Touch Magic

Advantages: Great sound quality, great applications
Disadvantages: Battery Life, Fingerprints, could be better

...With the birthday money I got I wanted to spend it on something special, something that I would use a lot and wouldn?t just stick it in the cupboard at the end of the day. My younger sister?s birthday is 2 weeks after mine, and she wanted to buy an IPod, so I decided to give her mine for a little bit of money, and then buy this. She now is buying her own, new IPod so I?ve lost a little bit of money but I still brought this. Purchasing I purchased my IPod touch pretty quickly, I found a deal on Curry?s website which meant I had to pick up the IPod within a few hours, but it was worth it for the deal I got. I was willing to pay the £165 that you will pay for this item, but I wanted something else, something that made it worth spending the £165. Luckily the one and only day I checked the currys website, they had a deal on. If you...

ipod touch review

Advantages: Attractive, easy to use touch screen and applications
Disadvantages: Expensive and the headphones are not very durable

...In my opinion the iPod touch is the best in the MP3 player category. With features such as the applications and album artwork it is much more than just a music playing device. However, I would recommend most music listeners to go for a higher memory option. The headphones are not very durable however, and are expensive to replace. That s one drawback of the iPod, all the accessories and software updates tend to be expensive. With the accessories it may be best to look elsewhere than the official Apple products as there are good alternatives. Unless you want a simple music player, in which case I would recommend the iPod shuffle, I think this easily beats the competition in attractiveness and, like most Apple products, just being cool! Its is not the cheapest in its category, but I think it is without a doubt the best....

iTouch!

Advantages: Packed with applications, very handy and easy to use.
Disadvantages: Keyboard is hard to use, no flash player and not very durable without a case.

...If it was not for the fact that I needed more than 16GB at the time of buying my 160GB iPod Classic, I would've bought one of these. Obviously now, there is the 32GB iPod Touch, but this is still not enough. The iPod touch therefore is for people who have some money to spend and just want to put their CD's onto the iPod. It is packed with features and in essence is a PDA without the office applications. It comes pre-loaded with Safari (Apple's own web browser), the iTunes store, built in iPod, a special YouTube application for viewing Youtube videos and many other features. Firstly, while I'm thinking about it, the iPod touch doesn't come with a flash player, which is the reason why there's a special YouTube application. This means that when browsing safari, you can't watch embedded video clips or clips off other video sharing sites...

iTouch

Advantages: Brilliant
Disadvantages: Nono

...I am not going toi pretend that I can inform you of everythng there is to know on the iPod Touch, they are so extensive in there functions i think it would just be boring you anyway! Let me start from the beginnning, I saved up for the christmas just gone, and i wanted to buy my two younger brothers something which they would really appreciate and enjoy. A friend said why don't i buy them one of these, now don't get me wrong, i know what an iPod is, but i had no idea about an iTouch, therefore I was reluctant to spend £170 each on them. When I first saw them, I was a little disappointed, I would have thought that Apple would offer you some inclusive accessories with the £170 iPod that you are buying, but really i was just a black thing in a small clear case. On inspection of the item i realised that it is a very smart and very...

A Touch Too Much?

Advantages: App store, built in speaker, external volume control
Disadvantages: None (so far)

...I've used an iPod since they released their second generation, original iPod with the touch wheel that lit up red. I then replaced that with a 30gb iPod Video in Black which has lasted me quite a while and still works brilliantly. With the launch of the 2nd generation iPod Touch, I have decided to upgrade again. I was setting my heart on the price of the iPhone on O2 PAYG being reasonable, but I may have been a little deluded in thinking that Apple would make it competitive enough that it wouldn't make a dent in most people's savings. So when they released it at £350 for an 8GB, I focused on the Touch instead. I ordered it direct from Apple on Sunday evening and it arrived on Tuesday via UPS, so the speed was excellent beings as the website stated it would take 3-5 business days to ship. Unfortunately it arrived too late in...

Touch like an iPod

Advantages: Quality is brilliant and all the functions are Useful
Disadvantages: Fingerprints and Scratches

...Apple IPod Touch 8GB Apple has always been the forerunner in the field of MP3 players. I bought my first iPod 3 years ago, the iPod 4 GB mini, I was quite pleased at first but after a while the battery stopped working, but it remains to be seen whether or not this is the case with the Touch. I spent quite a while looking around for the best price, in the end I opted for eBay! I now think that I should've waited for the right one to come around, I chose to buy a new one for £150. However, when I looked at the Apple website they were £199 so I saved £50 which was worth the risk on eBay as it often is. I also bought a case and an i-trip.

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

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 :) )

...First thing is first. With any Apple product you know it will be very expensive, very cool and pretty simple to use. I have been an Apple fan for a while and have have an iPod mini (4gb), iPod video (30gb) and now my iPod touch (as well as a Mac mini =] ). If you are wanting an MP3 player that will just play your music then you may be put off the iPod touch as for the same price you can have a considerably bigger music player. However the Album Art scrolling feature- known as Cover Flow make it more interesting, and there is nothing more fun than scrolling through your albums with your fingers! However this is a lot more than an MP3 player. Although it will hold 2000 songs or tonnes of videos it also has a lot more features built in. With its built in Wi-Fi you are able to use Safari to surf the internet. In my experience the internet...

  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...

Touche Eclat? Touche Eme!

Advantages: Excellent coverage, Easy to apply
Disadvantages: Price can be a put off

...I have never bought any Yves Saint Laurent products in the past, I've always been tempted by the shiny displays in my local Boots and Debenhams but the price has always put me off. Why pay £20ish for something you buy for £4 in a cheaper brand?! After actually trying this product I am converted and will definately be purchasing this in the future! I was recently lucky enough to be sent not 1 but 2 Touche Eclats for free to trial and give my opinion on. I did a quick google search and the cheapest I could have purchased these for was £16.50 excluding delivery so I was over the moon that I was finally going to be getting to try this expensive brand for free! When I received my products I took a moment to have a look at the packaging, it is a gold pen with a hefty weight and 'feels' quality. It is the type of product you pull out of your...
