It is possible via third party applications and websites, but in general, you'd just be using a browser or website widet.

It sure is nice to see stuff is going on. Even if it might not be all the most important things.

As a regular Twitter use, this is nice.

And honestly, if you're like me and check the boards once or twice a day, you can see the little updates at the top anyway.

Good call, gang.

Agreed, get very annoying when web surfing with the Ipod touch.

Why would anyone use any Ipod product line device for anything else than throwing it at other people?

At the top, but in a small marquee style scrolling box.  Kind of like a live-news wire thing except with twitter.

Or, at the bottom if that works better.

@ Tallen

lol, when I saw your name I thought, "tall...tallen...hmm...talon?"  Then I actually had to do a Google search to make sure I was spelling "Talon" right.  The first thing that popped up is this: http://www.foster-miller.com/lemming.htm.  A company building the "Talon" series of armored and armed robots.  Basically a remote mini-mech!  Check this thing out:

Totally unrelated, I know, but I thought it was a funny coincidence. =)

What's the big deal? I wrote an external ballistics calculator for Zune a while ago. Not that I have a Zune, but I did get a CD with the SDK so figured, why not? A good friend of mine has one built into his watch. I generally have a ballistic table laminated I keep with each rifle as it's even faster.
