Apple’s all-new iPod touch isn’t all-new at all. It looks almost identical to the last model
Albeit slightly slimmer
And that’s because Apple’s done almost all of its tinkering inside. The fruity firm has added a speaker (althoug...

Average sound quality
The second generation iPod touch has failed to excite us. Yes
It’s a bit thinner
But the extra features are next to useless. The built in speaker is woefully under-powered
And can barely be heard in anything but the quietest room. The Nike+ iPod...
You have to use iTunes 8
No camera
Speaker is poor for listening to music
Its not an iPhone
Nike+ functionality no better than Nano. Tinny speaker slightly unnecessary
Speaker not very good
Easy to get grimy fingerprints
Ditch those white headphones if you can
Overall size makes it impractical in many situations
Overwhelming for users looking for a simple music player
Does everything, entertainmentwise, now including games, Love the screen, love the internal speaker, love the user interface
Occasional software hiccups, No way around it: Unless were wearing gloves, its going to get smudged
This is hands-down the best iPod to watch movies on, for its big, wide screen, fluid controls and even the built-in speaker, when we want to share or just dont feel like wearing headphones. The original iPod touch was pretty revolutionary, and pretty...

Apple has begun to reinvent the iPod touch as the ‘funnest’ vehicle for playing games, websurfing and email when in Wi-Fi range, and even as a keep-fit companion with its Nike+ jogging monitor. But in spite of its shortfall in making phone calls, we l...
Abstract: The revised and updated iPod touch offers a slimmed down profile and bulked up features. While the change is more evolutionary than revolutionary, it makes using the player a lot more pleasant. Its odd that Apples marketing has dubbed this version ...
Outstanding build quality, Intuitive user interface, Superb audio and video playback, Many included extras, Unlimited expandability via App Store
Price, Doesn’t see weak Wi-Fi networks, Needs a better equalizer, No Bluetooth, *
Apple’s refinements to the iPod Touch make it one of the slickest, most impressive media players on the market today. At $229 for even the smallest 8GB version, you’re still paying a pretty premium for Apple’s name and trademark en...
Abstract: Apple describes it as (with apologies to grammar teachers—and I used to be one) as “the funnest iPod ever.” I won’t argue with that. It handles music, photo, videos, etc., with aplomb (as most iPods do) but is also a fin...
Abstract: Now in its second generation, the iPod touch from Apple is seeing a reduced price, improved hardware and a major influx of new features. The iPod touch was lost in the shadow of the iPhone in the past year, but hopefully this ingenious gadget will now ...
Abstract: The second iteration of the largely popular iPod touch series has been on the market for several weeks now, but with the holiday season fast approaching its important that consumers know exactly what they are getting for their $200+ purchase. Between e...
Abstract: Apple certainly didnt revolutionize the iPod touch with the devices latest update. But it didnt necessarily have to in order to make the device a compelling personal media player. Even people who already have an iPhone may want to take a good look ...
