thanks for the comment, though i myself would prefer something like this.

the main reason i made this quote is because that sushi really looks good.

well, you asked: hope you like it
someone asked me earlier about the battery icon, which i have changed to the word (RED), and as the battery depletes, the letters turn white from right to left, like how the battery depletes.

Why don't you want a red iPod touch to have a battery icon?;)

the (RED) thing is the battery icon.

i guess i'll add that to the top of the post.. the letters turn white like the battery depleting.
 
i don't like it because it doesn't have the new software update! haha just kidding, but it would be interesting to see variety as some one previously stated.
 
The front of the iPod Touch and iPhone really only looks good with Black. But the back looks good with any colour. The reason the front only looks good with Black is because of the screen. When its off its black and when its on it uses a Black background for the Home screen. It looks at its best when it is surrounded by a Black bezel as it softens the eye to the thickness of the bezel around the screen. If you add any other colour to this it begins to stick out and looks unattractive.

This is the reason the iPhone and iPod Touch ship with a Black bezel as do the Unibody Macs, most LCD TV's and the new 24" Apple Display.

thats what all the other people were telling me at iLounge Forums.

i could see it be annoying for some people, but i would not mind at all... in fact, if i could, i'd change mine, but that's not gonna happen.
 
The iPhone and iPod touch have little tiny sensors under the glass. It would look like crap with that color as there would be black circles in the white/red/blue/whatever.

if apple ever decided to build chromatic iPod touch models, by that time, they will have ambient light sensors built into the screen, even though they havent found out a way yet with the backlight.

and besides, it is just one little tiny sensor anyways, they could manage to cover it up somehow i'm sure

hey thanks!! thats awesome didnt expect you to make that. could you make a union jack one if at all possible? that would be ace!

more than one color would be tough.

even if i did try to make one, it wouldn't be very good.

you'll just have to dream of one :) ... or get adobe photoshop (best photo editing software) and make one yourself. though, you have to pay for photoshop.

misleading title :p maybe change to white iPod Touch concept :p

that sounded like a better idea after thinking about it for awhile.



i have added a poll, if you haven't, please vote now.
note:that i have not added monochrome, that is just too much. even the red might be going too far, but black and white are apples original colors.
 
In my opinion, they all look terrible. They make it look like a little toy instead of a high powered gadget. In fact, if the Touch only came in colors like this, I wouldn't have purchased one because I'd feel like a middle school girl pulling it out in public. Just like others have said, you can't change the front to any color besides black. The back casing however could be different colors and I think that would look good. I would prefer more metallic colors than the ones you have chosen though.

You think the iPod touch is more than a toy? Srsly?
 
I would rather an all black. I hate the way the bezel pops out at you. I wanted to do a mod to my iPhone to make the bezel black. Maybe its because I hate chrome.
I took all the chrome off my truck as well as put black rims on it. My truck is black BTW.
