Re: iPod Touch

It's basically a smaller iPhone with the phone and camera features removed.

Re: iPod touch

iPod touch is avaiable in 8GB or 16GB.

Re: iPod touch

The classic is priced really well now. £159 for 80gb and £229 for 160. It'll be interesting to see how Creative/Cowon etc. respond.

Re: iPod touch

Zen have just released their new player already, the Zen.

Comes in at 8GB & 16GB. And maybe 4GB as well, not sure.

Re: iPod touch

It's looks the doggies danglies, but surely they could go bigger than 16gb.
The previous gen went to 60gb, so on that aspect it seems like a step back.

Or is it just me?

Re: iPod touch

It is because this is flash-based player, whereas the iPod Classic is HDD models. I think they are slowly phasing out HDD, since Zen, Sony etc have all gone that way.

So I think come iPod Touch 2G you will get bigger sizes.

Re: iPod touch

I think I wanna kill someone now. I just paid £240 for the 80gb one a few months ago.

Creative have responded (and prior to the the announcement) very well!. Their media player (I think it's the Zen that ash mentioned) takes SD cards and can play divx and xvid movies

It also has a FM radio and microphone....well worth a look imho.

Personally, I don't see any point in investing in the iPod touch until flash prices decreases. What they are selling for 16GB is actually very good value atm as these flash drives were going for £450+ a few months ago.

That is right, but rumours are that if you order you might get it before

Re: iPod touch

does the new Nano still work with Nike+ ?

 

[ash]

Re: iPod touch

Yep should do!

Re: iPod touch

Well I just got mine! 16GB model for around £245ish.

Quite liking it, I'm going to have to get used to the keyboard, and the touch interface, but so far loving the web browser, and YouTube!
