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.

good but getting better November 22, 2008 Tim Robinson (uk) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
this is a great product, has some issues, which are well described in other posts. However if you are looking to load a lot of content you may want to look at the higher capacity device. Also if you want to get money back on your shopping in amazon then register and link through pigsback.com.
Amazing at everything, except actually playing music November 16, 2008 skyhaler 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
I was extremely impressed with the new ipod touch (having upgraded from a 3rd gen ipod) until I heard the sound quality on the thing! It is markedly worse than any other mp3 player I've ever listened to, also the volume is fairly soft (but I think that's more to do with the EU directive than anything else). The interface, battery life, internet access, youtube... basically everything else is top notch, nothing else can compare to it. So if you're looking for an overall multimedia device then get the ipod touch, but if you pride yourself as an audiophile, please test it out in the apple store first before buying.
Impressed October 28, 2008 Giraffe (UK) 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
After lots of consideration I decided to replace my old creative zen with this ipod touch. The decision was hard because reviews seemed mixed. Competitor's products come with FM radio and inbuilt microphone - I used both on my Creative Zen but they are extras for the itouch. So why did I go for the ipod touch in the end? I think it was partly the volume of sales - they are one of the best marketed products out there but this means that other companies are falling over themselves to sell things that complement the ipod. From little speaker sets to car stereos the options are endless for an ipod but far fewer for anything else. In a way this made me a reluctant convert...until I actually bought one. This was one gamble that paid off. The user interface and the attention to detail are superb. I was cautious about the restrictions on customisation that I expected. There are some - you have to use the official Applications Store but the range of add-ons is quite big and I could find most of what I was looking for - some invaluable, others frivolous but fun. Sound quality is fine although I haven't tried the headphones provided my JVC ones sound good and the sound through my car stereo is good too. I can check my emails without having to start up the computer and I was surprised to be able to view attached word documents. Youtube is very slick and the Safari web browser works well. My only criticisms are that I would like a better calender (although I bought the ipod for the music primarily), and itunes which I hate.
Looks nice but that's about all October 26, 2008 S. J. Durrant (UK) 14 out of 28 found this review helpful
This was bought for me to replace my old ipod and for internet access on my four hours a day on the train. It looks great and promises much however unless you are going to be using it somewhere static with good wi-fi access don't buy it. Most of the programmes rely on wi-fi and this means you need to access an unlocked wi-fi network. On the move this does not work, the helpful advice from Apple was to go to Starbucks and pay to use their wi-fi! The battery life is hideous and it runs down even when not in use, when its empty of juice it defaults to year 2000 and you have to reset the date and time. The predictive text drives you nuts. When you try to download from your itunes library there is obviously not enough space for everything so it unhelpfully chooses random songs for you. The way round this is to create all new playlists just for your 8gb ipod - what a pain. Funnily enough the 122 page user guide on the Apple website doesn't mention any of this. Shame really because this has been a total waste of money - would have been better just to buy a new ipod. To be honest this product and their service has put me off the whole brand.
8 GB? Don't think so. October 25, 2008 Will Myles 8 out of 12 found this review helpful
I purchased this product and when it arrived at my house I was very impressed by apples ipod touch. However when I was syncing all my data (music, vids etc.) I was only to find that the actual capticy of the ipod was not 8GB but 7GB, how cheap.
