This or Ipod Touch: Which one should I choose?

The iPod touch is more portable, more durable and has a great OS with tons of apps, and supports a huge variety of accessories. Archos has a lousy reliability track record, an ugly user interface, and although it does support more codecs you have to purchase them separately, and they may require processing anyway. I'm certain the iPod touch will be updated, but whether Archos will support this in the future is anyone's guess.

It's most definitely worth it! I have owned the older (1st generation) ipod and finally upgraded. I love it! It's more than just a music player now. There are apps that make it a phone, facetime is really handy and I love that I can watch videos on it. I suggest the 32 or 64gb versions though as I am told the 8gb doesn't have enough space for movies. I have the 32gb and absolutely love it!

I have ipod touch, not iphone. My understanding from other reviews that the iphone is heavier and doesn't stay upright. The ipod touch stays in place. Just do not like the additional hook up.

i'd go with the ipod classic if only music. even though it is very bulky you can get it for like 250 dollars and like 60+ gb which is more than enough

I have about 23gb in music, and closing in on 100gb in movies. I have the 80gb Video iPod. If you're like me, you're gonna wanna wait for at least the 128gb iPod

I upgraded after purchasing my Twist. The upgrade was free. So far so good -- except that I still hate Windows 8 in all its forms. If you play computer games the touch screen can be useful (and fun), but for work it's mostly just annoying. On the other hand, it looks as if it will be the only option for at least a while. If you want the technology, buy the Apple version.

The latest ipod touch. The size, weight, and screen are just fantastic not to mention the apps.

You can make calls on this device. It's an android smartphone that uses the Gingerbread operating system. Ipod touch uses apple's iOS and you can't make calls as far as I know. Can refer to google to see the difference between the two operating systems but I believe both can do the same basic things(watch videos, play games, listen to music).

An iPod Touch with a 30-pin port is compatible with the top. Otherwise you will use the Aux-2 headphone jack plug-in.

I bought a 4GB Nano 2 years ago because I only had 3GBs of music. Now I have 16GBs. Getting an iPod may give you the bug to listen to more music. With the ease of switching between songs and creating playlists, any mp3 player will drive you to experiment a little with your music taste. I also could not have cared less about the pictures or video (still don't) - but I got really into podcasts, and those take up space (if you like radio, check out podcasts - better quality, fewer interruptions). Bottom line - you will probably regret not spending the extra $50. The 80GB is a little more delicate than the nano (spinning hard drive vs. flash memory), but if you are just going to keep it at home it should not be an issue.

I ended up returning this dock and purchased an Altec Lansing that I am much happier with. I was using an iPhone 3GS at the time and I would think any iPod Touch should work. It might come with an adapter but you shouldn't need to download anything.

I have never owned an Ipod. I am looking for the best version that is specifically for music. I do not want a lot of bells and whistles, I want good sound and to know up front that it is fairly simple to load or download music. Does anyone have a preference for what version I should go for? No:Photos/games/other stuff.. just music.thanks.

It is a very difficult decision to make. There are advantages and disadvantages to both. It sounds like you might be good with the SGP as it does allow you to use an SD card which is great for those that love lots of music, movies, pictures, etc. You could have as many cards as you need, lol. The iPod is such a beautiful device, but I have to say the newest SGP (4.2" version) is looking really good.Maybe we can get some true input from someone that has both or at least used both quite a bit.
