Full review
The iPod touch 16GB is boasts pure class. It is a machine that even the most cynical amongst us will find hard to fault.
It has a variety of features such as WiFi enabled Safari, video, music and much more.

However, I have to admit that my iPod is jailbroken (hacked using the free software - ZiPhone) and this has made it possibly the most beautiful machine i have ever touched. The jailbroken version of the iPod touch allows you to fully customize the iPod, as well as play Playstation and Game Boy Advance games for free. To add to this, it has a scratchproof screen and is ultra slim.

The WiFi feature is also especially useful in the UK, where BBC iPlayer can be accessed for free so you can watch any BBC programme for free on your iPod.

On the other hand, the iPod touch is extremely expensive if bought new. Furthermore, the iPod touch lacks some of the features present on the iPhone. I am aware that many people are put off the iPhone due to the fact that it is on a lengthy expensive contract, but if it is unlocked, the iPhone is an even better product due to its camera and phone features.

A problem people find in both the Touch and iPhone is the lack of a flash player - meaning much web content is not viewable. Also, the iPod touch only has internet in WiFi points whereas the iPhone 3G will have internet everywhere.

Therefore i would recommend you consider avoiding the iPod touch, and opt for the unlocked iPhone 3G coming out 11th July '08. However if on the other hand you do not wish to unlock the iPhone, i would advise a second hand iPod touch.
