 A major disappointment... July 24, 2008
When the Touch was introduced, this new iPod left me, the happy owner of seven predecessors, unusually cold. I couldn't understand why not the WHOLE front of the device was a screen, creating not only a stunning look but also a real Wide-Screen. The aspect ratio of the current screen is 1:1.5 which is certainly not the genuine Wide-Screen 9:16 / 1:1.78 format. On top of that, the whole thing looked a little bit too toyish for my taste. And again Apple practically ignored the fact that the Euro and the USD are two different currencies which means that this 32 GB Touch costs 725 USD in the Euroland Apple stores. If the Touch 32 GB is value for money at a price of 499 USD [Apple's US store price, in which I'm not allowed to shop], it certainly isn't at 725. I know this sounds whiny and the solution is simply to avoid the Apple store like the plague and find some Asian web-site, but Apple just comes across as insulting instead of inviting this way.
However, in spite of all that I bought one, and well...actually owning and using it indeed leaves me cold. I miss the click-wheel, which may be less spectacular but in my opinion is so much more clever and user friendly than the Touch operating scheme. I find the last one fragmented, and without the possibility to go forth and back, step by step. I'm sick and tired to always have to return to the 'basic' button before going on. The user-functions are not part of one unifying concept like with the -rightly famous- wheel. They should have kept it, hidden in the touch-screen and magically appearing when needed.
I have no idea why there's so little room for film titles and why they are not listed in the same position as the screen:'lenghtwise' instead of 'widthwise'. Especially with TV-series this is an annoyance because the episode-numbers are off-screen when the lenght of the title exceeds two words.[PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong and inform me that this setting can be changed].
Of course Apple has again made some great accessories redundant, I can't use a splendid portable charger with the Touch [it's UNIVERSAL: works with every cell-phone, camera, and iPod untill now] which is a nuisance because as always the built-in battery is pathetic.
For the audiophiles: don't expect any improvement in sound-quality since there isn't. On the contrary, the 5.5 gen is still superior and thus sounds better than this 'improved' iPod.
I DO like the glass screen btw!
The following is my own fault, so I can't blame this machine for it: I just don't get the importance of the wi-fi thing. I have a laptop which I always have with me and I haven't discovered what the advantage is to do the 'wireless things' with the Touch instead of my laptop. And why sent e-mails with the Touch when you can sms and mms with your phone? Downloading music or video while I'm on the move is, in my experience, very uncomfortable. I have other things to do or on my mind then. I bought the Touch for the big screen [which IS great] and the less fragile Flash-memory. And the supposedly amazing technical qualities of course...but I'm sorry: I'm not impressed or amused by them.
Best mobile device on the market! July 23, 2008
There are so many features on this device, it's not just a media player, it's an UMPC (ultra-mobile PC). Now with the new application software available for both the iPod Touch and the iPhone, you can install applications like you can a PC (use iTunes to download or download at a WiFi spot). Since it has the internet, a PDA, email, and can install apps on it, it could replace the need to carry a laptop for some instances. The battery life for the internet is about 2 hours, but if you don't use the Wi-Fi, it can last up to 22 hours. I love this device, and I put 4 out of 5 stars because of only 2 hour battery life for WiFi, otherwise, it would have gotten a 5!

Buyer Beware - Dead On Arrival - go through Apple next time July 22, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this to send to my sister in Germany, and when it got to her (via our Mum, who was traveling to visit) it was completely dead! Luckily she's able to exchange it at an Apple Store in Berlin, but after this experience I will be leery of buying another Apple product through Amazon.
This happened once before to me when I bought an AirPort card for my work iBook, the hardware I got was completely non-functioning.
I've bought cannon electronics here no problem, but I will not be buying Apple here again!
