I was given this for my birthday (I'm mid 40s) early 2009 - it was my 1st MP3 player. Have to admit that I was not sure what to do with it at first. My son had pre loaded it with music and the odd 'Friends' episode and I made all the right noises at the time without really knowing what to do with it!
9 months later, I am now in love. I do a fair amount of travelling and this gadget (next to my Tom Tom!) continues to excel. Be it music, podcasts, tv series, films, news, sports updates, skiing conditions, maps, weather etc, it continues to make light of potentially long dull days. I have just spent 18 hours in a car over the last two days in europe and the podcasts (through a cheap itrip) kept both my wife and me entertained for hours - it even stopped me getting wound up in hour traffic jam! Every loving wife needs to buy her husband one of these!

Awesome bit of kit. What can one say after sitting in a cafe in Southern Spain and surfing the net whilst enjoying a latte....

Having had an Ipod classic which stopped working after just 15 months and then a 'refurbished' version which lasted not quite a year I tried to dissuade my son from purchasing another Ipod. Won over, however, by its style and the new 'touch' gadgets I was over ruled and a 16gb Touch was purchased in September. Yesterday, after less than 2 months, it has given up the ghost - broken - won't even switch on! Why oh why do people buy these things - they are not built to last - please don't be swayed by the looks and gadgets - and if you do buy make sure you take out some sort of breakdown insurance - you are sure to need it!!

I'd like to keep this review brief and down to a few key points, as there are a lot of long reviews on this page already.
1) The interface really is as good as it looks.
It is extremely smooth, exceptionally intuitive and virtually perfect. Not only does it look amazing, but its very efficient. The only one tiny flaw I find is that if the name of a song is above a certain length, it is truncated with no way of viewing the full song name. I don't ever find this to be a major problem, though.
2) The screen is not as prone to scratches as you might think.
I have had my iPod Touch for a few months now, and while being a careful owner I wouldn't say I've gone out of my way to protect the screen. Desipte this, its still as unblemished as when I bought it.
3) If your music collection isn't organised (correctly tagged, including album art), be prepared to spend time organising it.
While not essential to have everything nicely organised, the iPod Touch is a vastly better machine when everything is. Only then do you really appreciate all the thought that has gone into the interface.
To summarise, I would recommend the iPod Touch as an excellent mp3 player. It is extremely expensive and its easy to think that the money is just being spent on stlye, however this is not the case. Your money is being spent on the most easy to use, efficient and user-friendly interface yet seen on an mp3 player. An absolute joy to use.

Firstly, I want to let you into a secret...I'm one of Apple's biggest fans, so this review could be slightly biased!
That out of the way, I could gush on for ages about how sleek, how sensual and how truly stunning this incredible little gadget is. But I'll start with the slightly negative. One of the things that's annoyed me with this is how easily the back gets scratched. I'd had it for almost a week now and only taken it out the house about twice - and already the back looks like I've scraped it across a wall, no matter how hard I've tried to prevent it. However, I've ordered an accessory kit which comes with speakers, three silicone cases, a screen protector, an armband and a lanyard (not to mention a handful of adapters and chargers - Kiicks Accessory Kit For iPod Touch) so hopefully that will sort that out. Another thing that gets me, as Mr Mcclure also stated, is the lack of a power adapter! It's ridiculous, Apple make a fantastic piece of kit and sell it for £230-£250 and neglect the flipping charger! That said, this beautifully constructed work of art is one of the best ways to spend £230. I am utterly in love with my iPod Touch!
To conclude, if you're looking for a sleek, sexy and increasingly popular upgrade from your previous iPod, then this is the way to go.
However, I wouldn't really recommend the Touch to any technology-lacking MP3 buyers.
Hope this helps :)
