 Ipod Touch 16G September 24, 2008
The item was as expected, the delivery was on time, I am happy with the results of this transaction.
Apple Ipod Touch September 24, 2008
Great item - Great seller - love it music sounds great, easy to show off pictures at work - worth the money
Pretty decent. September 22, 2008
I actually got this product for free when I purchased my laptop. I use it often and I probably would have bought one for myself eventually. I love the fact that I can listen to streaming radio on my ipod touch. I listen to it all day at work and when I am working on assignments at home. I also like that I can check my e-mail, the weather, and surf the internet. The internet feature came in very handy when I was traveling and my hotel had free wireless internet. The battery life on this unit is pretty good. I was able to listen to my ipod during a 6 hour drive and back, which really impressed me.
So far, I have two complaints about the unit. Some mp3 players have fm radio tuners so I could listen to local radio stations. The ipod touch does not have this feature. My other complaint is that I can't delete songs directly from the Ipod. I have to plug it in to my computer and re-sync to remove songs.
Overall, I am very happy with the Ipod touch. It holds enough music to keep things interesting and the battery life is great! It has a slew of features and extra applications that can be downloaded through the apps store.
Cool and amazing! September 21, 2008
Purchased the 1G, 16GB iPod touch last week, should have purchased the 2G at the same price instead. In any case, I have gone through a bunch of MP3 players including a 40GB unit, but this is my first video player and my first Apple product. And an amazing, cool, powerful product it is, there is nothing like it on the market, at lease for now.
When I first unboxed touch, the user's manual is nowhere to be found so I needed to go online and download Safari and iTunes, intimidating for a PC user. Couldn't use the touch without iTunes, and iTunes wanted a credit card number to register the touch. Steve Jobs is so clever and devious, what a money making machine having access to your credit card at all times. Great if you have AAPL stocks.
iTunes is a little buggy, giving couple of error messages already and seems like having less control than I like relative to other MP3 player interfaces. My CD audio books were interpreted as songs and no way able to get it into the Audiobooks folder, unless it's purchased from iTunes. The maps GPS is not really a real GPS, like the ones for cars. Continuous wi-fi signals are not available along the freeway or even on the streets, so it's useless for real time directions on the go. Nonetheless, the touch GPS is cool and useful in other ways, hope to be updated to a real GPS. If a website require a download like Adobe Flash Player, I don't know how to do it without hacking into the touch and void the warranty. Battery replacement is around $100 by Apple, not a user replacement part. If you still want to do it, about $15 for the non Apple battery, you need to do some surgery, removing many parts and solder the battery leads on the pc board. If you are not careful and not know what you're doing, you just might render the unit useless. Why can't Jobs provide a quick disconnect terminal for the battery, so much easier. Deleting movies from the touch do not reclaim memory, and re sync the touch after deleting does not reclaim memory either, a restore has to be done. To reclaim memory, use delete from iTune via sync, not from touch. Emails are shown only in letter mode, will not rotate to landscape so fonts are small and difficult to read. For older guys like me, email should default in landscape where the fonts could be enlarged without scrolling to the left or right of the screen. As for scrolling, the touch screen is so small and my finger so big, its too easy to touch a hotlink and off you go to another website. Unfortunately stylus doesn't work on this touch screen, just too bad especially you needed to type a lengthy memo. In youtube, the video and text commentaries are gone on the touch. I'm not able to get movies to play on H.264 on any settings, has to be on mpeg4 at 320 width. Anyway, going from my 62" TV to 3.5" touch screen isn't too bad, its just not anywhere close to HD. Forget about reading subtitles, couldn't get it anyway after conversion to Mpag4. Must be doing something wrong, still learning the touch. Don't bother to use touch on a bright day, the screen washed out just like the laptops. Podcasts only play one at a time, than you have to manually start the next one, not a problem unless you are on an active mode like running. The screen is such a smudge magnet needed to clean often and the stainless steel casing is just too soft with a thousand micro scratches accumulated in just a few days. But it looked so cool! For my use, a few movies and bunch of podcasts, could have got away with an 8GB unit and let iTunes swap in and out the files.
Still such an amazing unit pack with so many advanced features. I'm looking forward to use Word and Excel with it and other applications that are already available. The free stuff on iTune is worth the cost of the touch alone. A very strong 5 stars!
iPod is Great and so is Amazon.com September 21, 2008
The Apple iPod Touch lives up to all the good reviews. It's an amazing wireless device...easy to use and a great MP3 and video player. Connecting to the internet is now a finger touch away! But just as amazing is Amazon's service. I had ordered the 1st generation iTouch and when the new version was released two weeks later, I contacted Amazon support about their new lower price. Without hesitation I was refunded the price difference. It's hard to beat a great product and great service. I highly recommend both the Apple iTouch and Amazon.com.
