Strengths: Wi-Fi capability, styling

Weaknesses: Storage size, price

Summary: The Apple iPod touch 16GB MP3 Player is a really cool device. It not only will store and play all your MP3 songs and video clips, it allows you to connect to the internet with it's Wi-fi capability and Safari browser. Some question the 16 GB storage capacity as being too small but I think it has ample storage for most users. It's price is a drawback but you generally get what you pay for, and the Ipod Touch is not cheap. I like the computer software which accompanies the unit and allows you to manage all your audio and video files. This is the first Ipod I have owned since the early variety came out and I am most imporessed. One final comment - if you can afford it get one and you won't regret it.

Strengths: Great user interface--just touch the glass screen for most functions. MP3 player, web browser, calendar, address book and video player all on one device!

Weaknesses: Limited memory, fingerprints easily displayed. No power adapter included.

Summary: If you want the coolest iPod yet check out the Apple iPod touch. This radical design lets you listen to your music as well as browse the internet among other features.Apple has taken the iPhone and removed the telecommunication capabilities. It is thinner than the iPhone, but has many of its functions. It can play music from iTunes or your CDs. It is a web browswer as well (as long as you have access to Wi-Fi). There is only one button (HOME) and you just use your fingers to navigate its many features on its 3-1/2 inch screen. The Cover Flow feature lets you view your album covers as if in a moving rack. Just touch the album and you can select your music.There are a few downsides to this attractive iPod. Apple could have boosted the memory. Currently it is available in 8GB (1750 songs) or 16GB (3500 songs). Hopefully, future versions will have more memory at the same price points. If you don't have an abundance of songs to import, then 16GB may be enough. I initially boiught the 8GB version, but soon discovered that it was already 80% full with not much room to expand, so I bought the 16GB version instead.When you open the box, the only instructions is a small foldout giving you absolutely minimal instructions. A mini-manual would have worked better.Since most functions work with just your finger on the glass screen, it does leave fingerprints. Of course, these can be easily cleaned, but it is a problem if you want to keep it looking clean.This is a great device and once you get the hang of it, a pleasure to use. If Apple would boost the memory size, it would be an MP3 player for the world to beat.

Strengths: razor-thin; touch screen; unbelievably fast software; unbelievably eye-candy software;CoverFlow is amazing ;very functional software - it's very natural to use it.

Weaknesses: A little bit heavy for its thickness. But it has a lot of metal and glass, so it's not actually surprising.16 GB is not enough for me

Summary: I bough the iPod touch 16GB about a month ago, and I can summarize the review with "Wow!" It's an unbelievable device, that seems to come from the future. It's almost perfect.

Strengths: Big Screen, Touch Screen, Wifi, and Thin.

Weaknesses: No Bluetooth, No Camera,

Summary: Overall this is a revolutionizing piece of equipment. It's great to see where Apple is taking up with these gadgets that we never had before. I would recommend this to all the new comers into Tech Gadgets. But for me I wish I would of waited for the next version which I think will have the built in camera and the bluetooth technology.

Strengths: super slim, big screen, wifi

Weaknesses: no volume or next buttons

Summary: I was hesitant at first but jumped in and purchased the Touch. I prefer the interface more than the classic and even though there has been debate about "only" having 16gb of space, I find it a non issue as learning how to manage what you listen to compensates for this shortfall.widescreen for watching videos is also great for car trips.also, being flash based just makes it less prone to break if you workout because no moving parts as the classic does.of course, the touch interface is a big selling point and I find it fun and easy to use. gives me quick access to internet if i'm around a coffee shop or just hanging around on campus.overall, if you don't have another ipod then this is a great purchase.
