 product worth value!! June 2, 2008

All the good things are same as covered earlier, but the new things that I want to add is -
(i) I tried and tested a couple of custom cables for viewing videos on TV, but it finally worked with Apple' original av cables only.
(ii) Also earlier if the wifi was switched on, and if your itouch was in sleep mode for entire night, then by morning time battery used to drained out, but this is no more true...your battery stays intact during sleep time!
Also purchased this case DLO HipCase Leather Folio for iPod touch (Black) from amazon.com, which fits perfectly.
Great product - but still needs a little work June 2, 2008

Well my 5G "iPod with video" finally gave out after 3 strong years so I decided to take advantage of Apple's 10% trade in deal and purchased the 8gb iPod Touch.
After spending about a week using the product I find that I am very pleased overall. There are so many improvements and new features with the Touch that it's difficult to list them all so I'll keep it to a few:
- The screen is huge and the resolution makes it absolutely gorgeous; displaying both album artwork and music videos is a sight to be seen. Very clean, very crisp picture.
- Menu system is very easy to use and navigate in and out of. At any point you can exit to the main screen with a simple touch. Forget having to press 'menu' 5 times like in previous generations.
- The WiFi feature is great and will automatically display found networks. This honestly is the single best reason for purchasing the device. I love being able to connect on the go.
Some places where improvement is needed:
- Simple things like turning up the volume are actually more difficult - especially true when driving. Instead of feeling your way with the click wheel you now have to look down at the device and move the slider for volume. In my experience I've had mixed results as usually I'm using my thumb to adjust the volume; just as often I've either paused or skipped to the next song on accident.
- The included USB 2.0 cable is a more compact design on the iPod data link side. For some reason Apple ditched the quick release tabs and now its somewhat difficult to disengage the cable. Not a big deal but annoying.
- The on screen keyboard is nice but can be difficult to use if you have larger fingers.
- Better integration with very common formats like WMA for media and .pdf are needed!!
- We need a built-in FM receiver. Seriously, this has been an option on the competition for years!
All in all I am very satisfied. I expect that anyone familiar with Apple products will find that they like the product. I also expect that considering my iPod Touch has flash memory instead of a HDD that longevity will be significantly improved.

Ok, well... the product was amazing,as expected, in full working order original packaging, and not a thing wrong with it.(that is the most important part, I was very pleased when it came) And, although it took a while to get the shipping started, leaving me with my accesories empty, but I would rather have slow shiping and a good product then it come the next day all banged up. I would trust this provider again.
Best media player around! June 1, 2008

The iPod touch is by far the most advnced, easy to use, and enjoyable mp3 player on the market. It not only plays music flawlessly, but the extras like internet connection, email, photos, and movies make this an incredibly useful gadget.

Recieved the ipod touch for my birthday and was and still am very pleased with the device. I really love the wi-fi connectivity, though certain plug ins like flash and the like don't work in the browser... yet anyway, so in line videos for example don't work on websites from my experience.
I'm a newbee to itunes with regards to databasing pod casts and such, so I am having problems sorting out my pod casts because they don't show up directly in the podcast link on the "ipod touch's" music section. I ended up creating a playlist for my pod casts.
You can get additional features like facebook. Typing on the screen is a learning process, but I like the editing feature where moving your finger around text shows a magnifying glass of your text enlarged. I wish some alternate keys like commas were directly accessable, but it's a learning curve.
Videos on the unit are really great but I think your arm will get sore holding the unit up in front of your face while you watch it. The little acrylic stand is cool, but not always practical for watching. (like lying in a tent, or reclining in bed.)
Having an i-pod compatable stereo really makes this unit shine as opposed to always having it playing directly in your ear.
In all, I'm still loving it well after a month of ownership.
