Smart and easy to use, although you should invest in a cover as the chrome back case scratches very easily

everything is in one place, music, pictures, you can even watch films downloaded from i-tunes, also the apps (games mostly) are great fun.
the wi-fi could be better, my ipod used to connect to my router but since i upgraded to a draft n router the ipod does'nt want to know the router, but thats only a little niggle, i just download through i-tunes on the p.c and sync them to the ipod

Easy to use interface, and a fantastic range of applications which can be added to via I-tunes.
sound level is limited. I find it difficult to reach an adequate sound level even with a pair of bose in-ear headphones

Easy to use with a range of different features. Especially like the accessability of the wireless.
You can't skip to the next track when it is on cover flow or it might just be me not eing able to figure it out!

A work of art - deserves more than 10 points for design & ease of use. It's larger than most other players, but it is almost all screen, and making it smaller would reduce the attractiveness of the interface. 8GB holds all of our CD collection, so no point in shelling out the sizeable additional cost for 16GB. Getting the album artwork seems to require setting up an iTunes account, complete with credit card details, etc., so I'm going to have to find a way round that. I bought a Belkin leather wallet-type case which works very well.
Only bad point is iTunes - I don't want to download music, and it makes some things I do want to do a bit clunky.

having a vast amount of music on one product. Simple to import music from other sources and enough memory to store large range of music.
having to ensure that you don't wipe off tunes when adding more music.

An absolutely terrific piece of high tech equipment. I had considered the Ipod classic for the extra memory but after a demonstration of the Ipod touch there was no contest! I love the touch screen and, as a keen photographer, the screen size is excellent for showing my photographs. Extremely happy with this product.
None that I can find

Verry sleek and smooth, easy to use with a large range of excellent features.
The back gets scratched very easily and a little pricey for 8GB. Also, you have to use iTunes to transfer media.

Adam, Gravesend, Kent, Uk, “Music mad, Technology crazy!”
Very easy to use, sound quality is excellent and seperates all your music down into albums and playlists which are easy to find and select.
Very unreliable. Already within 1 month 2 songs i have purchased have vanished from my iPod. They are still on my iTunes on my pc however it is a pain having to keep plugging it in an syncing over and over even though i have made no changes. Also since i have had my iPod Touch it has crashed and had to be restored 5 times (over once a week). Which means it is totally useless until connected to your pc and restored from iTunes, a process which takes me over 1 hour due to the fact i have 400 songs on my iPod. However i can fit thousands of songs onto the iPod so i dread to think how long it will take me in the future.

On WiFi you can't get Flash presentations to work on the Ipod.

Just a great well designed product
It's not obvious that you need to hold down the power button to completely turn the ipod off. If you don't although the screen is blank it's still running in the background - until I realised this the battery went flat overnight

So easy to use I have encouraged my 80 year young Grandad to get one rather than fiddling with a stereo! Nice styling
It doesn't out-weigh the good but it is quite heavy.

Just brilliant design! Touch screen is easy to use after about a day of having it. Good picture quality for watching video.
Must be near a Wi-fi hot spot to get internet but if it used wap you would probably have to pay for it.

It can have music, videos and pictures it has a really good memory and it can use the internet using wireless

It is a smart and compact. It holds lots of music and video, pictures and much more. Its fun to use and easily transported about.
It took a bit of time to get my cd's onto it, but once i had figured it out its fine.

Great as a gift for a none technical person. The screens are brilliant and they work a treat with Itunes.
Useless as a standard media player to locked down. More pretty than functional.

As above , sounds great, can get movies now from itunes and you can connect directly to itunes using Wi-Fi aswell as checking emails.
Unless you buy a protective cover the steal casing can be scratched by velcro from a sports arm band and you are forever cleaning greasy finger prints off the darn thing, but it does come with a cleaning cloth.

Slim dark with a good memory just what Ive been looking for...............Easy to use lots of memory attractive
Would be nice if it came with a screen protector and protective cover instead of having more expense I think its neccessary as the IPod can scratch quite easily.
