Gizmodo:

According to support discussions and their own description pages, Apple has removed the ability to add events in the iPod touch’s calendar.

After apparently pulling Bluetooth functionality at the last second, it seems like Apple is trying to further create distinctions between the two devices, positioning the iPhone as a productivity platform and Touch as an entertainment device.

That’s what you get when your product lineup doesn’t make sense. The really weird part, though, is that the updated description still mentions “adding new contacts,” and when you’re trying to differentiate a device from a phone it seems that the contacts application is a much better candidate for feature removal than the calendar. But, hey, that’s just me, and I wouldn’t have launched the iPod touch at all anyway, so what do I know.

We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
