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

Posted by Patrick on October 9th, 2007 at 10:19pm

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. Here shown is the email:

David,

Nothing can be done about the games. The new iPod touch is a completely different animal inside than the old iPods and the games just don’t translate. The inability to edit and add calendar events is a bug that will be fixed in a future software update.

Best,
Steve

When launched, the iPod Touch had the ability to add and edit calendar entries as a feature, but it was removed as soon as the public brought up the fact that it didn’t work. Since this is apparently classified as a bug, it looks as though it will be fixed, according to Mr. Jobs. If you thought it was odd that he directly replied to an email, he’s said to have responded occasionally to emails directly addressed to him.
