iPod touch iPod Touch model variants ?

[isshou]

Hi every body,

does any one knows what are the differences between these two iPod Touch models ?

MA627LL/A
MA627ZK

I own the second one, and it is a week 43, 16GB one bought in Europe.

regards,

I wouldn't have thought it was such a difficult question !.

Perhaps, is it an unappropriated question for this forum ?

That is a week 27 from the serial code.

Thank you for your reply. However MA627LL/A and
MA627ZK are the model number NOT the Serial Number my serial is 1A743xxxxxx, that is week 43.

In any case, thank you for trying to help.
regards

Except that is not the 'serial code'. It is the Apple part number.

MA627LL/A - American
MA627ZK - European

It isn't even as simple as that I am afraid. I have two European (UK) models, and the part number of those are: MA627ZO/A.

As for the OP's question, I can't really help but to tell you that I know Apple uses different part numbers between different regions they sell their products in. With the latest batch of iPod's, it is also clear that sometimes these parts numbers differ within the same region without their being any functional difference in the product.

Put simply, there is no difference that you should notice. The hardware should appear and function the same in both models. There have not been any updates to the iPod touch line yet.

David and cjmal,

Thank you very much for your reply.

Hmmmm It makes sense !.

Perhaps they do it just to track down where a particular product was originally sold for any possible legal / warranty issues. It comes to my mind the audio output level limitation in some EU countries.

good, thanks a lot.
