Apple iPod Touch 16GB scored:
9.1 out of 10
Fabulous fun and funky to use, Mac at its best. Nearest you'll get to a PDA for Mac. Recent software upgrade seems to have cured audio clipping heard on some units. Plenty of free downloadable applications available with new ones being added all the time.
Speaker in ipod is tacky phone type hence low score for sound. Through your own headphones (or even apple supplied) sound is excellent. Won't copy-paste in any application.
Internet access, 24hr battery life, coverflow.
Unreliable, slow, prone to freezing, takes an age to do turn on, can't be operated with 1 hand, requires a lot of effort to do simple things like change volume, had features removed that were present in the iPhone and only removed from this for product differentiation (like the email, calender, Google maps etc), the keyboard is to small and fiddly to be useful, the mirrored back that scratches easily unlike the matte aluminium back of an iphone or the 2G nano,fingerprint magnet, bundled headphones are still useless, the 16GB version is overpriced. All in all a disappointment, I returned mine due to it being faulty and I wont be buying another.
