Hi Carol.

The batteries in the apple line of portable devices are fitted, non user serviceable parts so if the battery fails, you need to go back to apple for a repair. As for IPod's, I can get hold of 64 gig IPod touch's for around £270 from my sources, so if you want to avail yourself of my contacts, I'd be happy to oblige.

All the best, Ibrahim.

Interesting. I looked on Argos and Apple today, as well as elsewhere, but didn't see any variation in prices. I thought maybe Apple fix this one ...

Anyway, the only other question I haven't yet asked is about the rechargeable batteries. Can you purchase these and fit them yourself, or is it another case of back to the manufacturer!

Hi Carol,

The price is very much the same where ever you buy the
ipod. Thou before Christmas Argos was selling the ipod
touch 32 gb for £20 less that the Apple store.

OK, I do understand that Brian but don't know exactly
where they're sold and
was surprised to learn about Argos.

Is there much difference in price as you look around and
any way of finding
the prices from these different stores, please?

Jackie,

I'm getting more and more hooked.  Just can't quite
decide whether to go for phone or the Ipod Touch.
Strangely enough, we
are also looking at Bose systems
right now and I'm thinking of Bose speakers for my
computer system which is away from the main stereo.
Anyway, I now fully understand the difference between
these two so shall be looking, though am disappointed as
we don't have an Apple store very near at all.

Hi Carol

With the iPod Touch, as long as you put your broadband
security key in, you will be able to treat it like a
PC online, where you can download material and browse
the Internet.  What you can't obviously

do is make calls etc, because the phone part is not
included.  But, as I've said several times, the phone
isn't the bit I want
as I am happy with the handsets and Talks I use.  I
just love the iPod Touch for the applications it can
work with.  At the moment, for example, I have put my
device through a set of Bose speakers, and am listening
to Five Live Sports Extra so I can hear the tennis.
Quality is very good and no drop-out or stuttering.


Kind Regards,

Jackie,

I never realised you could do so much with the Ipod
Touch.  I hadn't thought about it going online, though
I should, knowing that Apples stuff works with ITunes,
and I certainly hadn't thought about it being able to
run these other apps.

Very interesting, for sure!

So, does anyone know if all apps work across the board
on their equipment? Just interested in how things work.

My Apple keyboard arrived yesterday, and pairing it
with my iPod Touch was extremely straightforward.  So
I decided to visit the App Store and, for 59p each, I
bought four applications that work with VoiceOver.
They are the World Fact Book 2011, a dictionary and
thesaurus, Tune In Radio and, probably my favourite,
Birds of Britain. The latter is an amazing little
program if you love bird sound and details.  Not only
can you play the song, but you can listen to VoiceOver
provide a description of their size, colour, family,
time of year etc.  There is also a favourites button
to
use where you can add a library of your favourite
birds
to it.

Tune In Radio is great.  Similarly, there is a
bookmark facility where you can make a list of the
stations you wish to add.  Because

I love tennis, and the Australian Open is on at the
moment, I have great difficulty getting it on DAB as
we have such a diabolical signal in these parts.  So
when I tuned in using the Sonata at
8.00 this morning, a message said that restricted
rights prevented coverage.  I find this often happens
at weekends when football matches are in progress too.
So I tuned my iPod to Sports Extra and, low and
behold, got the tennis on live.

All the above apps work with VoiceOver.  I don't use
my keyboard for everything, mainly when I get into
tricky areas that need a bit

of typing. Mostly, I use my fingers and have got used
to doing so now.

Just thought I'd pass on the info.
