iPod touch for iPhone development

Question

I am thinking about buying an iPod touch to make some money on developing apps for the iPhone. I like the concept of the App Store and had a quick look at it with iTunes. Lo

Answer 1

I currently use an iPod Touch for testing in development, but my application doesn't (currently) use any of the iPhone-only features (such as GPS or the camera).

Other than the hardware differences, the OS is the same, and the iPhone comes with a monthly fee from the cellphone carrier.

In the AppStore, you can mark your application as iPhone Only or iPod & iPhone. If you application needs detailed GPS, photo taking capability, etc you'll make it as iPhone only.

There is no way to set separate pricing for an app based on whether the user has an iPod or iPhone, unless you release two separate versions of the application.
