The new Apple iPod touch player comes with iOS 4.1, the newest version of the world’s most advanced mobile operating system. iOS 4.1 enables new features like FaceTime video calling, multitasking, folders and Game Center.

 

New Apple iPod touch with Retina display

Apple's stunning Retina display makes everything on Apple 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 Apple iPod touch is held at a normal distance, making text, pictures and video look sharper, smoother and more realistic.

With just one tap of the new FaceTime application, Apple iPod touch users can call other new iPod touch or iPhone 4 users to easily see what their friends are up to, share important moments like the first day of school and even show others what they are seeing by easily switching to the rear-facing camera.
