competition
there should be a section contain information of its competition or at least have some mention of it. Geekyperson (talk) 18:51, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
A new infobox image...?
On the image of the infobox, it shows all of the latest iPod models except for the iPod touch... the image shows the iPod touch 1G (black screen frame), instead of the 2nd generation (has a chrome screen frame). Please update this. 69.255.16.132 (talk) 00:30, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
- I have requested that the author update it. Thank you for bringing that up.--HereToHelp 21:05, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
authentication chip
There should be a mention of the "authentication chips" Apple puts in newer iPods that prevent them from working with unauthorized third party accessories such as video cables, headphones, docks, etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.104.75.198 (talk) 17:17, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
Interoperability
I didn't see any mention of interoperability in the article. This article claims that Apple has a history of trying to prevent interoperability using: firmware encryption, database hash changes, and code obfuscation.

Doesn't this warrant mentioning? pgr94 (talk) 16:54, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
Sales figures
Any chance someone can find some reliable ones, I've had a look around with no luck. We're currently showing 173m In Sept 2008 and 206m 5 months earlier in April 2008, even for WP this is bad! RaseaC (talk) 00:11, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

The infobox says the iPod touch music service is the iTunes WiFi Music Store. With the 3.0 update, it is now the iTunes WiFi Store, since it sells TV shows, movies, etc. Would someone please fix? 98.230.214.136 (talk) 22:08, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
- Done. Thanks! HereToHelp 00:26, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
- It still says music in the infobox. It needs to say "iTunes Store". Would someone please fix? 98.230.214.136 (talk) 15:04, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
- Another infobox correction is that "previous" needs to be changed to "current" in the caption. Would someone please fix? 68.35.20.151 (talk) 01:28, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
