Apple announced a new iPod Touch today at their “Let’s talk iPhone event”, an updated version of their most popular iPod. The new Touch will support iOS 5 features, like Game Center (it’s currently the most popular game player in the world, according to Apple, so that makes sense), iCloud, and iMessage.
Using iMessage, the iPod touch can basically send free, unlimited text messages, videos, and photos over WiFi to other iOS 5 users on iPod touches, iPhones, and iPads. iCloud will also give iPod touch users access to their music, books, and documents anywhere they have WiFi access. Combined with its previous ability to run FaceTime, these features help blur the lines between the Touch and iPhone a bit.
Most importantly, it now comes in white! The previous iPod touch cost $229 for the 8GB model, but it’s been lowered to $199. The 32GB model will be $299, and the 64GB model $399. The new iPod touch will be available on October 12, the same day as iOS 5 and iCloud
