From Erictric:Here’s some interesting information with regard to Apple’s iPod Touch 4G, due to be released in the middle of next week. According to Apple’s website, it would appear as if the iPod Touch 4G will be equipped with vibrating functionality.
Specifically, the website notes that when one user initiates a FaceTime call, the recipient of the invitation will receive a text notice and will also receive a “vibrating alert”.
Apple has always intended FaceTime to be used by the deaf community:
On June 7, 2010 Apple announced FaceTime, a new application for the newly announced iPhone 4 that will let iPhone 4 owners chat with one another using video chat. It requires that both iPhone 4 users are on a WiFi network and won't run over 3G just yet. However, Apple did point out some of its compelling uses, such as allowing two deaf people to communicate using sign language. The service can use either the iPhone 4's forward facing camera, or its 5 megapixel rear one.
