my brother has one, so i was one of the lucky few who didn't have to spend over 200$ to realize what a waste of money these things are.
if browsing slow internet on a gameboy-sized screen is your thing, then i guess the ipod touch is for you, but really... i'd wait until the one with a camera built into it inevitably comes out. and you know it will. ;)
i just find them annoying, but i guess in a pinch they could be useful.

The ipod touch along with the iphone are overpriced pieces of s... oops, maybe I should be quiet on that! Wouldn't want a flamewar here.

i have a list 100 items long, of things that i would rather spend $250 on.
i would rather buy $250 of dog food. and i don't even own a dog.
i just really think the iphone sums up everything wrong with the world today. and the funniest part is that people still get sucked into thinking it's a must have item.
i know for a fact i'd be bored of it within a week. and really, you will be too if you buy one.

Most apple users are sheep anyway.
Oops! Uh, I didn't say that!

they always say that mac users among college students are on the rise, and that is only because you get a free ipod if you buy one. what i find hilarious is that it's usually the smallest one. comeon, apple can afford to hand out a pricier version.
and yea most ppl r switchin over to iphone. it's not only not worth the trouble, i'm happy with my t-mobile contract. only thing is i do need a new phone cuz my sidekick gets on my nerves sometimes!
and also, my zune is a 30gb, brown, and was on special for $100. i don't care what color it is, not even the brand, but I am completely satisfied with it. never has given me problems except for that 1 time on the new years glitch. also the other problems that i have had with it are do to my almost 7yr old computer that miraculously is still running!
