Even though the iPod touch wasn’t designed to make phone calls, it may now be possible. People at Yosion have come up with Apple Peel 520. It’s powered by an Infineon baseband chip, and offers voice calling and text messaging services because it has a slot to fit a SIM card into it. You’ll probably need to jailbreak your iPod Touch in order to get the necessary applications in. Not only does the device allow you to make phone calls and send texts, it also doubles as an 800mAh battery that gives your iPod Touch an additional 4 1/2 hours of talk time or 120 hours of standby time. The Apple Peel 520 should be available sometime this week from $44 to $74. Some people are still skeptical about its authenticity though because there isn’t an official website or compatibility list released just yet. Check out a video of the Apple Peel 520 here.
