I've been needing an excuse to upgrade my old 30gb 4th Gen iPod Classic which is within 1.4xgb of being maxed out. Now that my work requires me to know all sorts of tricky tips and magic steps I went and got me a 64gb iPod Touch.

The only difference between the Touch and the iPhone is the Phone. I would have preferred the phone but don't ever plan to touch ATT with a 10 foot pole.

That's southern for "I'm not going near them." I'll spare you all the piccies since the Touch is not exactly brand new you all know what they look like.

I'm just tickled to death to have all my music, 2123 of my favorite pics and still have 31 or 32gb of room left. Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Did you guys know that 'Apple' spelt backwards is 'Satan'?

You know the part of that article that speculates on the hook being in the iPod compatible content? Well guess what?

Of my 5388 items in the library, 22 were purchased in iTunes.

The rest came from my CD collection (~2200 or so) and Russia.

The reason I got the iPod Touch is because it's cool. And when OS 4.0 comes out it will be cooler. And when the ATT exclusive contract becomes wkipedia history, the iPhone will be the coolest ever, more cool than when it first came out in 2007. That's cool!!!!
