[QUOTE="MASTERforge, post: 613434, member: 27933"] Hi, I was sniffing after the IPhone for months before it came out in the UK. When it came out the price and monthly contract blew me out of that market. So I started looking at the Ipod Touch. I already have the Ipod video. I then decided to go against buying it as I spend too much time on the internet as it is because of work. Well after a few months I started seeing that I was getting emails from people on their Iphone and I realised that it might actually help me get away from the desk. I can be sitting having a coffee in a free wi-fi space and do a little work. Getting away from the desk is a rare opportunity. I want to know a few things if you can help out please. Email: I believe the touch can sync with my mac email. Can it sync with Entourage? Or do I need to go back to the original email program which I cant remember the name of right now. Would a switch back to the original program be a real headache? I use my mac for business so if I loose email its a big problem. I also have entourage projects on there. Being able to quickly check emails while I am out and about would be a help because I could answer short ones. This would save me time at the desk. How are people finding this function? Is it easy, convienient? The main workload will be posting in forums. I am a member of many forums, some are for my business. I need to regularly get in there and check if I need to answer questions. What is peoples experience of using it for forums? Is it easy to make posts? I will use it mainly for the living room. I can keep an eye on things without needing to be at my desk as we have WI-FI at home. Out and about town also. So I can quickly check up and see if anyone needs help. You opinions are appreciated and will help decide if i need this gadget or would be better off with something else. I am not keen on heavy monthly payment plans which is why the Ipod touch is attractive at the moment. Thanks Leigh Robinson [/QUOTE]
