| 606130 | 2007-10-28 23:22:00 | I got ipod touch the day they come out, have had mine for about 4 weeks now.... on the good side. the touch screen is very nice, easy to read even in direct sunlight. the web browser is the best portable web browser I have ever used. nice full screen video. on the bad side. less battery life than expected (8 hours music or 3 hours video) the wifi music store wont let you update podcasts. no flash support in the browser. interface can be a bit slugish sometimes. havent found a way of making an "on the go" playlist. if anyone has question about it feel free to ask. |

| 606131 | 2007-10-28 23:33:00 | Wait for version 2 :) I gather flash is too much of a drain on the system, similar too the iPhone - according to Apple. | winmacguy (3367) | ||

| 606134 | 2007-10-29 02:19:00 | Have you tried hacking it yet? As for the battery - 8 hours music? Please. Reviews have shown (for music anyway) you can get MORE than the expected (22 or something). I've seen reviews where they've gotten 25 or so hours. Try turning your wi-fi off and the brightness down. |

I have done the firmware hack, and its all good. i must say that turning off the wifi would probly halp the battery life a lot. |

| 606138 | 2007-10-29 03:32:00 | The point was ya can't feel them either, Though I do supose the volume control on the headphones is a good enough work around if youir willing to accept the limitaions that causes. What did it cost? |

| 606139 | 2007-10-29 03:48:00 | $479 The iPod touch has a screen lock to avoid unplanned surpises when it is in your pocket. I usually look at my iPod when selecting songs or adjust volume. |
