iPod touch lets you expand your social
gaming network. Exponentially. All anyone needs to play is an iPod touch
or iPhone running iOS 4.1. With iOS 4.1, you'll see a Game Center app
on your Home screen. Just tap it and sign in with your Apple ID, and
you're good to go. You can create a different nickname that will be
visible to friends and the gaming community. You can also assign several
email addresses to the Game Center app, making it easy for more friends

you're signed in to the Game Center app, you can invite someone by
sending a friend request using their nickname or email address. Your
friends show up in a separate Friends list in the Game Center app. Tap
on a friend's name, and you can see what games they've been playing. You
can also check out pending friend requests you receive, and add as you
see fit. Leaderboards and achievements. Score some bragging rights.

friends, as well as all players of each game. You can also compare game
achievements with your friends. Check out leaderboards and achievements
in the Game Center app and in each individual game app. Let the smack
talk begin. Meet your match. Say you want to
get a multiplayer game going. Auto-match will prioritize your friends
if they happen to be looking for an auto-match, too. Otherwise, it will
set you up with a soon-to-be-friend from anywhere around the world. You
can also choose to invite friends and have auto-match fill the number of
players needed for a game. Music. Let your fingers do the rocking. Cover Flow. A work of album art.
What a song does for your ears, Cover Flow on iPod touch does for your
eyes and fingers. Turn iPod touch on its side and glide through your
music by album art with the flick of your finger. Tap an album cover to
flip it over and display a track list. Tap again to start the music. Genius playlists. From one great song comes an even greater playlist.
Say you're listening to a song you really love and want to hear other
tracks that go great with it. Genius uses that song to find other songs
in your library and makes a Genius playlist for you. Listen to the
playlist right away, save it for later, or even refresh it and give it
another go. Count on Genius to create a playlist you wouldn't have
thought of yourself. Genius Mixes. The ultimate mix-master.
Genius acts as your personal DJ. All you do is sync iPod touch to
iTunes, and Genius automatically searches your library to find songs
that sound great together. Then it creates multiple mixes you'll love.
These mixes are like channels programmed entirely with your music. It's a
great way to rediscover songs you haven't heard in forever--and some
you even forgot you had. Let your fingers do the rocking. | Shake to Shuffle. And rock 'n' roll with it.
Shake things up a bit. Musically speaking, that is. The next time
you're listening to your tunes, turn on Shake to Shuffle, then give iPod
touch a shake to shuffle to a different song in your music library.
It's just another way iPod touch keeps your music feeling fresh. iTunes. That's entertainment.
Feed your iPod touch songs and music videos from your iTunes library on
your computer. Or buy and download new music on your iPod touch when

they're listening to, buying, and recommending. Or catch up with your
favorite artists and see if they're playing near you. Bluetooth. No strings attached.
