Pay attention to the fact they say Ist Generation, yet don't explain the implications and let you know how it compares with current product. Be aware that a brand new (as of 11-28-08) 16 gig off Apple's website is normally $299. The 32 Gig model is $399. Don't waste your money. Shame on you Amazon for not showing stronger ethics. It is not enough to just print that it is first generation in my opinion. By the way, Apple is also having a one day sale on various items including this one...
 Almost as good as an iPhone... November 24, 2008

The Apple iPod Touch is a fantastic product, utilizing the new touch screen features that seem to wow the iPhone crowd. I received the new iPod Touch as a gift this August, and I have been using it everyday since. I use it to play my iTunes music, write my to-do list, sync my Outlook calendar and contacts, send and check e-mail, and browse the internet. However, I cannot make nor receive phone calls. That is the one function my iPod is missing, and I regret having to reach into my bag, pull out my cell phone, and put my iPod away.
I find my new gadget very easy to use and very reliable, but I find myself wishing for an iPhone instead. I would rather not have two gadgets when they could very easily be rolled into one. Also, I have found that I must pay $9.99 to download the new Apps Store from iTunes, while my iPhone-using friends can download it for free. So, to download the free applications that iTunes has to offer for my iPod, I must pay an initial set-up fee. This has deterred me from making the purchase. I am not that desperate to play games that I am willing to pay $10 for them. Another thing that deters me is the wireless internet situation. As a college student, I can secure wireless internet on my campus and in my house, but I cannot get it while walking down the street or while riding in the car. Since I am not using an AT&T service, I cannot utilize the Edge network, and that makes connectivity slightly frustrating. Connecting is also not automatic, so I must manually connect to a wireless network of choice before I can surf the Web or check my e-mail.
So, now that the holidays are fast approaching, I find myself hoping for an iPhone. I would gladly put my iPod Touch away to gain more convenience and connectivity.

Amazing music player November 17, 2008
Pro:
You can play music, video, games, or even go online. It is very fun and I own 8GB Ipod touch wish to have 16GB so i can store more files in it. I bring my itouch to wherever i go.
Cons:
the battery life seems very well in the beginning, it will slowly drain out of battery the more we use internet.
