Apple to unveil iPod Touch in S’pore  

IF YOU don’t have Apple’s iPhone, fret not. A nearly identical device called the iPod Touch will be available here by end of the month. It can’t make mobile phone calls but it can play music, photos and videos as well as surf the Web. With all the hallmarks of an Apple product, the iPod Touch, to be unveiled at a media launch on Tuesday morning, features a sleek design with a black casing. In the hand it feels comfy and warm. Plus you can see all the photos and video clips on a brilliant 3.5-inch wide screen which sports a higher resolution than any current iPod. The coupe de grace is the touch screen interface. Use your finger to start the music player or drag and drop photos from one folder to another. It is the first iPod that comes with built-in wi-fi and a Safari browser. In

Singapore, which will soon have more than 5,000 hot spots by end September, anyone with it can surf the Web almost anywhere on the island. For some users, the ability to surf may outweigh the only 16GB of storage on the iPod Touch. With such a capacity, there’s not very many songs to carry around. Another setback: Apple’s agreement with Starbucks to sell music using wi-fi will not be available here since the deal is only with the coffee joint’s outlets in the

US
.
The iPod Touch was announced here on Sunday with the refreshed iPod line-up comprising the iPod Classic, Nano and Shuffle. Most of the products are available now except for the iPod Touch, which is priced from $498. The Nano is retailed from $298 and the Shuffle from $138.

iPhone (Apple)     iphone.png 

iPhone is a revolutionary new mobile phone that allows you to make a call by simply tapping a name or number in your address book, a favorites list, or a call log. It also automatically syncs all your contacts from a PC, Mac, or Internet service. And it lets you select and listen to voicemail messages in whatever order you want - just like email.

Wii (Nintendo)

Wii is the fifth home video game console released by Nintendo. The console is the direct successor to the Nintendo GameCube. Nintendo states that its console targets a broader demographic than that of Microsoft’s Xbox 360 and Sony’s PlayStation 3. It competes with both as part of the seventh generation of gaming systems. A distinguishing feature of the console is its wireless controller, the Wii Remote, which can be used as a handheld pointing device and can detect acceleration in three dimensions. Another is WiiConnect24, which enables it to receive messages and updates over the Internet while in standby mode.  Nintendo first spoke of the console at the 2004 E3 press conference and later unveiled the system at the 2005 E3. Satoru Iwata revealed a prototype of the controller at the September 2005 Tokyo Game Show. At E3 2006, the console won the first of several awards. By December 8, 2006, it completed its launch in four key markets.
