Ipod Touch 8Gb with engraving

Advantages: All the features of the iphone but without the massive price tag
Disadvantages: battery life could be better

...--Background-- I bought the iPod touch for my son for his 10th birthday. Before he alerted me to the item I knew nothing at all about it. Having played around with it for a few hours, I can now see what all the fuss is about as this item is so addictive. The touch comes in 3 guises, namely 8Gb, 16Gb and 32Gb versions. These are all identical apart from, obviously the storage capacity. --In the box-- I must admit that then the box came, I thought half the order had been missed as it is minute! Along with the ipod itself, you get the headphones, a usb to pc charger and a quick setup guide. Although this seem very little, it is actually enough to get you up and running in next to no time. As we bought this direct from the Apple store we were entitlted to free engraving on the back of the device. We took the decision to have his...

  iPod Touch 8GB

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

... 8GB iPod Touch As my boyfriend's birthday approached, I was panicking as to what to get him as men are a nightmare to shop for and I really wanted to get something exciting. I noticed that he kept borrowing my ipod nano and initially planned to get him one of his own but on the Apple website I saw the ipod touch and worked out that if I got him that then I could steal it and use it! From the Apple website, the 8GB iPod Touch cost me £199 with free postage and packing and a free optional engraving. I thought this was a reasonable price it was nice and simple to order it online. I chose the free engraving option and this enabled me to have a two line engraving on the back (top centre) of the ipod. Obviously, it is a very good idea to check your spelling at this point as the ipod cannot be returned due your mistakes when...

8GB Ipod Touch

Advantages: Wii-fi support, touch screen display, ease of use
Disadvantages: quite pricey, output through headphones just, unless you by a docking station

...One things for sure Ipods are getting more popular by the day as more features and different designs are being introduced to these almost everyday necessities. I purchased the 8gb version 3 months or so back and ive been really please with it. It stands out from the rest as it has a large screen for viewing videos and photo's, but not only that it has the built in touch sensitive display which is very easy to use and im sure very popular. It has also introduced the new wii-fi so that you can connect to a wireless connection whether it be from the comfort of your home or in a coffee shop etc. when you go to i-tunes ur music and files can be transferred to your ipod within seconds though videos take a bit longer. All in all id say this product is worth investing in if you have a spare £180....

ipod touch 8gb

Advantages: internet access and speaker
Disadvantages: scratches easily space used for unknown reasons

...Since getting my Ipod touch for christmas i have been obsessed. I love how i can easily access the internet and download apllications almost anywhere where there is an available internet connection. The screen is clear and the sound is crisp although the speaker could do with being slightly louder. I had slight trouble in the first week of getting my ipod as it crashed and i ws unable to use it for a few days until i found out on the Apple website how to reset and restore it which resulted in all my songs and apps that were already on it being deleted. Thankfully it was a quick process to get them all back on again. One disadvange is a lot of memory is taken up under the section know as 'other' on itunes, in my case it is around 1Gb and i stil lhave no idea what it is using all that memory, i would not mind if the capacity was larger but...

Ipod Touch 8GB

Advantages: Loads!
Disadvantages: Can be a bit flimsy

...This is a great bit of kit! ... It has a wide range of features all of which are very useful to the everyday user! The way it stores music is very well layed out and easy to use and the connectivity is amazing! The Wi-Fi is also very useful and i regularly use the net on it. You can store photos and videos and zoom in and out just by moving your fingers together or apart! This is a truely amzing bit of kit and is well worth buying! The Ipod touch has many good features. These include video playback, Photo viewing, drag and drop compatable (this makes transfering files onto it very easy) large 3.5inch screen (very good for viewing pictures, videos and the internet) and of cause the best feature is that it is Wi-Fi. From personal experience i can say that the touch is a very slick and easy to use item! The way the different feautres...

Apple Ipod Touch 8Gb

Advantages: Slim, modern, eye catching, capable. Market leading
Disadvantages: Cost, limited memory for video.

