Great screen, Innovative multi-touch user interface, Excellent video quality, Good audio quality, Near-complete Internet device, Usable even when charging via USB.
No Mass Storage mode, Complete iTunes dependency, Minor software flaws, No support for popular video formats.
Heres again where Ill start lamenting about the whole iTunes dependency that all the iPods users face. And its even worse for the Touch. For the other iPods, I could at least find alternative software to transfer my media, but apparently all those ...
Sleek design, Fast interface, High on interactivity, Good sound, Wi-fi enabled, Impressive coverflow
Can be managed only through iTunes, Battery life a bit iffy while viewing videos
Good news! After a long wait we finally got hold of the iPod Touch. Apples behavior was strange indeed when it announced the launch of the Touch in September – it didnt release a single piece in the country. The gray market is abundant with re...

The iPod touch is a beautiful product, inside and out. Unfortunately, its lean capacity keeps it from reigning as king of the iPods.

Belle interface intuitive, iTunes Music Store directement depuis liPod, Navigation sur Internet, Accès aux vidéos YouTube, Multifonctions (Agenda, Mail, etc.)
Impossible de régler le volume à laveugle, Aucune télécommande fournie, Ecran moins bon que celui de liPhone, Incompatible avec les anciens accessoires vidéo
Le design, Lécran tactile, Le module WiFi, Le navigateur Web, La fonction dachat de musique
Le prix
Beau à tomber, fin à en rendre jalouses toutes les reines des podiums, et équipé de fonctions toute nouvelles, liPod touch ne laisse pas de glace. A son contact, tout sens critique semble sévanouir. Profitons du sursis qui nous est gracieusement offe...
Si nous devions ne noter que linterface, cest sans aucun doute que nous lui mettrions la note maximale. Mais il nous faut tenir compte de quelques détails. Pour commencer, lautonomie est un peu faiblarde si le wifi est activé. Le calendrier, dans l...

Dos brillant, Pas de bluetooth, iTunes obligatoire, Bundle trop léger !
Réduire le Touch à un simple lecteur MP3 serait une erreur. En effet, le système embarqué ouvre de grandes possibilités comme le montre un récent article permettant dinstaller différentes applications sur la bête. Par défaut, on trouvera une calcu...
