			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It goes without saying that the new Apple iPod Touch 4G belongs to the world’s most popular portable gaming device and now it brings even more fun. The new <a href="http://direct.tesco.com/q/N.1998390.aspx">iPod touch</a> is available in black and white and it comes with a number of useful features. Are you ready to find everything about them? </p>
<p><img style="display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;" src="http://takeipod.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/AW11209-9993TPS1025205.jpg" alt="Why Buy Apple iPod Touch 4G" title="AW11209-9993TPS1025205.jpg" border="0" width="180" height="180" /></p>
<p><span id="more-553"></span></p>
<p>The new iPod touch boasts over 200 new features, like iMessage, Notification Center, and Twitter integration. What is more, you can record HD video and make FaceTime calls.</p>
<p>Being an owner of the new gadget you are welcome to visit the App Store to choose from over 500,000 apps. </p>
<p>The new gadget features iCloud, which is used to store your music, photos, apps and much more. The gadget is still available in 8GB, 32GB and 64GB models, the camera still takes 960&#215;720 sill photos and 720p video and has an Apple A4 processor inside. What I like the most about the new device is the fact it comes with the iOS 5 software pre-installed.</p>
<p>The iPod weighs 101 grams and it sounds great especially compared to the iPhone 4S&#8217; 140 grams. This iPod lacks the iPhone&#8217;s mute/lock switch and the screen but it comes with the same Retna display of the iPhone 4 and 4S.</p>
<p>I am ready to bet you will like the new gadget!</p>

<p>Have you heard about the latest news in the iPod world? Well, Siri hacked on iPod Touch and it is not fully working. The problem arising is that there is difficulty in communicating with the Apple Servers.
<p>Yes, it’s true that hackers who are trying too hard to get the Siri system interface to work on non-iPhone 4S devices have now realized that they have got some sort of success. These hackers are getting success with all members of the current iOS family because the enterprising pair have grafted Siri on a current generation iPod Touch.</p>
<p><span id="more-531"></span>
<p>A lot of confusion has come up over the Siri technology on the iPhone 4S and its former app, Siri Assistant, which is now defunct. It was available on the earlier versions of the iPhone but it was removed due to failure. Some tests with a modified Siri on the iPhone4 and on iPad 2 devices reveal that without even been connected to the network servers, the program runs slower that it actually does on the iPhone 4S. So, Apple is these days concerned about the quality of the experience on the non 4S devices.</p>

Apple has recently, removed the iPod Classic click wheel games from iTunes. Yes, this a shocking news for game lovers of iPod but Apple did it on its 10<sup>th</sup> birthday anniversary just for its MP3 Player and iPod Classic.
<p><u></u><u></u>
<p>Though, the rumors were that Apple will discontinue iPod Classic and iPod Shuffle, something contrary happened and that is the removal of these games from iTunes store. Apple has altogether removed the section in iTunes that was devoted to games that were made for classic iPod’s click wheel.</p>
<p><span id="more-526"></span>
<p><u></u><u></u>
<p>Earlier, gamers were able to access to the games through a link in the iTunes App Store with the name “iPod Click Wheel Games”. It is also expected that Apple will put the iPod Classic to rest during its major “Let’s Talk iPhone” event.</p>

<p> <span id="more-482"></span>
<p>Use vouchers</p>
<p>Never purchase anything (no matter how big or small) without checking for a discount first. Many electronics retailers are offering printable or online vouchers to save you some money at the moment, to keep customers coming through their doors during the recession. You could save a large amount by simply entering a promotional code at the checkout or by taking a printable voucher with you to the store.</p>
<p>Compare iPods</p>
<p>Never buy a new iPod model without comparing prices first. You will be surprised at how much you could save by simply being savvy about which retailers are selling the iPod for what, and whether you can get any freebies with it too. Keep an eye on the market before you buy your iPod and you’ll get the best deal.</p>

<p>Buy a refurbished iPod</p>
<p>If you want a more advanced model of iPod but can’t afford it, consider buying a refurbished or second hand iPod. Apple offers these from their website, and you can relax knowing that the Apple experts have made your iPod resalable and that it will be of good quality. To save even more money, buy from an individual from an online market place, like eBay and make some huge savings. Be aware that the quality from individual sellers will vary. If you can, buy a second-hand iPod which still has some of its warranty period left.</p>
<p>Don’t forget about CD’s</p>
<p>It may take time to download all of your CD collection onto your iTunes library, but you could save a small fortune by taking the time out to burn all of your CD’s to your music library. Rummage around for any CD’s you’ve bought in the past (or lend friends and family’s) and get as much free music in your library as possible. You can get very cheap CD’s from music clearance stores, so it may be worth buying them from a shop and downloading the music from the CD, then sell the CD on afterwards. This could save you a lot of money on iTunes purchases.</p>
<p>Don’t buy official accessories</p>
<p>Official accessories can be overpriced. Products like iPod docks, headphones, chargers etc can be found elsewhere for a fraction of the price as opposed to going straight to the Apple store. Have a look on sites like Amazon or Play for accessories as they’ll have a wide range of products to choose from which won’t have the official price tag.</p>

<p>Only buy the model you need</p>
<p>Don’t spend a fortune on the latest iPod that can do everything imaginable- just buy a model which has the features that you’ll use. If you have no interest in watching videos on your iPod, buy an older model which just plays music and save yourself a packet. Stay away from pushy sales people, and research the exact model you’d like before you go to buy. This is a sure fire way to get the right iPod model for you.</p>
