      by Online Shopper
    • Pros: The second-generation Apple iPod Touch has it all: music, videos, photos, podcasts, e-mail, Web browsing, Internet radio, games, Nike+, Wi-Fi music downloads, and an App Store for adding thousands of custom features.
    • Cons: The second-generation iPod Touch may be overwhelming to users looking for a simple music player; audio quality is average; and iTunes software is required.

    • Product Rating: 4 star(s) Review: Apple's second-generation iPod touch
      by Prince McLean
    • Pros: Super thin and comfortable to hold, with a substantial, sturdy construction. High quality, bright, scratch resistant screen. Full software features, with Nike+ and audio recording (still to be delivered). TV output for movie rentals and downloads. App
    • Cons: Polished back will scratch if not protected. New speaker isn't very high quality. No GPS or Bluetooth.
    • Comments:
      The 2008 iPod touch inches closer to the iPhone line while retaining its iPod branding. It gets new audio input and recording features, volume controls, a speaker, and a full assortment of bundled apps, including Nike+ support. ...

      by Tim Gideon
    • Pros: Stunning, sprawling glass display. Access to App Store and iTunes Store via Wi-Fi. Built-in Internet browser. New Genius feature builds playlists for you.
    • Cons: Very expensive. Fingerprint magnet. File support is still extremely Apple-centric. Watch the iPod nano (4th Gen) and touch Video Preview!

    • Cons: Internal speaker tinny; screen looks a little dingy; video playtime not up to Apple's estimates; doesn't charge from older accessories; video out requires expensive cable.

      The latest iPod touch features integrated volume controls, a built-in speaker, curvier case, and more capacity for the same price. It's an incremental improvement upon the original widescreen device. ...
