iPod Touch 1G PHONE sleeve for VoIP

Adam — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 10:21:32 +0000

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
