Regarding the Idea of an iPod Touch ‘3G’ as Apple’s Low-Cost iPhone

The Verge forums, “Crunkfish” makes a suggestion that I see on Twitter and in my email frequently: that Apple should make an iPod Touch with cellular networking.

It’s a fine idea, but without carrier support it wouldn’t work, and I don’t think any major carrier would support it. Data-only connections and VOIP for all “phone calls” are surely the future, but they are not the present.
