Introduced in September 2007, the iPod touch was the iPhone without the phone (or the camera, or bluetooth). In other respects, the hardware was virtually identical to the iPhone, and it used the same Operating System. Because it lacked a cellular phone chipset—which adds to both overall cost and power consumption—the iPod touch was significantly slimmer than the iPhone, and offered double the storage capacity, for considerably less money. The iPod touch was available in two models: an 8GB model sold for $299, and a 16 GB model sold for $399. In February 2008, a 32 GB model was added for $499.
