iPod touch Does the term "iTouch" annoy you?

[iRebecca27]

Does it bother anyone else when people say iTouch, or do let it slide as a personal preference?
No one says iClassic or iNano...

Yes, actually.

My $0.02.

 

[ZuneMan?]

No. Does not bother me at all.

Only pedantic idiotic fools are annoyed.

I hate it when people make that screeching noise with polystyrene.

edit: also have never liked the tv show Lost.

 

[niuniu]

First time I've heard (seen) it said like that. Bit crap really, probably why Apple didn't call it iTouch in the first place..

 

[OllyW]

iTouch doesn't bother me in the slightest.

MacBook Collector's Edition on the other hand.............

 

[queshy]

Actually, it drives me nuts. Why is it so hard to say iPod touch?

 

[iPhone 62S]

iTouch dosen't bother me, but "iPhone 3Gs" (when talking about the iPhone 3GS, not the plural of iPhone 3G) does a lot.

Same here, sounds pervy too...

iTouch is the name of a Touchscreen EPOS software suite, and likely many other things that predate the iPod Touch. But when I see iTouch I think of that.

I did wonder why a fairly niche software suite became famous all of a sudden.

Only pedantic idiotic fools are annoyed.

Or people who know something else called an iTouch.

The same with the iPhone. An iPhone was on the market and preceded Apple's product.

 

[TraceyS/FL]

No.

But this is kinda a taboo topic- read the sticky at the top of the forum.

 

[Darth Maynard]

So what if, on 9/9, they come out and just call it an iTouch? What then? Will this thread finally be moot? I could only hope for so much.

 

[andybno1]

I personally hate it because it's refereing to another product and not the iPod Touch

 

[GoCubsGo]

Meh I have bigger things to worry about really.

 

[rdowns]

It's annoying when you hear that term in the forums. Completely the opposite when the masseuse says it at the local rub and tug.

"I touch?"
"Go on, you know you want to…"
I presume your masseuse(r?)'s English is somewhat below par?

I am that pedantic idiotic fool.

 

[tabasco70]

No. Does not bother me at all.

what an unnecessary statement.

 

[Brewerpaul]

I like it: it's easier to type. 4 fewer characters, including the space.
In fact, I'd like Touch even better. Or iPT. I certainly can't get worked up over it though.

That's a useless comment. Why waste your precious time replying in that case when you could be worrying about all those bigger issues..

The iTouch thing bugs me, don't know why, probably because that's not what it's called..

 

[Benguitar]

Yes, It isn't "correct" and I will correct someone online about it.

But if a hot female is talking about her iPod touch I'm not gonna be a jerk.

 

[Unspoken Demise]

Yes.

 

[techfreak85]

eh, some days yes, same days not.

more picky when it first came out.

 

[Adam0306]

Yes I absolutely hate it. I make it a point to correct them when I hear it. Why can't people just call it what it was labeled as by the manufacturer and quit trying to recreate it?
