iPod Touch 1G PHONE sleeve for VoIP

Mar 25th, 200923 Comments


This is an idea that Jason came up with and submitted it to Touchmods. The folks over at www.mangodoo.net are working on making this come to life and hope to have them ready in January of 2009.
Here is their site where they feature this info:

They also have a few other interesting things on their agenda in the future.

So I take no credit for this idea, I simply have been working on making my own for quite some time now and I’ve finally come up with a pretty solid prototype.

I used the plastic piece that comes in the box with your ipod touch, its the plastic piece that your ipod sits on and has a hole in the middle that shows “ipod 16GB” or whatever, I cut it to size, and taped the wiring on the back along with my speaker.
The first application I used was SiP VoIP.app.
The phone application where I accessed my contacts was Siphon.app. Both of these applications are available through installer (not the new Siphon App Store) and were created by Touchmods.

Sip VoiP seems to come out louder through my speaker but I just realized that Siphon also works through my speaker.
Thanks

    dude one question…do you need to put a simcard inside the ipod touch?…..how do you know what your number is?

  11. darrellsom says:

    what ear phones though please tell me anyone asap

  12. skeetrosauce says:

    I would but I dont have another plastic piece to use. I only had the one that came in the box with my ipod.
    I cut it to shape (roughly) and then ran the cables on the back, then covered them with tape. Luckily I had some wire slack that I use to secure my device in place.
    I had a speaker I got from an old cell phone which is a lot smaller but I ruined so I used this speaker from an old pair of headphones.
    Volume control thing came from a Grifin Smartshare headphone splitter.
    Thanks 4 watching
