ipod Touch - Can anyone give me a reason not to buy this?

[Pushit2.0]

So do not drop the phone, what a hard concept, I thought you did not care about this stuff? A secret Iphone owner that was holding out on us.

I guess I don't see the purpose in researching something I could care less about, and in no way shape or form need in life.

By now I think you have completely contradicted this statement.

Shit breaks if you aren't careful with it... a normal iPod can break from a 3 foot fall if it lands in an awkward position, and is probably MORE likely to break being it has a HDD vs SS.

Bottom line is just be careful with your shit.

Haha I don't, I was just telling you guys what a couple friends of mine had said about their Iphones and what not. But you guys thought it was blasphemy or something so I had to back it up.

Only because I had to find facts and such because you didn't believe what I had heard from Iphone owners was legitimate. Just had to back myself up, ya know?

I guess. :wedgie:

I havent heard a great deal of good about the iPhone either other than its so fun to play with. My old roommate was the first to get the iPhone at MOA and hes already had to send it in twice and he worships his Apple stuff. After seeing all the BS hes gone through with his Mac Book and iPhone I wont ever buy anything from them besides first or second generation Nano's because they are cheap to replace when they break.

Ok first off I did not know the touch was Flash memory. I stand corrected on that.

But funny how you say about the old Ipods. I right now have a 40gb 4g Click wheel paper weight. Because of this HDD problem. 100 dollars will fix it. But I do not have the cash for it. Oh and the damn thing is scratched up too. But after I fix it...I wont drop it again ... I am buying a hard case for it.

I bought the 16g touch tonight and it didnt work out of the box.:lol:

Took it back and exchanged it and all is good now. Pretty nifty little thing. My first ipod and really first mp3 player for that matter.

I would say that the internet is almost as fast as my laptop and it is really easy to use.

Now to upload a shit load of CDs so I can use the thing.

If youre worried about durability Ive got an iphone and I do NOT baby it, I use it just like I would any of my other phones and I'd rather get the most use out of it and just buy a new one if I break it instead spending more time babying it than using it. So far Ive dropped it from about 3-4 ft quite regularly since I knock it off the counters at my work all the time, and today I dropped it pretty far down a deep vent but I managed to fish it out and it was unscathed except maybe for a scuff or two :)

I almost caved in and bought one on Newegg last night. I stayed smart though and held off, I need to buy some evo brembos and maybe the AEM F/I C! Car comes first!
