W AAV, the first provider of in-vehicle broadband Internet, has announced that the new Apple iPod Touch will be compatible with the AirBox line of mobile cellular routers. With an AirBox, Apple iPod Touch users will be able to browse the web and download iTunes music while in their moving car. Apple iPhone users have been using AirBoxes to access data features while in the middle of a call. Since the AirBox provides a Wi-Fi hotspot, Apple iPhone users can use Google Maps to get directions while traveling, check the status of an important email, or exchange photos, all through Wi-Fi while speaking on a voice call. In addition, the AirBox runs at broadband speeds as compared to slower EDGE speeds.

In-Vehicle Wi-Fi Internet Solution for iPod Touch

The WAAV AirBox takes the family Internet connection and puts it into the family vehicle. Kids can battle their friends on Xbox Live and Nintendo DS. They can also use their laptop to check Facebook and IM friends. Adults enjoy their in-car Internet as well. "I watched the entire Cubs game on MLB.com while on a trip to Virginia," said David List, a youth counselor at Congregation Beth El in Sudbury, MA. "On the way back, my fiancé was able to work on lessons to teach her fourth grade class."
