[musictlk] ipod touch

[Cameron Strife]

Hi. Yes, you can use Seeri, the voice activated assistant, to do that
among many other things, however, please keep in mind that with the
iPod touch, just like with the yFI only iPad models, you need to be
connected to a wireless network before you can use Seerie.

Cameron.
