This is my 2nd ipod, I also have an ipod classic which have served me very well so I had no hesitation in buying the ipod touch. The ipod touch can play music, view photos, videos, surf the web, in fact it can do pretty much what an iphone can do but obviously can not make call as its not a mobile device. It has the same features as the iphone like the accelerometer which detect any movement you make. The touch screen is very effective and accurate, the interface is very clear and straight to the point. The only real criticism that I have of the ipod touch is that it doesn't have a volume switch on the device itself, sometimes when you wanted to turn the sound up/down it can take you a while to do that as the device maybe passcoded and the screen lock is on etc. I also find that even with 16gb, which may sounds a lot, it isn't really enough to hold all your musics, videos, photos and games so I had to be quite selective as what goes in it.

Going back to games on this device, you can actually purchase a full version of Super Monkey Ball by Sega off the App store for £5.99 compare this to say a Nintendo DS Lite game price (£20 - £25) its a real bargain. Though not many good games are out at the moment but i am sure that will change in the future.

Having never had a ipod, i got the ipod touch and I was very impressed with the build quality, the U.I and the and the general ease of use.

The ipod touch comes with a USB cable, headphones, a stand on a docking clip.

When you open the box you have to sync it to itunes to work, in which it formats your ipod, which should be done before hand but oh well.

After the hour+ (Depending on the capacity of ipod) waiting for your ipod to format then after that your ipod is then ready.

One of the major let downs with the ipod isn't the ipod itself it's itunes, it isn't drop and play you have to create play lists first and import the albums or tracks which go into a separate folder then you have to drop the tracks into the play lists. This takes alot of getting used to and is annoying as hell.

Pros +
Great interface
USB cable makes it easy to charge on the go
Easy to use
Easy to install apps onto
Video quality is amazing
