The Plot Thickens.

This could be an issue for my oft mentioned hope to be able to use a VoIP enabled iPod Touch as a telephone, but it’s still early days for this idea.

However, the people at iPod Touch Mods are going gangbusters on their microphones, so the demand is certainly there…

We’ll just have to wait and see what happens once the iPod Touch SDK is made available…

In the meantime, there’s an alternative available… at least in 2 months time.

Way Cool…

Give it another couple of months and this’ll be well and truly sorted out!

Slightly old, but still relevant; Free WiFI spots around the country.

I’ll only add to this that there’s one right in front of The Guru and The Teacher’s place in Reservoir, where on Christmas eve last year, I was able to make a Skype call because my phone was out of credit. Nice one!

The Guru has told me that Apple will be making iPod Touch APIs available in 2008 for developers to get into the code. And what that means is that those already working on a VoIP solution will be able to refine things so ultimately, the iPhone won’t actually be needed.

As long as you can find a WiFi point of course! But how far – honestly – is it away from being open slather? With Meraki and Community Wireless at work, we’ll finally be able to stop being gouged by Hellstra and Opt-arse for WiFi.
