On the iPod Touches

[ningensmingen]

I completely agree with the Touches. They're quite pricy, even for the 8 gig, and then you're going to have those eight gigs clogged up with apps, internet access, etcetera. Not like they aren't awesome, but personally I would rather have a higher memory iPod without all the cool accessories and actually have room for my music collection for around the same price.

As for the iPhones, they're very cool. They're awesome. Just completely and totally impractical.

I got a free iPod touch when I bought my laptop and I'm pretttty much in love with it. It's only 8 gigs so it doesn't hold all my music (I mean hey... it was free), but it's just like a laptop this fits into my purse a whole lot easier: I can check my e-mail, the weather, watch YouTube videos, and do crosswords puzzles. All the essentials, haha. I think it's actually pretty practical.

8 gigs for free is a really sweet deal, even if it can't hold all your music. apple was really thinking when they decided to give away free ipods with macbooks for school, especially when they decided to make the Touch one of the options. i'm not saying they're not awesome -- i know a ton of people who have them and they all rave about them and told me i should get one because i'm looking to get a new ipod for christmas (i currently have an ipod MINI, 4gb and COMPLETELY filled). i decided to go against the touch for several reasons, one being the cost, and another being that i do not have an external harddrive and the regular ("classic") ipod can be used as one whereas the ipod touch can not. also with all the wifi capabilities the ipod touch has, i feel like i would spend even more time on the internet than i already do, especially at times when i don't usually have a computer available, like on vacations or while visiting relatives. my boyfriends little brother has the gmail application on his Touch and one day we were out
