During a question and answer session following today's iPhone Software Roadmap event, a press member asked about the possibility of a VoIP (voice-over-IP) application for the iPhone. Steve Jobs left the door wide open, saying that while Apple wouldn't allow such an application to access the cellular network, VoIP is certainly a possibility over WiFi.

Wow. This opens the possibility of purchasing a 32Gb iPhone-like (really, an iPod Touch) for the price of a 16 GB iPhone.

That is why iPod Touch is not going to have a microphone...

No, it doesn't since the iPod Touch doesn't have a microphone and there are no plans for one to be added via peripherals.
