This mp3 player has made a revolution in music. This one is truly amazing. With the design as same as Apple Iphone, iPod Touch lost only 1 major function - possibility to make a phone call, but has gained a 100 others options in music.

All iPod touch models have included the applications Music, Videos, and Photos(collectively duplicating the standard functions of the iPod classic), iTunes (providing access to the iTunes Music Store), Safari, YouTube, Calendar, Contacts, Clock, Calculator, and Settings. Later models added Mail (accessing POP/IMAP/SMTP e-mail), Maps, Stocks, Notes, and Weather, which could also be added to the earlier models with the purchase of a software upgrade.

As supplied new, the iPod touch needs a connection to a computer for initial configuration. Officially, Apple requires iTunes to be installed on either a Mac OS X or Windows operating system based computer for configuring the iPod touch. On either operating system, the iPod touch must be connected through a USB 2.0 port on the computer. The first time the iPod touch is turned on, a "cable to iTunes" graphic will be displayed continuously until the iPod touch is connected to a computer running iTunes.

To use the iPod touch for buying products at the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store via Wi-Fi, an iTunes Store account must be created in iTunes and the account details then entered into the iPod.

The iPod touch is slimmer and lighter than the iPhone. It lacks some of the iPhone's features: access to any phone network, an internal speaker, a microphone, a camera, physical buttons for volume control, and Bluetooth capability. The iPod touch uses software-based volume controls which require users to double-tap the home button, bringing up an on-screen slider. They both have the same screen size (3.5 inches) and have the same processor and graphics chipset. The iPod touch is available in a model with 32GB of storage, compared to the the iPhone's maximum of 16GB.

Of course, all those huge lines of people, who wanted to get it in the first few weeks of sale dissapeared, but every music-addict has to atleast try the new player, because it's a real relovution!
