Yep, accelerometer only, so should work fine on an iPod Touch.

considering the GPS probably updates once a second, I'd surely hope that isn't used.

That is freakin sweet. This is one more cute little reason for me to complain that my company needs to get me an Iphone, but I'm torn between it and a Blackberry Bold because I do a lot of emailing and I like having actual keys I can feel. Does anyone with an IPhone feel it is comfortable for pretty heavy amounts of typing?

Once you get used to it it's not bad. The autocorrect is pretty intuitive too so you just keep going and don't bother to read and usually you are pretty close to what you meant to type.

Hmmm

Blackberry Bold definitely does not have the awesome sexy features and applications that the iPhone has, but I'm gonna guess I end up with it because the iPhone has a stigma of being a play/entertainment device

Anyone test this out to see how accurate it is?

If it is, then I don't mind spending the $13.

It does get much easier when you get used to it but its still a pain in the ass. As Raj stated, the auto correct is pretty good but overall its still a bitch. Typing a long email can prove to be quite the task
