"Superb gadget flawed by iTunes software"
on by mgtstudent2010Pros Very thin compared to Zune
Integration of bluetooth and wifi
Endless list of applications (free and paid)
Not just an MP3 player, picture viewer, and movie player--but a mini netbook/internet tablet
Great sound quality
Awesome touch screen
YoutubeCons Device attracts finger prints very easily
iTunes software is "clunky" takes some getting used to
Expensive accessories
No flash player, however can still view Youtube videosSummary All things set aside I am very pleased with my purchase. Coming from the Creative and Zune world of MP3 players I am very impressed with the iPod Touch 3rd generation 32gb and was a worthwhile upgrade. The iPod Touch allows internet browsing, applications, streaming internet radio (AOL, Pandora), and even the ability to watch Youtube videos! However if you currently own an iPod Touch 2nd generation, aside from the faster processor, you may want to wait. Bottom-line if you want a simple MP3 player then look elsewhere, on the other hand if you want a multi-function MP3 player/ video player/ picture viewer/ internet browser/ portable office/ etc... then the iPod Touch is for you.

"4th Generation without the camera"
on by bradanter96Pros Enough capacity for average listener/app user/video watcher.
hours of entertainment
WiFi
Pocket-Size
I can go on forever..Cons Short battery life
Summary I definitely recommend this, the only reason to buy the 4th generation is the camera. That's about the only difference.
Conclusion, I would recommend this to a friend. -

-WiFi
-built in speakers
-Location services
-Easy to use
-Light weightCons -no flash
-harder to type on keyboard when device is vertical.
-no cameras
-no built in microphone
-built speaker quality no the greatest
-WiFi sometimes slows down sometimesSummary I love my iPod touch. I have all my music on it , some movies / TV shows and a lot of great apps. A top quality product by Apple. I recommend getting the 4th generation if you can for the built in microphone and dual camera's, slightly slimmer body and faster processor. However the iPod 3rd G is still a great product
