 should have chosen the nano October 4, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I HATE this iPod! I am frustrated beyond belief. I bought the 16g Touch in april 08 for $369, including the "upgraded software", I see that now it is under $300. I was never able to get the wifi to work, could hardly keep a charge on the battery, then put it down for several months because I was too busy to mess with it or sit down and read the manual. This week I had some time off from work and thought I would get my Touch set up and going. Dang if the screen is now frozen, "slide to unlock" will not respond and I can't even get the stupid thing to turn off. for about 30 seconds I had audio, but then the song started skipping and the stupid thing froze up again. I thought this was "flash drive", I could understand skipping if it was a hard drive. I do not understand what could be wrong, and I don't want to spend another $100 trying to figure it out. I am ready to put it in a drawer, chalk it up to stupidly wanting the latest and greatest from apple, and going back to my little shuffle until I can muster up the courage to purchase another iPod and get the Nano.
VERY DISAPPOINTED, to be sure!
Considering Buying October 4, 2008
I went into the shiny new very modern seeming Apple Store in my mall and played with the 'toys' there. I was admiring the i-Touch in the store and played around with it. I also asked the stores associates, who were very helpful for some advice on it. It was pretty cool and easy to work. I did notice that the virtual key-pad took some getting used to, as I kept hitting the wrong keys. The associate said you had to aim for the left of the button- that worked! I also noticed a feature from Nike for exercise that seemed cool, but learned you have to buy another piece of hardware ($30) and they said it worked best in Nike shoes($125). Next, I went to Apps and saw that most things were around $7.50 and up to download- yikes! My area doesn't have much Wi-Fi around and we have a wired connection, so I wonder if I can enjoy it out so much. A couple of things that I can see would improve it would be if it flipped 'closed' or had a built in case. Also I know it's a cool touch screen, but I wish it could go into a mode with some sort of pointer device too. Overall... It sounds like a fun gadget and my birthday is coming up... so why not?!

The product with 8GB is a very useful tool for everybody who likes to be up to date and entertainent 24 hrs a day. It allows the user to enter the Internet in real-time and use all the internets entertainment and news tools available.
Overall can I only recommend the itouch for everyone who like to be in control of messages, news, music, and all other kind of entertainment.
Love it October 3, 2008
I've had the iPod Touch for about a month. I just took it with me on a business trip and it was magnificent. I was able to keep in touch with my office via e-mail on the Touch; also the e-mail let me see not only the text messages but also attachments; full web browsing for both the conference material and for things to do after hours; I had downloaded various free games to entertain me; I bookmarked links to my travel info; used it as my music player on the plane. It was both an indispensable business tool and a great toy. The App selection is broad and growing daily.
Shortcomings: Very few. Typing with the touch screen keypad is, of course, not as good as a real keyboard - much slower - but the device does compensate by having a fairly robust correction mode - type anything close to the word you want and it auto-corrects to that word. When actively using Wireless, the battery life isn't great. I'd say less than 3 hours of continuous browsing & e-mail, but that's about what you get with a laptop.
Overall, the iPod replaced my laptop for communication purposes and that made me very happy.
