What's great about it: Features, touch screen
What's not so great: fragile screen
This is my first Apple product (yeah I know...) and really like it. Intelligently designed features and pretty easy functioning with each. Just for song use 8GB is plenty in my opinion. For pictures and movies...would want more space. Love the black case.

What's great about it: Keeps him from running up my phone bill
Built very well. My son has broken 6 phones and this seems like it should last him a long time. Only time will tell how durable this product is.

I bought this itouch for my 2 y/o daughter's birthday and she LOVES it. I downloaded a bunch of free educational apps for her and she scans diligently through them learning and playing. Its amazing how fast a child can learn to use something. We use it on long car trips, in restaurants and when Mommy and Daddy just need some quiet time. I have the 16gb itouch for myself and decided on the 8gb for my daughter. Also great with wi-fi and battery life is just fine. A great investment, highly recommended.....

What's great about it: Size, battery life
What's not so great: Too loud, mast have iTunes
Mainly got becouse its for my business use - square app for credit cards and hase my own WiFi. Its good solid product but to my opinion if you try to install iTunes to all your computers and they all dramatically become slowe you get scrued because without iTunes you can not put much in, even your photo album or music.
The sound level are way too loud and there is no way to adjust that - so if your ears are good after few month don't complain that you start loosing your audio reception:-)
Otherwise is great product.

What's great about it: I love how it plays games, music, and videos.
What's not so great: Apps sometimes close when I run them.
Great to have around. I love its wide variety of features. Battery lasts pretty long. When I plug it in and charge it until it says it is full. I unplug it and it says that I only have 95% battery left.

What's great about it: design, features, sound quality,battery life
What's not so great: SPACE!
This is a great iPod, as far as features with the new ios 5.1.1 software update is really awesome, design, ultra fast and portable, very slim but, the chrome backside scratches very easily. The battery life is okay. The worst part about this iPod is the 8gb capacity. Like all apple iPods, the space is actually about two gb lower than it says it is. I only have about 120 songs, and 200 photos and I only have about 1.5gb left. I have had this iPod since december and overall this is a great iPod. I would recommend.

What's great about it: Easy to set up, lots of great features, extremely good-looking, very functional for work and play
What's not so great: Durability, lack of Flash support in web browser
I've had my 8GB iPod Touch for about 6 months, and I am absolutely in love with it! First off, it looks absolutely fantastic. You will notice this the second you take it out of the box. Secondly, it has lots of great features which make even the simplest of tasks more interesting and easy. Even scrolling through your music library is amazing, thanks to things like cover flow. It it extremely easy to set up email and iMessage, so staying in touch with family and friends is very easy. Facebook and Twitter apps are just two quick, simple downloads away, making communication easier than ever. The web browser is great, and allows you to do what you need to do quickly and efficiently. Even the camera is surprisingly good for such a small device, provided you are in good lighting, such as outdoors or a well-lit room. But the one thing I love the most is the screen. Seriously, this is a fantastic screen! It really does make photos and videos look outstanding. There are really only two major complaints I have about this thing: It's about as durable as a partially-melted stick of butter, and there is still no Flash support in Safari. As long as you're careful and don't drop it from more than about 3 inches, you should be fine. As for the Flash support, well... that's just too bad. Overall, I am very satisfied with this iPod, and I do not regret this purchase at all. I highly recommend picking one up.

What's great about it: Intuitive and easy to use. Ordering on-line and then store pickup was great.
What's not so great: No issues currently identified.
I am primarily using the iPod with a Bose Sounddock Model 10. This provides a great sound and a simple interface. Fills a large room with excellent sound.

Have had this iPod Touch for about a month and love it. I can get online without being parked in front of a computer. You can put lots of songs on it and I bought a Belkin Tunecast to play it in my car, since my 2007 Kia Optima does not have an iPod interface (Kia put one in in 2008!). I could put it in shuffle and drive for hundreds of miles and not hear the same song again. I chose it over the Samsung Android player because of all the accessories you can buy for iPod.
