I was happy to know that there's a new iPod version but I have heard so many complaints from people who have bought it. The new iPod Touch is a little confusing (I myself got confused at first!). It looks just like an iPhone, but it's not a phone and it doesn't have other iPhone features (such as a camera and Bluetooth). It doesn't look nor acts anything like a traditional iPod, (which I thought was cool anyway) but offers only a tenth the capacity of a similar-sized iPod Classic. One of the most confusing part is the iPod Touch's wireless feature. The WiFi provides Web access via a special version of Safari and a YouTube application, but there is no email feature. Of course we can acces iTunes.
The iPod Touch has a glossy, black face, just like the iPhone, but it has a shiny chrome back instead of the iPhone's softer brushed surface. The iPod Touch is surprisingly heavy for its size - presumably due to use of glass for the display and dense packaging internally but it's thinner than iPhone. Like the iPhone, the iPod Touch provides a 480-by-320-pixel screen that makes photos, videos and interface elements look very good. If you have an iPhone, there's little reason to get an iPod Touch, which offers far less at a similar price minus the phone bill.
If you have some cash to spare (and you don't have an iPhone yet), you should probably run out and buy an iPod Touch. It's fun to experience its innovation and explore its capabilities.
