Does anyone have an iPod Touch? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I love, love, LOVE mine. I got it for xmas too along with a FM transmitter for my car. OMG, I've not stopped playing with it. I uploaded a ton of apps to it, photos, music, kids tv shows to amuse Amelia when we're out. They even have games for babies you can download!

What does it mean when the little icons rock back and forth?

Volume control on the side I believe.

Icons rocking mean you can move them round to different parts of the screen to organise them.

I bought myself one a few weeks ago. I love it! I'm so glad I bought it; it's a definite improvement over my nano. However, I am now obsessively making sure all my cover art is correct for each and every song since it displays so prettily on the screen.

I am SOOOO glad I'm not the only one obsessing over this. I've been sorting all mine out since a couple of days before Christmas because I knew I was getting it and I'm still sorting through it all!

My two year old granddaughter has an ipod touch - I kid you NOT!!! Her folks loaded some of her favorite shows on it - Dora, Finding Nemo, etc. She can be a real pill box in a restaurant or store, but give her the ipod and she is quiet as a mouse!!! And to top it off, she can turn the darned thing on, find the movie she wants to watch, start it, stop it, turn up the volume, whatever she wants! You should see her sliding her finger across that screen to find what she wants! It's amazing!!! And she was only two in November

Her folks are not going to be able to keep up with her!!! Of course, they don't let her watch it all the time, or use it as a babysitter - but it does come in handy at times!

Hehehe, that is impressive. Amelia is nearly 1 and I have some games on there designed for like 3 years and under and I put some of them on mine for her. Her favourite is this bubble game, you run your finger over to make the bubbles and then you poke them to pop them. She loves it and it keeps her amused. I also put some of her shows on there to keep her occupied when she's getting ratty and we're at someones house and she'll sit on my knee and watch them.

Yes, that is exactly what they do with my g-daughter's ipod! It is a big help when they are "ratty" as you say!

I bet Amelia will be able to run it before long too - kids are just so smart nowadays!!!

My son has one (18 y/o) and I've been thinking of gettin me one. What about when you're on the internet...what are the chances of viruses? Any programs for them? Haven't seen much info about that when researching.

xxmxaxrxyxx · 01-02-2009, 04:26 AM

well you can really download anything on there unless it came from itunes or the app store...and basic things like pictures...

and this isn't windows and not likely to get a virus attack
