717717 2008-11-05 18:56:00 I'm about to buy an ipod touch, and I wanted to know which of its features don't work in NZ? And if I wanted to make use of mobile internet on the ipod touch, what options are there for that in Palmerston North? Lizard (2409)
717718 2008-11-05 19:05:00 As I understand it (read: I think), the wireless internet works over Wi-Fi, and nothing cellular. ubergeek85 (131)

Yea, you would need the iPhone to make use of mobile internet.

717720 2008-11-05 19:21:00 Sorry, wrong terminology. When I said mobile internet, I meant internet that wasn't tied to a fixed phone line. I know wi-fi networks exist at lots of cafe's, etc, but are there nationwide or even city-wide wifi networks that you can subscribe to to make use of the internet on an ipod touch? Lizard (2409)
717721 2008-11-05 21:22:00 Wi-fi on my Touch works fine. Once connected via my home Wi-Fi Web browser, Email, Weather, Maps, YouTube, Stocks all work just fine. Apple Store works when done through iTunes and Wi-Fi.

Web Pages are small in Safari especially with my old worn out eyes.

It will connect to any Public Wi-Fi that a Laptop etc can connect to. It has options to enter Wi-Fi passwords is needed.
