Manufacturer's Description:
Now there's even more to touch Great new applications come to an already amazing iPod
Mail
iPod touch is the first iPod with Mail. And it’s the best email you’ve ever seen on a handheld device. This mail application lets you view rich HTML email with graphics and photos displayed inline, as well as PDF, Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel attachments.
 Maps
Get directions and check traffic with Google Maps. Even find yourself, wherever you are. Using some local Wi-Fi networks (if Wi-Fi is turned on), iPod touch finds your approximate location and gives directions from there. Mark specific locations, find the best route between them and search for points of interest along the way. With a hybrid map and satellite view, you can see major street names on top of satellite images. Drop a pin to mark a location and find nearby points of interest.
 Widgets
Widgets are small, incredibly handy applications you can use every day. Three of the most useful widgets now live front and centre on your Home screen.
Weather - Get a five-day weather forecast, including highs and lows, for cities around the world. Save your favourite locations so you can check the weather any time.
Notes - Take notes, make a to-do list, or jot down a reminder using the easy-to-use touch keypad. Then save or email them.
Stocks - Check your stocks and track the market over one day, one week, one month, three months, six months, one year or two years.
 Multi-touch
iPod touch features the same revolutionary interface as iPhone. Built to take full advantage of the large 3.5-inch display, the multi-touch interface lets you control everything using only your fingers. So you can glide through albums with Cover Flow, flick through photos and enlarge them with a pinch, or zoom in and out on a section of a web page. And iPod touch features a touchscreen QWERTY keyboard perfect for browsing the web in Safari, searching for videos on YouTube, finding music on the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store, entering calendar events, or adding new contacts.
 Ambient Light Sensor
The iPod touch display has an ambient light sensor that automatically adjusts brightness to suit the ambient light in your surroundings. The result? A better experience for you and battery-saving efficiency for iPod touch.
 Accelerometer
An accelerometer detects when you rotate iPod touch from portrait to landscape, then automatically changes the contents of the display, so you immediately see the entire width of a web page, your music in Cover Flow, or a photo in its proper aspect ratio.
Touchscreen iPod   Music
If a picture says a thousand words, think of what all the album art in your collection might say. With Cover Flow on iPodtouch, you can flick through your music to find the album you want to hear. And when you do, a quick tap of the cover flips it over to display a track list. Another tap starts the music.
Video
The 3.5-inch display gives you video like nothing you’ve seen before on a portable device. Watch your favorite movie. Catch up on television shows, anywhere. Enjoy video podcasts. Play music videos. All using multi-to uch technology that lets you bring up onscreen controls and go widescreen (or back to full screen) with a tap.
 Photos
iPod touch holds up to 20,000 photos you sync via iTunes. Flick to scroll through thumbnails. Tap to view full screen. Rotate for landscape format. Or perform some sleight of hand by opening two fingers to zoom in. You can even play slideshows, complete with music and transitions. Set any photo as your wallpaper to personalize your iPod touch...with a touch.
Wi-Fi Web Browser  Safari
With Apple’s Safari browser built in, iPod touch is the only iPod that gives you wireless access to the web, everywhere you go. See websites the way they were designed to be seen. Sync your bookmarks or add a few as you go. Search the web using the touchscreen keyboard. Zoom in and out by tapping the multi-touch display.
 YouTube
Got a bit of a YouTube addiction? iPod touch feeds it from anywhere with a special YouTube player built right in. Watch featured videos, check out the most viewed, search for something specific, then bookmark your favorites for future reference. It’s all the fun of YouTube — pocket-size.
 iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store
With iPod touch, you can discover new music anywhere. Built-in wireless capability gives you access to the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store, where you can buy songs with a tap. Browse New Releases, What’s Hot, and Just Added lists. Or find exactly what you’re looking for with a quick search. Tap a song to preview it or tap Buy to purchase it. From anywhere.

Well what can I say....its one of the best units I have ever used. I was never an apple fan so never bought one but when I saw this I had to have it, with the software upgrade it is great. You can find your position on google maps (providing your in wifi range!), you can check the stockmarket (again only in wifi range), you can write notes, play games, look at photos (but not take them), listen to music, watch youtube, browse the internet. I mean this really is a spectacularly versatile unit. 16 GB was enough for me as my music range is limited but for someone who has a wide selection of music this may not be enough especially if you have alot of other files on there. I wouldnt recommend this unit for someone who loves music and just needs an ... Read More:

I bought the 16GB Ipod Touch to replace my old style 4GB Nano. The Ipod Touch is a beautiful gadget, and is very nice to use. It is a shame that my old Ipod accessories, such as my radio and my charger, do not work with the Ipod Touch. Despite having the same dock fitting, these accessories aren't compatible and I will be forced to pay out to replace these too - expensive and not very "green". Apart from this, the Ipod Touch is great and you can have hours of fun on the wifi - browsing online, checking whats on at the cinema, reading the newspaper, checking the sports scores etc. Music and video play very well and the "cover flow" feature for browsing through your albums is fab.

I was bought an iPod 16gb for christmas, my first MP3 player. It was a generous gift but my wife only bought it because she liked the gimmicky photo rotation trick. Even that does not work properly sometimes - angling the photo at right angles to how I want to see it. As a music player i don't think it is anything special - maximum volume can come across as quite quiet on some recordings. It's a pain to adjust the volume while playing music: first press the menu button, then slide finger across screen to activate controls then adjust volume setting. Not exactly as simple as rotating a wheel on an iPod classic!
Video picture quality is good, but fast forwarding and rewinding is tricky to control since the scroll bar is so small you can ... Read More:

Well I've had the iTouch for several months now and I have to admit it is much better than I first thought. I'm not an Apple devotee so it took me quite a while before I decided to buy one. What swung it for me was watching the keynote address about the iPhone SDK and the potential for future applications and gaming.
To be truthful I wasn't looking for a music player, more a replacement for my aging Palm PDA. So the news that you'd be able to run applications and even write your own was enough for me to pick one up.
I can't say much about the device as a music player. To be honest my Sony mp3 player is probably a better device for this as it has excellent noise canceling headphones and can be used in the pocket without ... Read More:

Having spent the last lord knows how many month saying that i couldn't justify buying an ipod touch ,and anyway it will probably be a pain to transfer all my stuff to it,i gave in ,,,,and i am sooooooo glad i did!!!!!
It arrived just before my lunch break at work , so i just had to go home to charge it etc so i could spend the evening putting the contents of my ipod mini onto it (plus all the stuff that wouldn't fit on my ipod mini (only 4gb)),,,,,well drove home(just under 10 mins) plugged in into the laptop followed a few prompts and before i knew it i was back at work having completed a 1 hour lunch break (and no i wasn't late back) ipod touch in hand and fully loaded .
The moral of this story ,,,,,i don't care what ... Read More:
