Apple iPod Touch 8GB(2nd Gen.)




Apple's 2nd Generation iPod touch is a great product for those who like to enjoy both movies and music at your fingertips. At my first use, the iPod Touch essentially seemed like an iPhone minus the phone features. The iPod Touch is Wi-Fi enabled, and utilizes the Safari browser, which is very powerful(for use in a media device). There are many other features besides just music and movie playback capabilities, such as an address book, calendar, and organizer. The iPod Touch's touchscreen is very accurate and responsive, as well as unscratchable(or so it seems). The backside of the iPod Touch is still stainless steel however, which attracts scratches and smudges very easily. Video playback is crisp and could not be any better, except for an option for contrast, which I believe is the only lacking quality in the iPod Touch's video playback department. Some hardware may not work between 1st and 2nd generation iPod Touches because of the changed "pin-out" design. This is my own gripe with the new iPod Touch, but other than that, its a great item!
