Apple iPod Touch (second generation, 8GB)
QuickTake:
Pros: The second-generation Apple iPod Touch has it all: music, videos, photos, podcasts, e-mail, Web browsing, Internet radio, games, Nike+, Wi-Fi music downloads, and an App Store for adding thousands of custom features.
Cons: The second-generation iPod Touch may be overwhelming to users looking for a simple music player; audio quality is average; and iTunes software is required.

Review: Apple's second-generation iPod touch
Comments:
The 2008 iPod touch inches closer to the iPhone line while retaining its iPod branding. It gets new audio input and recording features, volume controls, a speaker, and a full assortment of bundled apps, including Nike+ support.
Review Verdict: No GPS or Bluetooth

Review Verdict: No GPS or Bluetooth
QuickTake:
Pros: Super thin and comfortable to hold, with a substantial, sturdy construction. High quality, bright, scratch resistant screen. Full software features, with Nike+ and audio recording (still to be delivered). TV output for movie rentals and downloads. App
Cons: Polished back will scratch if not protected. New speaker isn't very high quality. No GPS or Bluetooth.

Latest update to mobile entertainment device is incremental, more affordable
Comments:
The latest iPod touch features integrated volume controls, a built-in speaker, curvier case, and more capacity for the same price. It's an incremental improvement upon the original widescreen device.
