No, you do not need a contract for a new iPod Touch. The contract that you see for the iPhone (the iPod Touch with the phone, as some people cal it) on those Apple commercials is for the AT&T carrier that is exclusive to the iPhone. You have to have a two-year contract from AT&T if you want the phone service on any new iPhone.
This contract does not apply to the iPod Touch because the iPod Touch does not have a phone built into it.
You don't have to have a contract to message on your iPod touch because iTouches do not support SIM cards. However, you do need an internet access hub (or internet router) to access the internet so that you can use the iPod messaging service.
iTouches do not support 3G etc. so you cannot message on the go unless you have a mobile phone that can open up its own internet access point using 3G.
Yes. All iPod Touch Texting Apps need Wifi to work.
No
No, you need wi-fi to text on the iPod Touch.
No. There are some apps that allow you to call and text.
no, they don't need a ipod touch too but if they do, you need their number or you could text to a cellphone and you still need to know their number
On the iPod touch you have to have an app to text if you do then your app has a number
YES!!! It's an iPhone with no contract and no calling! And you can text to real phones from it.
Unfortunately, no . However you can get an iPod Touch and text from it.
Get the free app Text Plus. You would need wifi though.
The iphone and ipod touch are almost the exact same. the ipod touch is basicly an iphone but with out text or calls there are also apps with unlimited calling and texting on the ipod touch but you need a wifi connection
You cannot text another iPod Touch with your iPod Touch. The iPod Touch can only go to phones.
If it's an iPhone, yes, you can text in messages. If you have an iPod touch, you can download an app that enables you to text. There are free ones out there that are just as good as ones you have to pay for, so I reccommend looking for one! Any other iPod cannot text from what I know.
you can't? its an ipod not a phone.
iPod Touch already has a browser built in called Safari, were you can go to a website to send sms/text messages but you cannot directly text from an iPod regardless of internet
