Now this is very cool for them (and far cooler than the last-gen nano that came with my MacBook Pro last year) but the sudden arrival of a bunch of new wireless handheld devices has us scrambling a bit. Will the wireless network accommodate them (short answer: yes, with plenty of room to spare). Will our web applications work with them? (probably).

Fortunately, we got an iPod Touch in the office for testing purposes, and I’ll be firing that puppy up ASAP to make sure everything’s working the way it should.
