Ipod Touch Google Maps

You are lost and don't know what to do? Turn ON your Ipod Touch, find open wifi and go to Ipod Touch Maps.

(True story)Friend of mine called me yesterday,he said "I am lost" I asked him to go to Grapier and type the address he is at and where he wants to drive to.

He called me 30 minutes later and found the place he was looking for!

So my dear Ipod Touch'ers go to that site now and bookmark it, it could save you!

Here are some How To Instructions:

Drag the map around using two fingers!.

Zoom in and out using the buttons on the upper left.

Switch map type, or toggle traffic overlay using the menu on the upper right.

Go somewhere, get driving directions, or search for businesses using the menu on the lower left.

See all directions or local search results at once by scrolling down below the map after you've done a search.

Ipod touch FlyTunes Radio

Last week I posted about FlyTunes Iphone and Ipod Touch online radio. I just want to remind you, today or tomorrow it will be released to public so please check the FlyTunes.FM for more updates.

Ipod Touch 1.1.3 Jailbreak

This morning I checked my email and got this cool tip from source that Ipod Touch 1.1.3 Jailbreak is done.

As of yet it is not known when is it going to be released for public but once it is, I will post link's pictures and maybe even video about it.

I wonder how many of you IPT owners have Jailbreak your Ipod touch....?

Free APP For iPod Touch-Petition!

Ipod Touch Firmware 1.1.3 is out and Apple is charging Ipod Touch owners $20 for applications that some of those applications are developed for free of charge to Apple!


Today MrCat from TouchCrunch forum found great website for ipod touch apps petition

Go to:
http://www.petitiononline.com/freeappi/petition.html

Many Ipod Touch 1.1.3 Firmware Owners are disapointed.

Looking at some 30 comments since yesterday on Ready For Ipod Touch 1.1.3 Firmware Many ipod touch owners are disappointed because Apple is charging $20 for additional applications. I think we all should wait for Developers other then Apple to start coding applications for free.

I have been Open Source Developer for few years now, and there is nothing better then receiving nice Thank You letter or small donations from people that support you and your Programs/Applications/Webdesigns etc.

Jailbreak as we all know was not out the same date as firmware 1.1.1 or 1.1.2, it was always released 2-3 weeks later. Therefore I think there are some experts that will start creating applications for Ipod Touch/Iphone just like for Blackberry or HCT phones for free.

Since I get about 10-15 email updates per day from good ipod touch sources, even from Apple iPhone developers, I will give my best to provide you (How To, Where To) links to get Ipod Touch Applications for Free(Open Source) without Jailbreak your Ipod Touch.
