I just picked up an iPod today and I'm really liking it - except for typing on it ~ PITA
This is my first portable music player and I've never had a cell phone, and don't want one, so this seems to be the perfect match for me. I can go online with it, come here, check e-mail and bring my music into the shop, truck and not have to worry about lugging CD's around. It also has a camera and video camera built into it, and from just playing around with it tonight, it looks pretty good.
Anyone else have one? What apps have you found useful?

Does the 4th gen one have a microphone (I assume so if it has the camera).
If so, Guitar Toolkit is fantastic. VERY accurate tuner, exhaustive chords, scales etc. in almost every conceivable tuning. Very very powerful app for not a lot of money.
The Total Guitar Tabs app is free and useful for finding chords for songs quickly.
I quite like the Cleartune tuner, nice and easy to use, the same people also do a sort of glorified metronome called Bitcount
For those moments of lyrical inspiration the free app Dragon Dictation works surprisingly well to save you typing on the virtual keyboard.

I've had an iPhone for well over 2 years. In my experience, the first few days are frustrating with the keyboard, but after that inital period, I find I actually prefer the touch keyboard to the regular keyboard on my prior device - the Blackberry Curve.
Not sure of the usage/typing stats on a Touch vs. the iPhone, so YMMV
Apps? I've got quite a few. The Kindle app is nice and handy. Things isn't bad for a todo manager. I have OmniTuner (ok) and iTick for the guitar. Besides the required games (the REAL reason for a device like this, right? :bgrin:), there are a few others I have that are neat but not necessarily must-haves.
If i want to buy an iPod Touch, can anyone told me which version is now available and how much?
