Product Description
Apple?s new iPod touch packs more features into a sleeker design and feels even better in your hand! The iPod touch has a revolutionary touch interface and has been designed to let you control everything using your fingertips. The iPod touch responds to motion using a built-in accelerometer, so you can immediately see the entire width of a web page, view a photo in full, or control a game using only your movements. You can browse over and download loads of games and applications in almost every category at the Apple Store on iTunes or right on your iPod, and rock while you run with the built-in Nike + iPod support. The iPod touch no longer plays just music; it also keeps a record of your workout performances, tracking your time, distance and calories burnt thanks to the sensor that you slip into your shoe. The new iPod touch?s body is stunningly thin and made of polished stainless steel for a more comfortable grip, and volume controls have been built into the left side to give you easy access to the most frequently used settings. Plus, the iPod touch is equipped with a built-in speaker that lets you hear music, dialogues and action without headphones, ideal for casual listening, and an astonishing battery life for up to 36 hours of non-stop music and 6 hours of video playback. A new Genius feature has also been integrated into the iPod touch, allowing you to create your very own multimedia library and music mixes. Music and videos on the iPod touch not only sound amazing; they look amazing, too.

 Lovin' It January 7, 2009
I am lovin' it, lovin' it, lovin' it, the design is sleek, chic etc. You do need an i-tunes account before you can sync in your i-pod, very easy to sync into i-tunes. You also need wi-fi access to download any applications, it easy to connect to a wireless network and download the applications I now have 'Facebook' and a radio application, I can now listen to Galaxy, Choice FM, Capital and a couple more that I can't remember.
The only downside is the high gloss finish of the i-pod as soon as you touch it you leave fingerprints on it and I am always wiping it, I am investing in a cover for it so hopefully that will elavate this issue. Don't let it put you off though, it is still worth buying and I would still recommend this item to family and friends.
Overall I am very impressed with my i-pod it never leaves side.
Queen of iPods January 3, 2009
I bit the bullet and bought the 16gb iPod touch which arrived last week. I am a bit of a gadget freak so it was unsurprising that I would eventually buy myself this new addition to the iPod family and am I thrilled? YES! I am. Now wondering what to do with the Blackberry. Since I spend time overseas the idea of having free email and internet access was a huge plus but then having pretty much all my music on tap and being able to access the Apple store whilst on the move pretty much clinched it for me. If there is one small almost insignificant gripe it would be that the 'Genius' facility tends to work best if your musical taste is less diverse than mine. When I pick a song, my Genius fails to compile a playlist because of a lack of similar tracks...aside from that, buy one, it's fab!
 great product shame about Apple's in-built obsolescence January 2, 2009

What it can do is amazing (well if you have wireless broadband - its not for roaming!)
What it cant do though tells more about its parent company and they're lack of regard for customers. Like the fact that if you have a charging dock/ car-charger/ foreign adaptor or even they're own Apple Speaker(!!) from a previous Ipod, dont be fooled into thinking you'll be able to use any of these devices to charge the battery. No, they've quietly got rid of firewire 12v charging and moved to USB 5v charging only with this model.
And on that note they're products are designed to last 2 years and a day before dying and the need to visit an expensive Apple Service centre - let me see I've got through 3 ipods, an Imac and an Airport from these guys, and while yeah, you'll probably want to upgrade anyways in two years, in-built obsolescence is surely now part of their plan for world domination, its not like anything they build is user-sevicable!!
Grrr
a great gadget December 31, 2008
my old 2nd gen nano was begining to show it's age with shortening battery life and almost full memory, so i decided to replace it. of course i went straight to ipods, because i wouldn't choose anything else after the years of faithful service from my nano. i spoke to a friend about what one i should choose, and he had one of these, i tried it and i liked it, that is what made me make my decision.
well, what can i say, it's a fantastic product, made by apple, which means all the usual things, it only syncs from itunes, and it is quite expensive, however, it does come with the traditional apple selling points, it looks great, and the controls are very intuitive. aswell as this the cover flow is a cool feature that has been included. there is also browsing and google maps via a wi-fi connection.
now the device it's self. the device has a multi-touch display, which allows it to recognise more than one finger touching its screen. the "menu" button from the click wheel is now the small white square below the screen. the volume is now controlled by a switch on the side or via the screen by dragging a button across the bottom of the music screen, similar to how it was done on previous ipods, but without the wheel, play/pause, forward, and rewind are control on the music screen like volume. there is also a small speaker in the device, which, for a device of its size is good, aslong as the volume isn't to high the sound quality from the speaker is reasonable.
if i do have one complain it is that the screen becomes very dirty with finger prints etc very easily, but apple seem to have thought of this and have included a cleaning cloth.
Thank you Amazon December 31, 2008

I ordered this product on the 30th of December 2008 using the free delivery option and it arrived on the 31st at 09:30......Bloody Hell well done Amazon.
This is a Birthday present for my Daughter so can't review the product, but she really, really wants this and has been helping around the house and has been the most polite and lovely (although she mostly is anyway) for over a month.
So, well done Amazon and well done Apple.
