Does the iPod Touch have Bluetooth? - UPDATED

Check the upper right corner. Squint a bit. There. See it? Next to the battery meter. Yup. Lest mine eyes deceive me, that's a Bluetooth icon.

Unannounced Bluetooth feature? No Mail or Notes programs? Delayed, unspecified launch date ("a few weeks")? Something is fishy. And does anybody else think the iPod Touch's home screen looks a little sparse and underwhelming when compared to the iPhone's?Anyone care to speculate as to why there would be a Bluetooth icon on the Touch when Stevie J and Party didn't mention a thing about it yesterday?

UPDATED: Nope. Apple confirmed no Bluetooth. Oh well. I suppose we can still hope for a Mail app.

  1. Maybe it's like the iPhone--it had a hidden icon that people didn't know about until way later (youtube).

    Who knows. Do you own one now?

  2. I sure hope so. Most of all, I want a Mail app. Can't imagine why they wouldn't put one on if they give you full Internet browsing.

  3. At this rate, you might be better off hoping the 3rd party gurus hack the iPod Touch quickly so you can get whatever you want on it quickly. :-) It beats waiting for Apple to finish the job.
