Yes. Wifi is the only way that the iPod touch can transmit the voice data to the Textnow server to carry the call. With an iPhone, wifi is not required because it can also use the edge or 3G data connections.

How do you get conneted to wi-fi on ipodtouch?

You don't. It is impossible because the iPod nano does not have a WiFi device AND it doesn't have the correct firmware. ok, what the person above said was that it dosent have the wifi capabilities, but it has a cord to connect it to some sory of a wifi antenna, and you can change firmware, and bam you got Google!!! ya it is true you can get wifi by changing your firmware and by purchasing an adapter for wifi but you also have to buy a wifi router or modem they range for about 50-100 dollars and adapters range from 20-200 dollars (depending on the brand) and to get upgraded firmware is ???? i dunno how much frimware costs but make sure you get it from the write company because if you get a unknown brand it can cause your iPod to completely break yeah yeah these are all true but my iPod nano came with the internet. So i dunno there must be summit wrong with my iPod but im not complaining! see yous It ain't an iPod nano then ..... probably iPod touch ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The folks above are 8 year old kids who cant count to 100. Internet access for the iPod could be possible, but hardcore modding would be required. From my experience, only the first 2 Nano generations can run custom firmware so far. A minor firmware mod could write code to access the internet. You would have to write software on BOTH THE COMPUTER AND THE IPOD to get access. The computer would have to be running an application that slightly alters firmware. This would basically just display on the iPod what's going on on the computer. The iPod would need a piece of software to let the computer's application work well. This end would be the part that recieves and configure's the PC's signals.

You will need a service provider if you buy one that supports 3G. In the United States you can get a 3G/Wifi iPad that will work on either AT&T or Verizon. There is also a Wifi only version available, though you will need access to a wireless Internet connection in order to download apps. You may only need a internet service provider if you IPAD 3g/wifi
