Re: two ipod questions please

2013-07-24 Thread RobH!
The iPod Touch 5th gen is almost a phone, without the phone chip, so it 
won't do calls, not those calls at least, but it will do the rest the phone 
will do.
It's about half the price of the phone, just in case it matters.

Hello Rex,



The iPod Fifth Gen is the iPod Touch Fifth Gen.

If you are looking to buy an iPod Touch, do yourself a favour and do not buy
a Fourth Gen because the Fifth Gen which was released last October is
leagues above the Fourth Gen:

Much better camera

much faster processor

Dual band WiFi

it has SIRI

It has the new Lightning connecto

It has the larger 4 inch screen yet it is super thin and light.

Lastly, and very importantly, it is the only iPod Touch which you can
upgrade to iOS 7 when it is released in September.



Yes, you can read text and PDF files although you may require some apps to
do so, some of which are free and some of which are not. Dropbox and iBooks
are free and you can read text files in Dropbox and PDF files you can read
in Dropbox or iBooks.

There are also apps like Voice Dream Reader which can read text files, PDF
files, Word documents and many other files with a high quality voice. This
app you would have to buy and then you have to buy voices separately, most
are $1.99 and a few are $2.99. The app store link where you can read more
about Voice Dream Reader is as follows:



https://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/voice-dream-reader-text-to/id496177674?mt=8

Re: two ipod questions please

2013-07-24 Thread RobH!
I have to agree that I got rid of an iPod touch 4, as I found the sound too 
poor to work with.
Ok, hearing is not my strong suit, so the device had to be.  so the Mini 
does it so far.

Another important difference to me regarding the iPod Touch 4th gen and 5th 
Gen is the sound. The 5th gen has much better sound quality. The 4th Gen’s 
speaker is smaller and it sounds very tinny sounding. When I had both in 
hand, there was definitly a big difference. The 5th Gen, in my opinion, is 
way superior over the 4th Gen.

The iPod 5th gen and the iPod Touch are the same. It's just how one 
calls the same device. As for me I go for the official name from Apple, 
iPod Touch 5th generation.
