The iPhone that isn't an iPhone that can be an iPhone
Thanks to VOIP technology, our beloved internet and the iPod Touch, you may now be able to take advantage of making calls with it.
First you will need a microphone for the Touch, such as the Macally iVoiceIII . Then you will need a soldering iron to solder one wire on the Mmicrophone circuit board.
Thanks to Rob.tc, we gives us some good instructions here. Basically you will need the solder a wire to two connectors within the device. Once that is done you will need the "SIP/VOIP app for the iPod Touch. You should know that it does not require jailbreaking the Touch to work, and no soldering on the Touch is needed.
Now this will allow you to make calls using your wifi access. The quality of the call is something we will consider testing and finding out. Remember that you will also need to use your headphones to hear the call.

This is an unofficial announcement of what is to be the new ipods. Rumored for months if not longer, it has been quite some time that a new design of an ipod has come to light. Apple announced a special event to a limited audience and of course they never mention what it can be. Well just about everything has been updated, except the beloved ipod. So here we have some images of the new ipod interface which we believe to be touchscreen based. The event is officially tomorrow, but its so much fun to talk about it before the fact.
Thinksecret says that the ipod will look like the iphone and have drives as large as 120GB. They also say "The rumormill has been ripe with other feature speculation surrounding the new iPod, some more far-fetched than others. While it is possible the new iPod will be the first to pack some sort of wireless capability, suggestions of digital radio playback should be taken with a grain of salt.
Apple's new iPod nano, meanwhile, will gain much of the same functionality as Apple's current 5.5G iPod, including video playback and a higher resolution 320x240 pixel display. The nano will remain Flash-based, with capacities expected to top out at 12GB or 16GB, in keeping with rival product offerings."
All we can say is we will soon find out. Then buy one. Chances are they will be available for purchase starting tomorrow.
