(not the iPhone) With the Apple iPod touch, Apple has married the iPhone's revolutionary multi-touch interface to their popular digital media player. So instead of a Click Wheel, you just use your fingers to flick through your music, photos, and video. Two fingers can be used in a pinching or spreading motion as well, which zooms in and out of photos and web pages. That's right, the iPod touch is the first iPod to offer web access. It does this via built-in Wi-Fi support. There's even a special iTunes Wi-Fi Store, so you can browse and purchase new music and video while you're on the road. The latest iPod touch now offers a suite of new applications, including email, maps, and handy widgets for weather, notes, and stocks. The new iPod touch also features a customizable home screen that lets you rearrange buttons and create your own Web Clips.

Date: 2008-10-09 apple touch end user Product works good, although I did have to reset it to the default settings when I first recieved it to get it to accept my downloads. Now it seems fine.
Date: 2008-10-06 You need this! I ordered this the day it came out, I use it every day and it does not have a scratch on it and works like the day I unwrapped it!
Date: 2008-10-06 Get the latest generation Itouch. I never got the download of the iphone software to work so I returned it and got the new latest version. The new version 32GB is a true gem in pocket tools!!!!!
Date: 2008-10-06 Apple iTouch 32Gb This is the hottest product ever! There is nothing to compare with the touch user interface in this device.
I only wish it had the 3G phones' capabilities and the capability to view .WMV video files from the web.
Otherwise you absolutely can't go wrong when buying any Apple iTouch it beats the pants off any other music/video player, even better than the classic ipods and the really cool nano's!
Date: 2008-10-06 apple touch all my husband's cds have been stored away after i spent 3 weeks uploading music. i am so happy. this product is great. so convenient when on vacation to check e-mail and the sound quality is excellent. bought a bose sound dock and have never looked back. excellent price, shipped early and would highly recommend.
