For the ipod touch? It's not possible at the moment I don't think. Secondly, I dont think there's a way to get the memory for the ipod touch separate from the board. This tutorial is for ipod 5g or 5.5g, not ipod touch.

@2010ngojo my ipod is 8gb and I put a 16gb memory I can do? (my ipod is 4G)

@giolici0us

The adapter will only work for 5th gen ipod and possibly the 6th gen. SO in short: it's unlikely that it'll work.

@danielRasta100

No, the ipod touch already has flash memory...

[danielRasta100]

this can be for the 4g ipod touch?

[giolici0us]

will this work on iPod first gen?
