iPod Touch ‘fantastic for web surfing’
13 Nov 2007
The sleek iPod Touch follows a long line of Apple media players offering entertainment on the move but now a new review has highlighted that it can be useful to business travellers.
Lee Lup Yuen, a columnist for ZD Net Asia, said that the device offers travellers a number of convenient features which allow them to be productive while in transit, commenting: “The iPod Touch is a fantastic device for browsing the internet via Wi-Fi.
“It’s slimmer, lighter and has a wider screen (3.5 inch) compared to the typical personal digital assistants,” he added.
One of the iPod Touch’s most hotly anticipated features is its touch sensitive screen, which allows users to flick through their photographs and enlarge web pages by moving their fingers across it.
It also has an ambient light sensor which detects the conditions in which the device is operating and then adjusts the screen settings accordingly.
Mr Yuen said: “The screen is bright and gorgeous. You can browse most websites without having to squint at the tiny text.”
Apple fans can choose between an eight or 16 gigabyte model, providing plenty of storage for music, video and still photographs.
