PCA on an Ipod Touch

Here's some pictures of browsing PCA on my Ipod touch.
I wanted to look up things on the internet without having to use my computer downstairs. I was hoping it would work from the couch where I watch TV, on my 3 year old wirelessG router. Turns out it works anywhere in the house and downloads at 3 megabits per second. The display is crystal clear and the touch interface works exactly as advertised. I'm really impressed. The pictures I took with my digital camera don't do it justice.
Here's 2 youtube videos of it:

Here's a link to the Apple Iphone Software Development Kit presentation. The upgrade will be available in June and will give the Iphone and Ipod Touch the ability to download applications and run them stand alone. I just bought my Ipod Touch so I could look up things on the internet from my couch so it will be a nice bonus. It's too bad you need a Mac to develop the applications. That could be fun. The presentation is 1 hour 18 minutes long so you'll probably be dragging the slider a lot to skip all the PR stuff.

I bought the iPhone about a month ago. Basically the same thing as the iPod touch except with a phone built in. I think its one of the best purchases I have made in a while. Since buying it I go days without turning on my pc. Very happy with it. The only complaint I have is with the edge network. Why couldn't they implement 3g??

3g kills the battery of the device.

I can kill the battery on my 8525 on a full charge, and even plugged into the wall when using the data network

Didnt know that Dopey. I suppose that would make sense then. WiFi kills it too, but i suppose you can turn it off.
