bigger brother the Zeppelin, its a sleek, robust piece of design the perfect partner to your iPod or iPhone. The design of the docking arm makes the most of the functionality of your iPod, positioning it just above the surface of the speaker at an angle thats perfect for tapping a touch screen or tracking a scroll wheel. It also allows you to rotate the iPod to the horizontal position ideal if you like to skip through your playlists using cover-flow, or for playing music videos. The Zeppelin Mini was developed with exactly the same acoustic engineering principles as Bowers&Wilkins used to make the speakers in the control room of Abbey Road Studios, so you can be sure of excellent sound reproduction. Advanced digital signal processing ensures all the subtleties of your music are beautifully preserved, no matter how loud you play it. While the Flowport system gives the speakers mighty bass driver the air it needs to breathe. Lots of devices will happily connect with your Zeppelin Mini. Using the AUX socket at the back of the speaker, you can connect your CD player, DVD player, other MP3 players in fact, almost any electronic device that plays music or sound. And it doesnt end there. Using a device like Apples Airport Express, you could make Zeppelin Mini part of a wireless network, streaming music wirelessly from your computers hard drive. This is not just a superb iPod speaker its also a superb computer speaker. Plug your Mac or PC into Zeppelin Mini using the USB port, and youll be able to get the same stunning sound quality from your desktop or laptop as you would from yourMP3 player. Even better, once its connected, you can control iTunes directly with Zeppelin Minis remote.
Advantages: Very cool and sexy, Packed with features, Good sound quality through headphones, Disadvantages: Built in speaker quality, battery when online, durability, and price (but its Apple so y'know :) )

Now... the bad bits....
Of course this is made by Apple, so it will have a crazy price tag however I have found that of all my iPods this is the best value for money as you have so many features, many of which I use regularly and aren't just gimmicks!
The built in speaker in the 2nd generation iPod touch is incredibly disappointing. The sound is tinny and worse quality than most mobile phones, so is not a feature worth having at all. In fact i find it irritating as when i click Play when my headphones aren't plugged in my music plays and sounds horrrible! very embarrassing.
Overall the iPod touch is very easy to use, however some of the free applications have glitches, which is understandable as most are still in development. When I have had problems the Apple support online has been ...
Advantages: lots of space for movies and tv shows Disadvantages: will get badly scrached
the only other things I can find wrong is that you cannot connect your iPod to a different computer and if you do it will delete everything already on there. Then you cannot delete anything of the iPod on till you take it off iTunes and put the iPod on. Another problem I have found is that the iPod scratches very easily and there are no speakers in the iPod but the headphones are very good. ...
Advantages: intuitive, stylish, fun, great music player, variety of features, internet function Disadvantages: fingerprints! no camera, no built in speakers, only available in black currently
Tunes, although the more videos you put onto your iPod Touch, the less space for music and pictures. It is great to put on a film to watch at a time when you are bored such as on a train or on your lunch break at work!
Technical bits (explained!)
As I mentioned above in the storage section, this particular iPod Touch is the 8GB one, it is currently only available in black but I am sure they will soon come out with more colours as they have done with previous iPods.
The wireless works at 802.11 b/g (meaning that it works at a nice speedy pace!)
The colour display screen is 3.5 inch (diagonal) and is 320 by 480 pixels (nice clear, good quality screen).
The battery life for music playback is up to 22 hours and the batter life for video playback is up to 5 hours. On the basis that you will use it for a combination of its functions ...
