iPod Touch becomes iPhone

Nibble The miracle of the loaves into fishes

LOW-COST PHONE FOOTLER Jajah has converted the iPod Touch into an iPhone with a new workaround which will allow Touch users to call and text messages using a voice over IP network instead of a carrier's mobile network.

The only thing it can't do is operate away from a Wi-Fi network so it is unlikely to kill the iPhone.

Dubbed White Label, Jajah plans to license the application to wireless and non-wireless operators who offer it under their own brand. µ

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I thought the gen2 iPod Touch had a built-in mic?

And once again...

The first falme-boys out of the gate the the Apple fanboy-knuckleheads. Who cares if you need a mic!? Won't you get one anyway if you plan to VOIP over the ITouch!? Get a grip fruits.

Mic

Like every article Nick writes, he either omits information deliberately, or doesn't do enough research. Interesting find except the iPod Touchs do not come with a built in microphone, so you will have to purchase one compatible with your device first. Seems like a strange point to have forgot to mention in your article....

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
