This is a list and comparison of iPhone OS devices designed and marketed by Apple Inc. The iPhone is a multimedia smartphone, while the iPod Touch has no cell phone hardware. The iPad is a multimedia tablet. All three devices function as digital audio and portable media players and Internet clients. They run iPhone OS on their multi-touch screens, which makes it easy to upgrade software, although iPod touch users are usually required to pay for major software upgrades (which tend to be released once a year). Apple upgrades its products' hardware periodically (approximately yearly), and each model is known as a "generation". There have been three generations of both the iPhone and the iPod Touch. The second generation of each is still available at a reduced price. The iPad has not yet been released for sale to the public due to pending [[[edit]Federal Communications Commission|FCC]] approval.
