  Duration of ownership:3 Months

  Strengths: Apple Earphones included, High Storage Capacity, Lightweight, Sleek & Stylish

  Weaknesses: It's a bit pricey!

  Overall Evaluation: This is an absolute MUST for everyone looking to get a new MP3 Player! ...BUT, the price is a little to high in my opinion, I never would have got one if I never got mine for FREE!. Luckily a friend recommended this website to me before I went and bought one: **- www.justgetitfree.com - ** . I checked out the website, completed ONE simple offer and met the requirements to receive one for FREE, it arrived a month later in the post! It was also shown on BBC and CNN news!!

  Strengths: WiFi and internet, touch screen, small and very protable, it is just awesome

  Weaknesses: not iphone (barely)

  Overall Evaluation: The ipod touch is an great tool for portable internet, music, video, and games. though it does not come with many programs, it is easy to jailbreak and once this is done you can have access to anything you want including the iphone apps for free. i highly suggest jailbreaking it though because doing this turns an expensive ipod into a very useful pda. you can even make phone calls with it :)

  Strengths: Sound quality is amazing!

  Weaknesses: It is not a PDA...

  Overall Evaluation: This is the ultimate iPod, and a must-buy for music lovers. I absolutely love it; what a great product. The touchscreen works very well. The scrolling and 'pinching' features are really cool. The other features such as Calendar, Contacts, and Photos work great. Overall, this is an amazing device, which indeed make your life more fun!

  Strengths: Touch-screen interface, good itunes software

  Weaknesses: Apple charging for simple upgrades, lack of common play buttons.

  Overall Evaluation: It's nice to see something new and actually different in MP3 players, rather than the same old with a different case. The iPod Touch is a very nice device and playing music on it is a breeze. I would still prefer not to have to go through itunes for my music, since I am not a big album collector, but iTunes is much better than competitor offerings I've used. It actually does a nice job managing your music.My only complaints are how Apple is charging for simple upgrades that come out afterwards. It seems pretty petty to charge for some software, especially since it should have been available from the beginning as evidenced by it being free on new ones. It's really shady business practices from such a respected company.The other complaint is the lack of even common play buttons on the case, like pause and volume. It almost means you HAVE to buy a remote of some kind if you're going to use it while walking. Otherwise you'd have to look at the screen to do anything, even simple volume management. This wouldn't be a problem if it came with a decent remote, but not only does it not, but there are slim pickings currently out there for third-party remotes compatible with this style of iPod. Apple really should get something put out to complete this wonderful device.

  Strengths: Compact, large screen, simple control.

  Weaknesses: MEMORY!

  Overall Evaluation: I had an 8 gig Nano 3G right before I got this Touch. No Comparison! There are feature differences, but the huge, crisp screen makes up for the lack of mechanical controls.I see the beef about the thing being so proprietary...and how Apple charges for every little thing. I just use it for music and video, and convert them myself, so I didn't care about the programs, or "jailbreaking". I used a PSP with wifi and it was nearly pointless. This iTouch does the web with such ease, I am selling my laptop!Yes, I call it iTouch...sounds better than iPod Touch. Some geeks are so touchy... ;)And if anyone wants to impress me with a hack, in a year or so show me a pic tutorial on how to change the flash drive hardware for the bigger 2G stuff!10 out of 10 for all factors, go get one.

  Strengths: Touch screen interface is really cool and awesome. Itunes is great for sorting music as far as music software goes.

  Weaknesses: Expensive for the capacity, Apple nickel-and-dimes users by charging for every upgrade that should have been free to begin with.

  Overall Evaluation: The Ipod Touch is my first Ipod and I'm very happy with it. It still has some drawbacks but nothing compared to most other MP3 players. Itunes is actually very good software for sorting and synching music, but I still would rather be able to drag and drop instead of having to use software just to transfer music. It feels very controlling of Apple.It is also annoying how Apple tries to sell you every thing imaginable through iTunes but I guess it's understandable.The fiasco with the "upgrade" costing $20 is pretty indefensible and no other company gets away with nickel-and-diming customers for stuff that should have been there to begin with, like Apple. Other companies would get drilled for this behaviour.On the plus side, the capacity is just fine for my needs and I listen to some large radio shows. The touch interface is just awesome and needs to be experienced to truly appreciate. It makes sorting and playing music easier than anything else. Wifi is pretty nice too, where available, and the way the browser zooms and pans is really a milestone compared to other devices that do mobile Internet like the awful Blackberry.

  Strengths: Wi-Fi, capacity for music - mp3 files, clarity of display, Safari, touch screen resizing, thin/small

  Weaknesses: I researched this purchase extensively but nobody mentioned the numerous weaknesses I have outlined below. If I had known, I would not have purchased this device. Refund without stocking fee anyone???

  Overall Evaluation: Features I would like to see added: 1. TV out support for free vice $100+ for additional "optional" equipment. 2. Wi-Fi - wireless synching. 3. Hard drive like capability like all other iPods. 4. Open source code access. 5. Software and game development access other than Apple. 6. Zune like sharing between iPods. 7. Ability to create playlists on the iPod itself. 8. Ability to delete viewed video directly from the iPod. 9. Capability to delete music directly from the iPod. 10. iPod connection via existing port to external storage devices. Right now iPod touch is hardware and software capability locked. Steve Jobs / Apple should open this device to innovative development and ideas......... ________________________________________________ Pre-MWSF08 iPod touch owners must pay $20 for Mail, Stocks, Weather, Notes, and Maps. Those who have purchased in the past 14 days have the option to return and repurchase the touch from a retail Apple Store, however, the 10% restocking fee will apply, costing a minimum of $29.90 for the touch. Apple tightly controls applications running on iPod touch via iTunes, hence, limited games and useful software. To jailbreak your iPod touch you will need software version 1.11 on your iPod touch. If you have version 1.12 you will need to downgrade for the jailbreak to work.1.13 cannot be downgraded! Items synced to desktop Calendar and contact functions cannot be deleted and no items can be added. Useless as a PIM. I knew about the limited memory for the price ratio but a USB connection for thumb drive reading would have been nice. You are paying a premium for 1st generation use as Apple does not like to offer backward support/upgrades. iTunes web site is geared towards selling you stuff like music, movies, and accessories. Weak web site support for iPod touch. The shiny chrome back side scratches too easily. IPod touch is too simple, as it lacks a hardware volume switch, integrated speaker, or any really useful apps. Limited to .mp4 format only. I now feel my wallet is attached to Apple via a vacuum hose as every single item costs on top of dropping $399 plus tax on the iPod touch. Recommend you wait for 3rd generation device or buy a wi-fi Archos 605 with SD port instead for $273.Now there's a 2nd generation 32MB unit, wait for Generation 5 as it will be faster, cheaper, etc.

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: very thin, big screen

  Weaknesses: no camera and speakers

  Overall Evaluation: This new device should be viewed as an iPod and not be compared with the iPhone. Is everything you need from an iPod and much more. The system is intuitive and it took me just few minutes to upload music from my computer? library to the Touch. To upload videos from your own computer you need to convert the files into iPod MP4 or H264 format (Windows). I used Cucusoft and seem to work great. The Wi-Fi feature is really useful and you can browse online anywhere you can find a wireless connection. The Touch is actual thinner than the iPhone and have also a video out, compared to the iPhone's lack of it. On the other hand, if you have an iPhone and thinking of buying a Touch you will find some downsides: no speakers, can?t make calendar entries and the LCD appears a little darker. Overall I like my Touch though is little pricy.
