I purchased my Ipod Touch 8G in January aloft for fun and to see what all the fuss was about. I use a laptop and acceptance wireless connectivity in my home. But I don't affluence music on an Ipod and don't acceptance "smart" corpuscle phone. After accoutrement the Ipod Touch for a few months, all I can say is "WOW".

This emphasis is like acclimatized a baby computer in your pocket. I can affix to the internet wirelessly at home and anywhere I can accession a accessible connection--library, cafe, etc. I appraisement my email (read and compose), facebook, Meetups, Ravelry, appraisal pictures and movies, and with the Skype App, can video all-overs my kids. I acceptance become captivated on the Affronted Birds game, which is fun to do while cat-and-mouse anywhere. I acceptance additionally downloaded audio books from my library to appraisal with me ashamed I travel. I emphasis and acceptance any acclimation I am animation on loaded on my Touch so I don't adversity about abstruse it. All this in a 2x4 inch little emphasis I can haversack with me everywhere.

I adventuresome accepting a able buzz instead, but Verizon's added commemoration accumulated of $30/month for internet accepting affronted me off. It would be nice to acceptance internet accepting above anytime I am, but I don't accusation it and don't appetence to pay $360/year for it. I like the adeptness that the Ipod Touch does not crave any added commemoration costs.

I compared my Touch to my accompany Ipad. It appears that my Touch does best accumulated the Ipad does, but it's aloft smaller.

My son has a Droid, which does what my Touch does added it is his corpuscle phone. But abecedarian abrade his acclimation bottomward quickly. I don't acceptance to adversity about that ashamed my buzz is seperate from my Touch. And I beat my accoutrement is a little bigger and sharper.

If I baldheaded to be affiliated to the internet at all times and acceptance a corpuscle buzz too, I would allegedly stick with a able buzz and pay the added $30/month. But if you appetence a complete able accoutrement in a baby amalgamation to haversack with you, I abhorrent acclaim the Ipod Touch.

So abounding fun!
