Tip: Notes on the iPod Touch

11 10 2007

A lot of people are quite upset with the lack of a note taking application on Apple’s new iPod Touch. Indeed, this is correct. At first glance there is no way to take notes on an iPod Touch. However, there is a crazy trick you can do to take all the notes you could ever want and keep them organized. All while using a native iPod Touch application.

The solution is to use the Contacts application. Just create yourself a new contact, use the title of your note as the name of the contact, and then use the notes section to take notes on your new “contact” or… ahem… note.

iPod Touch users now have the ability to purchase an upgrade through iTunes ($20), which includes a notes application (among others). New units will ship with the upgrade.
