Very weird problem happened to my nephews' iPod Touch (2 of them), they won't join my or my sister's wireless network out of the box. After spending a few hours trouble shooting, including playing with my router, changing various settings and also resetting the iPod Touch's Network setting, NOTHING worked. I did also try using secure and un-secure wireless setting.
And out of nowhere, they both started to work. I did not notice anything different except the battery bar on the upper right hand was grey when it did not work and now it is GREEN when it is working. So, does it have anything to do with the battery indicator...I don't know. If you get the same problem, the solution is ...just wait until the battery indicator turns GREEN.
This is definitely a bug in iOS.
Note:
We did charge both iPod Touch overnight.

Panasonic HX-DC1 14MP HD Dual Camcorder
This is a great camera/camcorder. The best feature has to be the 2 button one for taking picture and one for video. You can take picture while filming. No need to stop and switch mode. However during low light situation, you would need to stop the filming to activate the flash for the picture. The gun like handle make it easier to handle than a normal camcorder with less shaking. It can be charge through USB so you can get a backup USB charger like this one (New Trent I!

) to charge it on the go. While it may not be as good as a specilized SLR camera or a Camcorder but with 2 function in one and for $170, it's a great deal. It available in re/pink, while and gray.
