Are there parental controls? Does the IPOD touch's web browser (Safari) have parental controls?

WOW, I have to say that is the best question I have seen about this device. The answer is unfortunately no. There is definitely a way if you are willing to jailbreak the application and write your own parental control widget. But there is no software that you can install to control what your child can do on the device, including browsing to questionable material. I would not be surprised if somebody is already working on such an applet to sell at the applications store. For now though, I haven't seen anything like that.

Yes. I have an older iPod and my daughter has a touch. We both hook up to it.

They can text to other ipod users using the installed imessage app. There are also some great free apps (if they are careful) to download. My son used pinger, he can even send images thru it.

Yes you can access the Internet on this Tablet. It even allows a parent to control the websites a kid can visit.

There is internet if you have wifi, and there are parental settings that can be placed on it with a passcode

No and I also recommend that you do not purchase this product. It is extremely fragile. My niece dropped hers once and it shattered. Also to upload videos and music takes forever. The functionality of the touchscreen is very glitchy. WARNING--Purchase @ your own risk!!!

Hi Rand,They are correct that you can do this with parental control. You could use Cloud to either do it using Parental Control or the MAC filtering feature.You can watch this presentation on how to setup Parental Control on the routerhttp://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid;=ad9d20eec1e3405c81bc79aab268bffd_Setting_up_Parental_Controls_using_Cisco_Connect_Cloud__Vide.xml&pid;=80&respid;=0&snid=4&dispid;=0&cpage;=searchThanks,Cisco-Linksys Supporthttp://homesupport.cisco.com

You can tinker with a bit in parental settings, but it does not get much louder...much depends on the app you're running how loud it will get.

With the iPod Touch you don't have to do anything to set it up and it doesn't cost anything. It will connect anywhere there is wireless internet as long as it is open or if you have the password to a secure connection. With ours, if we get on it at home we have to type in our password but if you are somewhere that offers Wi-Fi like at a fast food restaurant, all you need to do is open the internet on your iPod and it will come right up. Hope this helps!

Yes, the Apple iPod Touch 16gb 4th generation has WIFI capability. I use this feature while at home and anywhere there is a Free WIFI source.

you may have to download some apps for filter or parental control things for your child...

I don't know about an Ipod/Iphone as I have nether but I have a flash drive in both and I can switch between each and listen to their content.

My oldest child figured out how to bypass my "Safe Browser" and parental controls for internet usage. I have one of these as the safety net. There is no on screen display or notification that the key logger is in place.

Yes, there is a square plastic window where the iPod screen is. The round control area is open. Hope this helps.

Yes there is a volume control. You can use that as well as your ipod to control the volume. When you reach the highest volume on it, it well give you a double beep. I usually crank it to the highest level and then use my ipod to control the volume. It really is a neat little item, - I don't think you would be disappointed. I use mine in the bathroom alot while showering and can hear it well enough with the glass shower door closed.

No it isnt just for kids..we have a blast with it. You dont need an ipod to use it...it plays regular cds as well as cd+g cds (which is usually what karaoke cds are formatted as)
