Apple iPod Touch 32 GB (2nd Generation):

If you are looking to get yourself the best MP3/media player in the market (and have some extra cash to spare), get yourself an Apple iPod touch (32GB 2nd Generation). To date, there are no other player in the market that comes even close to matching the features and performance of the Apple iPod touch. Here is a quick review of this little marvel.

I don't believe that there is ever such thing as 'enough storage'. If you can afford it, you should get the model with 32GB of storage. The 32GB will give you nearly 40 hours of video, 7000 songs or about 10'000 images. Due to the extra storage, the Apple iPod touch (32GB 2nd Generation) is a little bigger than the 8GB and 16GB model, measuring at 5x1.2x3 inches and weighs at just 8 ounces. Read more below...

The Apple iPod touch (32GB 2nd Generation) retains the signature back stainless steel plate that is really pretty to look at. As it is prone to fingerprint smudges and scratches, it is best to get a cover for your player. This new generation iPod have some few design changes from the original version. It now sports a sleeker design and looks thinner than the original.

The touch-screen, audio and video playback on the Apple iPod touch (32GB 2nd Generation) is just flawless. The response from the touch-screen is always instantaneous and don't remember the last time I experienced any lag on this device. Apple added speakers in the new generation mode. The audio quality of those speakers was acceptable (with much room for improvement). Music playback through a set of good headphones/speakers was, as usual, very impressive.

The popularity of the Apple iPod touch in the past couple the years have spurred the development of lots of software for this device. There are now a wide variety of games that you can download from the internet to your player. The Apple iPod touch (32GB 2nd Generation) is also compatible with Kindle e-book formats. There is also a Nike + iPod feature that helps you track the progress of your exercise routine. Just insert the Nike + iPod sensor (sold separately) to your shoes and the iPod touch will record down data such as calories burned and distance. The internet browsing experience is as good as it gets on a handheld device. The mobile Safari browser was very intuitive and easy to use.
