As the latest one, iPod touch 4 packed with incredible new features including Apple’s stunning Retina display, HD video recording, FaceTime video calling, 3-axis gyro, Apple’s A4 chip, iOS 4.1, and Game Center — all combined in the thinnest and lightest iPod touch ever. The new iPod touch features up to 40 hours of music playback and seven hours of video playback on a single battery charge.

FaceTime comes to ipod touch.

Video calling is in full effect on iPod touch. iPod touch has two built-in cameras, one on the front above the display and one on the back. The front camera has been tuned for FaceTime. It has just the right field of view and focal length to focus on our face at arm’s length. Now friends can see what we’re up to, when we’re up to it. With the tap of a button, we can record of our own a video anywhere and at any time. Using FaceTime is as easy as it gets, just enter Apple ID and email address is OK.

Retina display comes to ipod touch.

Apple’s stunning Retina display makes everything on iPod touch look even more incredible, whether playing games, watching video, browsing the web or flicking through photos. The Retina display has 960 x 640 pixels—four times as many pixels than before. The resulting 326 pixels per inch is so dense that the human eye is unable to distinguish individual pixels when iPod touch is held at a normal distance, making text, images and video look sharper, smoother and more realistic. Now we can put our favorite HD DVD to iPod touch and enjoy a new feeling. The Retina display includes LED backlighting and an ambient light sensor that automatically adjusts the brightness of the screen for the best viewing and battery life possible.

HD video recording comes to iPod touch.

Now we can record video in stunning high definition. An advanced backside illumination sensor delivers brilliant video in both bright and low-light settings. Also, we can edit and share our movie in just a few taps. Moreover, built-in editing gives video a fun-tuning. Just drag to select start and end points on a filmstrip. Keep only the parts of the video we want, and turn it into something we will watch again and again.

Make mini blockbusters in just a few taps with iMovie on iPod touch.

Just use the iMovie app — pick it up on the App Store for just $4.99. Built for iPod touch, iMovie lets people combine and edit video clips, give them that extra something with dynamic themes and transitions, add music and photos, and share the finished movies with the world.

Game center.

iPod touch is the most popular game player in the world, I wish I had more fingers. With tens thousands of games and other applications in almost every category just a tap away at the App Store, iPod touch has more games than any other platform. Oh, I almost forget Gyro and Multi-Touch. The new, built-in, three-axis gyroscope on iPod touch gives people fantastic pitch, roll, and yaw. Rotation around gravity. And extremely precise position information.

Well, the new iPod touch will be available this week for a suggested price of $229 ( US) for the 8GB model, $299 ( US) for the 32GB model and $399 ( US) for the 64GB model through the Apple Store, Apple’s retail stores and Apple Authorized Resellers.
