No way, this is sweet if it's true, but still don't believe it. Probably the yes answer refers to the question whether he can manually manage his songs.

The iPod touch does not have Bluetooth according to any of the specs that are available, nor any of the information that we have.

Further, unless they've added A2DP, which would be huge news (and should have been announced yesterday, therefore), the Bluetooth feature has no use on the iPod touch whatsoever. On the iPhone, it exists solely to provide cellular headset support.

Manual management has been confirmed, so it is entirely possible that they were referring to that.

Were they just lazy taking screens from the iPhone?

From ENGADGET link..

Update 3: Two more bits: we heard from a pretty decent source that the touch internals are very similar to the iPhone internals, and that there is a Bluetooth chip in there -- it's just not activated.



I wonder if this will enable music sharing between iPods...

We all know how music sharing between media players works. :P I think until the record companies smart up, it's too Zoon for something like that.

Seems, that the Touch is going to make a lot of hackers happy this holiday season. If bluetooth is in there, by december it will work. Probably! :)
