The applications on this product are fantastic. The touch screen is great and has obviously been created after 'real use' trials of the product . A protective cover is a must but make sure you buy one where the 'home' button is accessible. After even one day of use you will find the touch indispensable with its contacts, mail (via wifi), notes, weather, utube, calender, appointments and loads of free applications to download. If you like the ipod nano you will love this - it's a completely new generation and it is so straightforward to use.
The only problem I had was moving my ipod nano stuff to the touch. I called the customer support and sadly found all 4 people I spoke to rather unhelpful and basically rude. The product more than makes up for it.

Hi when i go to the itunes icon it asks me to select a network, the only one that comes up is 'home' and this requires a password, well i've been doing some research and i think the password is you WEP i have no ides what this WEP is so if anyone can tell me how to access it that would be great, but you'll have to explain in step by step terms as i'm not a computer wizard. Thank You
Rating: - Great for music but not so great for Internet
I've had my iTouch for 2 weeks and absolutely love it - well, at least the music side... When it comes to e-mail and downloads (iTunes, maps and so on), I still can't access them. So this is very disappointing. I have a Livebox (Orange) and although my iTouch seems to identify the Livebox, it cannot connect to it. Tried several dozen websites for tips and troubleshooting, but in vain...
In conclusion, great for music and pictures but 0 for connection to the Internet.
Will update this, should I manage to sort the connection problem.

Bought one of these about a month ago and I take it with me everywhere!
I had lost my iPod shuffle while on holiday and was just going to replace it with another shuffle when I spotted the iPod Touch. Immediately I tried talking my self out of purchasing one because it didn't exactly fit into my budget, but seeing as my boyfriend had just spent £200 on a radio controlled petrol fueled car, I figured I could treat myself too!
My favourite feature on it by far is the wireless access. I've set my two email accounts up to it and I love that I can quickly sign in from anywhere that has wireless internet. It's pretty convenient for when you're settling into bed at night and realise you forgot to respond to that email you meant to during the day!
The touch screen is great, I never find myself having to tap too firmly or more than once to navigate my way around. The keyboard can take some getting used to, but it's nice that it has an auto spell check that fixes words for you as soon as you finished typing them. The image quality is incredible, and I love that I can store photo's on it as well.
An absolute MUST is a protective cover of some kind. And buy it at the same time you purchase the Touch because you won't make it through a whole day without scratching it somewhere without one.
The only thing I've been slightly disappointed in, is the battery life. I haven't timed it yet, but I have to charge it much, much more often than I ever had to with my shuffle. That thing would last for weeks without having to be recharged! The Touch can barely go a few hours of use before it's worn out. As long as you take the charging cord with you and have access to a computer to plug it in for a while, it's not too bad.
Other than that I absolutely love it and would highly recommend it!

There are rival products that have better storage capacity, some sound better or have the ability to handle a wider range of file formats. None of them have the killer apps, user interface, supreme build quality and style of the ipod touch. Nothing comes even close to toppling this beauty!
