As the devices run the same operating system and applications, they are quite similar in functionality. The iPod Touch is essentially an iPhone minus the telephone functionality, and any other functionality which requires a SIM Card - whilst the iPad can be described as a larger tablet version of the iPod Touch. More expensive versions of the iPad, however, have 3G mobile Internet functionality.

While all applications designed for iOS run on all devices, many applications are released in an 'HD version' optimised for the iPad. These iPad versions of applications are often more expensive than the iPhone and iPod Touch version. Recently, however, many developers are moving to developing 'universal apps', which use hardware detection to determine which device to optimise for.
