Add me to the list of people that need to call the thing an iPod touch. It is always the Windows people that say the name wrong! :mad:

iTouch myself.

Which is why I call it an iTouch ;).

To be honest calling it an iTouch is like calling Mac OS X Mac oh ess ex. rather than Mac oh ess 10.

After owning an iMac and an iPhone for six months... my ol' lady still calls it OS Ex. Even at the Genius Bar. Kinda embarrassing.
 
For God's sake.

'iPod touch' sells itself. End.

There is no need for the branding to reflect 'touch' in any way.

I could care less about people calling it 'iTouch' 'iPod Touchable' "The touch' 'iPt' 'ipt' '2/3 iPhone' or any other variation which has reered it's head due to lazy language.

Actually looking back, iPod Generation 6 (iPod G6 - or just G6) would of been perfect.

Really, your not telling me the one overriding factor which made you choose to buy iPod touch over say, a nano, was the fact it had 'touch' in the branding? - it wasn't. I'd like to be it was based on hardware capability including storage/touch controls as well as software potential. Yes, the iPod brand has been expanded, but iPod touch is now a different brand to iPod. Just as iPod has acquired different names since it's launch due to abbreviation, iPod touch has too. It's a sign that the branding it strong, as we all know iPod is, it's recognized the world over.

So lets give people who are using these abbreviations a break, Yeah?

.. and maybe start caring about REAL issues, like ... O .. i don't know, Poverty?

Let this be an end to a pathetic excuse people like to call an 'issue'.
