The carrier has seemingly teamed up with equipment maker ZTE to bring a sled for the iPod Touch, giving the non-cellular MP3 PMP player access to its mobile 3G CDMA/EV-DO data network so iPod Touch owners can have ubiquitous web access on the go, like the iPhone which is currently tied to AT&T’s mobile 3G network. For voice, iPod Touch owners can probably work in a VoIP solution over 3G.

If Sprint can offer an all you can eat data plan for a reasonable price. This could be a very nice addition to anyones mobile outfit. This idea deserves a big cookie.

There is just one problem…the iPod Touch lineup is probably going to get a hardware refresh similar to what the iPhone 4 looks like. I would expect that to be announced in November.
