Can't really create an account on the iPod, you can add it to the mail application but cannot create it. You'll also need help dealing with the capcha...
Now that I think about it you might be able to do it, through the mobile website through Safari on the iPod, but you will need a phone number to text too. That's part of the creation process in the mobile version, they will text you a Code and you have to enter it to continue. It's either that or a link don't remember which.
