Rumor Bin: iPod Touch Calendar Add/Edit Ability Fix Incoming?

As it’s known, the Apple iPod Touch, the iPhone-like touchscreen Wi-Fi version of the iPod media players family, is lacking in several features like image syncing, notes, lack of games, disk mode, and the ability to add or edit calendar entries.

Apparently, a MacRumors forum-goer named DavidJearly directly emailed Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO and head-honcho. Although not answering all of David’s questions about the previously mentioned lack of features, he did supposedly make a comment on the calendar features not working correctly as well as reasons as to why there are no games.
