Very expensive. Fingerprint magnet. File support is still extremely Apple-centric.

The second-generation iPod Touch may be overwhelming to users looking for a simple music player
Screen is still a smudge/scratch magnet; In-built speaker sounds awful.
Apple hasnt done anything strikingly wrong with the second generation Touch. At the same time, they havent done anything all that striking. Yes, its slightly slimmer and lighter, but beyond that, and the slight price drop - which you might expect ov...
App Store access means lots of new toys to play with, Still the one to beat in terms of interface and ease of use, Feels better in the hand than the original, Sleeker and sexier
Some features require the purchase of accessories, Cant store files via draganddrop, Audio via speaker is pretty ordinary
Not just an excellent media player — the addition of third-party apps makes the second-gen Touch the portable device to beat in a wide range of areas.
Includes a Web browser and Wi-Fi, beautiful design, easy to operate
Expensive

Abstract: www.apple.com/ukWith a 3.5in screen, displaying 480 x 320 pixels, Apples iPod Touch – the iPhone without the phone – has a slightly bigger screen than most of its pocketable rivals. This is a big advantage when it comes to watching video, which looks...
Abstract: Feels like were in love. The best bits of the iPhone without the phone - a superb mobile media accessory. In marked contrast to the nano, you have to look closely at the new iPod touch to spot the differences from its predecessor. The only visible p...
Touch interface, Wi-Fi, fantastic display, App Store
Overall size makes it impractical in many situations
