(not the iPhone) With the Apple iPod touch, Apple has married the iPhone's revolutionary multi-touch interface to their popular digital media player. So instead of a Click Wheel, you just use your fingers to flick through your music, photos, and video. Two fingers can be used in a pinching or spreading motion as well, which zooms in and out of photos and web pages. That's right, the iPod touch is the first iPod to offer web access. It does this via built-in Wi-Fi support. There's even a special iTunes Wi-Fi Store, so you can browse and purchase new music and video while you're on the road. The latest iPod touch now offers a suite of new applications, including email, maps, and handy widgets for weather, notes, and stocks. The new iPod touch also features a customizable home screen that lets you rearrange buttons and create your own Web Clips.

3 out of 5 stars Refubished iPod - Scratches   July 20, 2008
The seller was prompt and helpful when contacted about arranging an alternate shipping address. The actual iPod touch had quite a few significant scratches on the back. This was pretty annoying because the seller had advertised the product with a 'Like New' description. I personally don't think that a little used product should be considerably scratched. The price asked, $289 was however, significantly below the actual $400 price, so I am quite happy with my product on the whole.


5 out of 5 stars Greatest Ipod Ever!!!   July 19, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I purchased this product late April, and i just updated it for the 2.0 iphone software update, and its just great... you can play now great games and has a bunch of free applications available on the itunes store, amazon has a great deal on this ipod touch, because if you want to buy it on a retailer store, the price is 325.00 dlls with tax and the gas money for the car that you are driving, etc...

Buy it in Amazon!!!



5 out of 5 stars Amazing!   July 19, 2008
I purchased this model late Tuesday night and was able to get a $10 discount and free super saver shipping. I knew that the super saver shipping would delay me having the Ipod in my hand but Amazon has been terrific when it comes to shipping. Sure enough, the expected arrival date was between July 28th-August 1st. I recieved it today. Not bad with free shipping and it ended up arriving 3 full days after I ordered it. Much to my amazement also, when I ordered my ipod touch, the next day the price dropped.

This is an amazing piece of harware. The picture is outstanding, the sounds are amazing, and the new programs on it are something special. I was aware that version 2.0 came out and I wasn't expecting my ipod touch to have it. It would depend on when Apple ships out the Ipod touch with the new software upgrade. Many people were complaining that they didn't get the software upgrade they were expecting- 2.0. Please be aware that it all depends on what the supplier has. In Amazon's case, they probably still have the 1.1's. I haven't seen any reviewer say that they just bought their Ipod touch and it has version 2.0. If you went to Apple's website, possibly you would be able to buy an Ipod touch with the new software upgrade but I'm betting that the price will be somewhat higher. Amazon had the lowest price and my Ipod works like a charm.

Out of the box, it was easy to set up. Itunes was a little slow to install but I think that it's just my anti-virus software that is holding things up. Very annoying! Setting up an itunes account was easy and synchonizing my ipod was a sinch. The touch screen is very sleek and responds gently to your touch. Going through all the programs that are pre-loaded is easy. As I said before, the picture quality is amazing. Wi-Fi is a very nice inclusion and the ability to check your email is fantastic. My wife and I love to eat at Panera Bread which has Wi-Fi. The only minus is that the metal underneath the nice screen easily can be covered with fingerprints. This might drive some people crazy, as for me, I just grunt or shrug my shoulders. The box does come with a cloth so; no problem!

It is true that the Ipod touch is the most expensive out of all MP3 players but it's very sleek, easy to handle, easy to download songs on, and for anyone who likes to surf the internet or check their email; this is an outstanding product. I have a lot of cd's and time and time again they get scratched and repeat or don't play at all. It's time for me to put my cd's on my Ipod ( I did a few; it's easy!). I also bought this in preperation for my new car that has Microsoft Sync with an MP3 player jack. Enjoy!



5 out of 5 stars Excellent: Much better than getting an iPhone   July 18, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is better than the iPhone. First of all, it is thinner and more solid feeling in the hand than the iPhone. Second, it has all the features of the iPhone except the camera and PDA features. Both of those problems are solved by getting a dedicated phone that #1) probably has a better camera (with flash) and #2) has better customization options as well as better phone functionality. Call me old fashioned, but the virtual number keypad isn't my cup of tea. The solution for the PDA features is pretty obvious; a laptop. Obvious, isn't it? Who doesn't carry a laptop to work these days? Every young professional who is well-connected has the same setup. I work in New York City and pretty much all my co-workers and I have a solid featured phone with decent camera (I have a Nokia N82 - 5.0MP camera with xenon flash), an ultramobile laptop, and an iPod of some type. Well, since the main criticisms of the iPod touch - mainly that it is a lame-duck version of the iPhone (which is complete garbage) have been addressed, the only fact that remains is that it is by far the most attractive and feature packed media player on the market. Perfect for listening to music and entertaining oneself on subway or in flights.

Are people getting so lazy nowadays that they can't carry around a dedicated media player and a phone? Even if that phone happens to feature far superior phone features and camera? I have some friends who have gotten the iPhone and those who do all envy my current configuration. The only reason why I'd recommend someone to get the iPhone over the iPod touch is if they are on a pretty thin budget and need a PDA because they can't afford an ultramobile laptop like an IBM or XPS M1330 and a decent phone with a nice camera. Just my 5 cents. I absolutely love this iPod touch and it fills my needs exactly what I purchased it for; to entertain me during extended down times ie. flights, train, and so on.



1 out of 5 stars Jack of All Trades and Master of Nothing   July 18, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have been using a very tired, beat up, and abused 3rd gen iPod for years now... Because it works. The thing is absolutely bulletproof. I bought the iPod touch hoping to have the same results plus You Tube, Safari, etc. But the Wifi is so unreliable that the apps only serve as a constant reminder of what you would like to have but can't.

So, the old lesson is learned again. Reliability beats cool looks every time.

The iPod touch will go on the shelf, and I'll dig out the 3rd gen and keep using it until it dies.
Save your money on this one - something more reliable will come along someday.