...I have owned this since before Christmas 2008. The packaging was minimal and the design of the Apple Ipod touch 8Gb is breathtaking. Beautiful. The docking is identical to previous generations of Ipod so can be used with any of your previous connectivity and charging docking solutions. The great gui and human interface via the touch screen is innovative and market leading. However, finding your way about and updating via the Apple site takes a few moments to get your head around. Just take your time and enjoy the experience. There are speakers in the case so for occasional use you can listen without earphones. There is a mini jack for connection to systems that do not support the Ipod dock. Aftermarket accessories are available for this like cases and skins. I would recommend this to anyone. With Wi-Fi you can...

Ipod Touch 8gb must buy

Advantages: looks great, great battery life, huge memory for your favorite tracks
Disadvantages: 8gb model is not realy big enough to store movies

...Ive had the ipod touch 8gb since christmas and i got it for £200 and i think that it was worth every penny but now the price has dropped slightly to £179.99 which makes this product even better ive had 3 ipods before (nano 1st,2nd and shuffle) and this is the best by far!!! it has a great 3.5" touch screen and the 8gb internal memory is more than enough to store your favorite music and a few music videos or a couple of movies but if you want a mp3 player to watch movies the ipod touch is the product for you but i would go for the 16gb model as 8gb realy isnt big enough for movies and your favorite music. i would highly reccomend this product to anyone who is lookin for a new mp3/mp4 player . i think this ipod is so good that what ever mp3 you own im sure you would realy enjoy the ipod touches features and great look. and the battery life...

Apple iPod Touch 8GB

Advantages: Great graphics and apps
Disadvantages: You get fingerprints over the screen!

..., (the games are really snazzy!) and the sliding things like the pages and unlock thing are wizard. In my opinion, the touch is exceedingly easy to use. LOOK & DESIGN I love the look of the iPod touch. The smooth graphics and colours blend to make an easy-on-the-eye contraption. Pictures on Safari (the web browser, also used on most Macs) are perfect, even when zoomed in. Pages on both the home page and on Safari are layed out perfectly. RANGE OF FEATURES The range of different apps and features is unbelievable - there are millions! Unfortunately I only get the free ones, I don't pay for them... but, hey!, the free ones are still really fun! I love the Darts, Bowling, Four in a Row, Tic Tac Toe, and the Last.fm apps - they are my favourites. VALUE FOR MONEY The touch is quite expensive, even for 8GB, but it definitely makes...

Apple iPod Touch 8GB

Advantages: Touchscreen and Big Memory. Easy to Use!
Disadvantages: Quite Expensive

...its hard to write a review of a product like the Ipod touch, because every one of you have read everything about it somewhere else. I have to say that Ipod touch is simply something I've fallen in love with and find myself addicted to. I saw it in the Apple store before Christmas and I said to myself that this would be my next purchase. After pestering my parents, I got it for Xmas and they bought one for my sister as well (she is not into electronics) - she loved it almost as much as me and I've never seen her use her old MP3 player anywhere near as much as this. It is quite like the Iphone with the touch screen and you can do that pinch and zoom thing as well which i really like. The memory of 8gb is sooo big that I can store all my pictures and music and films on it and still have enough room to browse the web - YES you can search...

iPod Touch 8 GB

Advantages: User friendly, good size screen, good sound
Disadvantages: scratches easy, expensive

...I have owned my ipod touch, 8 GB, since August of last year which i received as a birthday gift and as i already owned an ipod nano at first i didn't see the point of having another ipod, and although i was very grateful for the gift i did at first consider it a waste of money. But i soon become to love it, in the first few months of receiving my ipod as i gift i was constantly playing with it. It stored far more albums than my previous ipod, allows me to watch films, and more importantly it provides me with internet access so i can constantly shop online lol which is absolutely fantastic. My original ipod fails to compare in comparison and is now in a draw somewhere collecting dust. In my opinion this ipod is extremely users friendly and easy to navigate as it presented in a common sense way, it has a good size screen, and in my...
