    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: 32gb of memory.Easy use on Mac/Windows

    Weaknesses:Slow at times

    Overall Evaluation: I personally love the products from mac. I have 5 total iPod's. 3 touches, one of each size. I have a 16gb which I gave my girlfriend as our one year anniversary gift, a 8gb which I gave to a friend and my personal 32gb iTouch. It's personally one of the greatest products I've ever had, and it replaced my HP iPaq. I also have 2 of the older 80gb iPods which I use for DJing

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Nice Interface.

    Weaknesses:Everthing else.

    Overall Evaluation: Picked up one of these babies and coulnt be more disappointed.I really should stay away from 1st generation devices.After initial charging,I connected to to my mac and itunes would not recognize the device(i hear this is a common problem)I went through all the hoops(resetting ipod,reinstalling itunes,changing usb ports,etc.) and after the 3rd reset try it found the device and said please update the software.Well big mistake ! it tries and said it coulnt update but know the ipod touch wont turn on.Its going back and ill wait for further generations.Other observations:Wifi strength is very weak and unstable at long range.My Nokia N800 has much better range.Would not recommend for those with larger houses. Anything past 50 ft is asking too much for this device.I founf the web surfing to be rather slow at 50 feet ,much slower than my nokia n800 or my dell pda.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Coverflow intuitiveness; design; functionality; super computer in a slab of metal; omits the crappy phone part

    Weaknesses:Bluetooth and a camera - non-phone users still want to take pictures and exchange files; only 32gb tops...for now

    Overall Evaluation: I am a music junkie. I hate scroll wheels because my music collection is well taken care of (LAME MP3 3.97 VBR 4), imbedded album art -- I am browsing through pictures rather than text files. I am busy.Those statements alone define why this is the first iPod that I haven't got from the refurb store. The Nano was a iPod I could live with because of the technology - namely nike tech. When the Touch got the coverflow interface, I immediately latched on to that same kind of software ingenuity that so pervades the Apple culture. It was a love letter to people who are like me - who know their collections. I love album art and the apple touch acknowledges me. The design is very industrial and it will age well. The touchscreen haptics trumps the scroll wheel because I like to interact with my music. It's already affecting me through hearing and adding just the slight sensation of touch might seem minor in theory but so much more immersive in practice. With the SDK out soon, I know I will get marvelous programs that have been fetted by an apple review. Anything I want in addition to the core components will be there- an open platform for everyone. Finally, I love my phones to be separate. When phone tech gets to the level of Asia, then I will get a iPhone. Everything right now is too slow - EDGE included.Where is the bluetooth and camera? Bluetooth is needed so i can stream my music wirelessly and camera is such a great opportunity to tie in the iLife features. Just give me a little flash and some megapixels. Hopefully when apple release the nano iPhone, it can add these features to the touch. The size might also be a point of contention for some. It's big enough to bring my favorites but not everything but I'm one of the few that likes limit. Again this is where the practicality of technology improvements will soon solve.This is the first iPod that made me smile again. I don't care much about the video function but I love the speed of the flash disk and coverflow. That alone made this a day one purchase and a sign that Apple is getting it and not being complacent with success.
