Sad that someone has gone through so much trouble to perpitrate a hoax. The so-called developer is so cowardly he does not even leave a live link to his name as anyone would who wanted to take credit for his work. How evil could anyone be you wonder? You need not wonder because you can read this individuals remarks in the commentary column where he masquerades as other people in order to make negative remarks about Jehovah's Witnesse. How pathetic! He probably thinks he is some kind of genius.
The Jehovah' Witnesses DO NOT at present have a NWT version for the Ipod/Itouch, but only for certain PDA's which are:
Palm TX
Centro
Lifedrive
Palm T5 (with Palm software patch)
Treo 650 (with Palm software patch)
Treo 680
Treo 700p
Treo 755p
Tungsten E
Tungsten
Zire 72
The Tungsten E2 is not compatible.
A memory card is also recommended for your PDA for backup and other eBible features
The New World Translation can be downloaded for these devices at:

Finally, just remember that the bible (all versions)says that wicked men and imposters will advance from bad to worse, misleading and being misled (2Ti 3:13)

It may cause your iPod to turn on by itself at very inconvenient times. Usually early on Saturday morning.

Also, the one man committee that another poster was referring to as having mostly written the NWT, was Fred Franz, at that time pretty much the number two man in the organization, who later became president of the JWs. Interesting to note that on a judicial case in Scotland in the 60s, when he was put on the stand to testify on the side of the JWs, he couldn't read a simple text in Hebrew, thus purgoring himself on the stand. It's a matter of public record, available on-line. It proves that instead of taking the original Hebrew texts, as the JWs claim, he made the translation from other english translations.
So much theology and debate, so little action.
An age-old, but not altogeather unavoidable, problem.

Come on, Charles Taze Russell died before 1920. The translation was first released to the public in portions in 1950. So, you think the guy worked on it while he was dead? If so, follow that religion...
King James? You're kidding, right? OK in its' time, but not a worthy book except for a study of old English.
and the king james version is a good version, (as well as the NKVJ) and it's not in "old english" or whatever...

You gotta remember that many, many others have beliefs that may differ from your own but that does not make those people any less loved by whichever God is ruling these days.

"Actually, most true bible text scholars have praise for the NWT for its crisp rendering of Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic, regardless of the fact that it's published by the WTB&TS."
Who are these scholars? That sounds like what the Jehovah's Witnesses leadership tells its flock so that they feel good about the translation. In fact the opposite is true....the NWT bible is very biased and has changed some of the meaning of what the original texts of the bible were trying to convey, in order to be more in line with what the JWs leadership tells its flock to believe. Tells them? Yes, after all, the JWs fall into the "Cult" classification....oh but wait...they're told that they're not a cult and they're given reasons why they're not. Hmmmm...sounds like they're told how to think and what to think...all the time.
