Bottom line
The second-generation iPod Touch includes features that are light-years ahead of the competition, its design has improved, and its price has finally come down to earth.
The iPod Touch is a beautiful product, inside and out, but prepare yourself for sticker shock.
The latest iPod Touch is the best iPod ever, and as close to a phoneless iPhone 5 as you can get -- but its high price makes it a tough call versus cheaper tablets with larger screens.
Though the updates are subtle, the third-generation iPod Touch leaves its competitors in the dust.
