Theres been news that a phone converter for the Ipod Touch was coming from China but most Chinese sites are rather dodgy to say the least, but today Ishopvideogame (http://www.ishopvideogame.com/peel-520-yosion-phone-convert-for-ipod-touch-p-1913.html?ref=131) have announced the Worldwide release of the Peel 520 Yosion phone convert for iPod Touch, heres the details in full:

One thing to note you will need to have jailbroken your ipod touch, but seems as most of the planet already has that wont be a problem.

First Some Screens

The Apple Peel 520 (http://www.ishopvideogame.com/peel-520-yosion-phone-convert-for-ipod-touch-p-1913.html?ref=131)converts the iPod Touch into a working smartphone, adding an 800mAh battery that offers nearly five hours of talk time and 120 hours of standby use, dock connector and SIM card slot to the iPod. Although it takes a 3G sim card, it will not allow for 3G data at this time. It will cost around $60 and early reviews have indicated some issues with the devices software. Updates, release date, and more details to follow as we get them. Check the PR below for the full announcement. it works with the iPhone voice calling and text messaging app, so the iPod touch needs to be jailbroken to allow those iPhone default apps to be installed on the device. The adapter will not automatically add these apps to the iPod touch and users need to do it by themselves.

With these new cases the Yosion's peel 520 will allow you to turn any ipod touch into it!

No one expressly said that the Peel 520 would change your life, but if you play your cards right, that's not entirely out of the question. The mysterious doodad - which wraps around your iPod touch and holds an extended battery and SIM card - has caused quite the stir since being revealed late last month, and now it has undergone a full review overseas. Put simply, the device does work as advertised, turning one's iPod touch into a device fully capable of making/receiving calls as well as texts. 'Course, you'll need to jailbreak your device first, and you`ll have to deal with a static (read: impossible to adjust) call volume, quirky SMS delivery and blanked messages for missed calls, but hey - a small price to pay for the upgrade, right? Hit the "place bid" button to get it now!
