New iPod Touch Has Vibration?

The Accessibility feature page of the iPod touch does say it has vibration, so it does seem like it!

 

I don't think iFixit has broken down the 4th gen iPod touch yet? They should be tearing it down in a week once they receive it (they have to wait for it just like us)

Also, check out the page that article is referring to: http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/features/accessibility.html Just scroll down to the FaceTime paragraph and it says it will vibrate.

That paragraph is copy-pasted nearly word-for-word from the iPhone 4 page, but it seems like a major oversight if the iPod touch actually doesn't have vibration and they left that in.

 

Yes, so it would be a major oversight by Apple if they said it had vibration when it doesn't. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't do something like that, so it seems more than likely it has vibration.

 

apple tends to copy and past. maybe they just copied it form the iphone part. also they lie. remember they had flash in one of their ipad ads?

 

The vibrator device is actually pretty small, check out what it looks like in the iPhone 4: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Repair/Installing-iPhone-4-Vibrator/3145/3

I tried looking at the FCC teardown photos to see if I could spot it, but their teardown just isn't thorough enough.

 

I would love a vibration device, for alarms where I don't wish to disturb others.

We'll see then.

 

for some reason the scene from 'When Harry Met Sally' comes to mind...

 

This is awesome!
It also says something about white on black screen:

I didn't understand this thing. Does it mean the color will change like if we put a theme?

 

.

 

It means it will invert the colors. White is black, blue is orange, etc.

 

i just had a chat with an apple expert and he said there IS vibrating on the new ipod touch!

 

I had a chat with an Apple expert earlier today and he said there wasn't. So I'm not sure how much I trust them.

 

Odd then that the tech specs don't mention it:

Thanks for a quick reply. This is awesome! black colored iOS

 

Oddly enough, *these* tech specs don't mention it:

Just because it's not listed doesn't mean it's not there
