This is the new 'touch' from iPod
Has touch screen, music, videos, pictures, WiFi internet
I really want to buy one, they are very pricey though

16 gig = $549

Anyone have a good reason (apart from the money) that I shouldnt get one.

Ive heard that there is an aerial for the WiFi that you pull out like an old mobile phone, is this true?

 

[Kouta_legend]

hurry up and get one already you dud

 

[darcytiger]

They arent released till the 30th september

what a waste of moeny. lol. better off getting an 80gb video or one of the smaller HDD space in the video/nano for way cheaper

Thats what most people would say but the 16g isnt an issue for me. i only have like 1000 songs and i dont see any reason why you couldnt have like 5 movies on there along with music ones and change em every now and then. the new 160g is rediculous IMO

Yeah it's hardly big enough.

Why not just wait for the iPhone ?

I've got one of the new Nano's and it's great.

Ipod touch is an expensive gimmick, i have an 80gig and i'm fine with that. When my Sony Ericsson W880i bites the dust i'll probably get the best in the iphone range but until then I'll try and be a conscious consumer. No point updating what you have if it suits your needs and works fine.

I've got my 8gb on order

The new nano's are getting rave reviews.

The iPhone will keep costing you, but it could be worth it, i've played around with one and it's an amazing little phone!

What a waste of money.

Get a good MP3 player

 

[RichosGuns]

Word to the wise, don't buy one straight away, give them 6 months to smoot out all the bugs and it'll probably drop $100 in price aswell... you'll be much happier in the end

Then get a 8gig nano or 20gig video (do they make them??) for alot cheaper

I personally think that how much money the touch costs. it gives you a bigger screen and wireless. that's all extra to the other ipods. (i don't buy into the touch screen gimmick bullshit)

the touch screen will lose its appeal. my girlfriend had a LG touch screen phone and it was an absolute **** to use. so sensitive especially for those with large fingers.

Are the big ipods that bulky? Use mine mostly on the tredmill so dont want a fat mother.

Iv had a 4 gig nano for over 2 years (yes 1 of the first to get them) and its starting to hit the shitter. Been great service though.

sansa all the way!!!!

Oh good. That won't be a problem for me

Currently 16 gig.

I remember paying 700+ for a 64mb creative nomad when they first came out

I was so happy...could fit 8 slayer songs on there! Gold!
