The fact remains that if someone owns an iPod touch that it is quite possible b/c they chose NOT to get an iPhone. For that reason it is right to assume that someone who owns an iPod touch would not go to or frequent the iPhone forum.
They seem to be two distinct platforms, and I don't understand why it's unreasonable to assume that there can be individual threads in separate forums discussing the new software. After all, it's not like there are three or four threads in each forum cluttering up the front page.
But that's just me...
I agree completely. I have a link to this forum on my Touch home page and come 'here' if I want to read and/or discuss anything to do with the iPod Touch. You could argue that nearly every thread on this forum has been discussed on the iPhone forum at some point and therefor the whole Touch forum is a waste of time and space.
So with that in mind, I'd like to start a discussion 'here' on the new firmware upgrade.
Normally, I would update immediately, but since my Touch has been working flawlessly since the last upgrade (apart from 1 app that crashes constantly), I am reluctant to upgrade yet. Safari has been extremely stable and I don't use the save pictures function so if anyone has found any hidden features, lets talk about them. Also, the app that crashes on me constantly (Tech News) has a built in browser. When Apple says that they have improved the stability of Safari, would that also improve the stability of a browser within an app?
PS, I checked out the thread on the Iphone forum via Macrumors mobile site on my Touch (only displays 5 posts per page). At last count, the thread had 78 pages of mostly juvenile replies to someone who complained about people posting that they were in the process of updating. One more reason to have a condensed discussion here, as it's a known fact that Touch owners are much more mature and intelligent than iPhone owners.
