I got caught in the sudden downpour, so I decided to check out the iPod Touch at Myer
Melbourne Apple Shop. The iPod Touch is basically an iPhone, without the phone.
I liked the nice bright shiny screen. The touch-sensitive screen wasn't bad. The lack of scroll bars in Safari was a bit weird at first, but scrolling by a flick or a finger was quite intuitive. When you reach the bottom, or try to go past the top, the screen bounces, as if it were rubbery! :)
I managed to read most of (the first page of) Gizmodo using my thumb to thumb/scroll the page.
The onscreen keyboard was quite easy to use, even with my fat fingers, but for heavy typing, the two thumb approach didn't quite work out.

iPhoneじゃありません。iPod touch(32GB/第2世代）です。
ケースは第1世代用のレザーケースを用いてます。
↓コレね。

第2世代iPod touchに第1世代用のケースを使うと、
光受センサーが使えなくなるのと、
サイドのボリュームボタンが押しにくくなる問題があります。
・・・が、それでもこのケースが気に入ったんで購入しますた。
7色のラインナップから選べるものステキ。
第2世代iPod touchに対応しないため、在庫限りの終息品なようで残念。
昔、同じくAppleのNewtonが欲しくてﾀﾏﾗﾅｲ時期がありました。

でもNewtonって凄く高価なオモチャだったから買えなかったんですわ。

ワタシは昔からこの類いのタッチパネル式PDAが大好きで、
ケータイもパイオニアの全面液晶タイプのをPDA的に使ってた↓

更にその後は純粋にPDAとしてB-tron内蔵なBrain Pad Tipoを使ってた↓

・・・Brain Pad Tipoなんて誰も知らないだろうけどぉ（苦笑）。
その後はWindowsCE機の日立ペルソナHPW-50PADを使ってたっけ↓
ascii24.com/news/i/hard/article/1999/10/19/605025-000.html
このオレンジのペルソナ、タッチパネル液晶なんですよね。
でもWindowsCEの操作性の悪さにアタマにきて、
燃えないゴミの日に捨ててしまったよ。マジで。
・・・で、ようやく辿り着いたのがこのiPod touchですよ。
本来ならiPhoneって行きたいところですが、
家族で契約してるケータイがauなんでiPhoneが使えない。。。
なので、ってコトでiPod touchにしてみましたが、
うーん、やっぱiPhone買えば良かったかな、と。
だってネットに接続してないと本領発揮できない端末なんですもの。
「ああ、ネット接続さえできればアレもコレもできるのにぃ！」って、
ちょっと悩ましい端末です＞iPod touch。
ワタシの住む札幌では、fon利用者も多く無いようですし、、、
うーん、iPhone欲しいぞぉ（苦笑）
My new iPod Touch. After many apple-free years I bought an iPod Touch ... and guess what: I love it. It's my 3 Apple machine ever. (I had two Apple pc's earlier.)
At last, you have a really cheap charger for the iPod shuffle! you can charge it when you play Xbox or PC (if you have the cable)
I'm still looking if i can use it as a memory for the Xbox or if it can play music while charging. See shufflehacks for more.

iPod is a brand of portable media players designed and marketed by Apple Inc. and launched on October 23, 2001. As of 2008, the current product line-up includes the hard drive-based iPod classic, the touchscreen iPod touch, the video-capable iPod nano and the screenless iPod shuffle. Former products include the compact iPod mini and the spin-off iPod photo (since re-integrated into the main iPod classic line). iPod classic models store media on an internal hard drive, while all other models use flash memory to enable their smaller size (the discontinued mini used a Microdrive miniature hard drive). As with many other digital music players, iPods, excluding the iPod touch, can also serve as external data storage devices. Storage capacity varies by model.
Apple's iTunes software is used to transfer music to the devices. As a jukebox application, iTunes stores a music library on the user's computer and can play, burn and rip music from a CD. It can also transfer photos, videos, games, and calendars to iPod models supporting those features. Apple focused its development on the iPod's unique user interface and its ease of use, rather than on technical capability. As of September 2007, the iPod had sold over 110 million units worldwide making it the best-selling digital audio player series in history.[1]

the 3rd gen ipod nano. it's tons better than the last ipod i used, a 4th gen ipod which is about to die on me. this nano is not mine though.
Aunque algunos rumores apuntaban a que el iPod Shuffle iba a experimentar una actualización (algunos decían que iba a aparecer un modelo de 4 GB o incluso que el Shuffle iba a rediseñarse o hasta desaparecer), Apple ha decidido mantenerlo con la configuración y el diseño actual, aunque han decidido renovar los colores de nuevo.
El nuevo iPod Shuffle ya está a la venta y se entrega en un plazo aproximado de 24 horas. Si alguien pensaba que el Shuffle había muerto, parece que andaba equivocado, ya que Apple sigue teniendo planes para este pequeño reproductor. Personalmente creo que para los que escuchan pocas canciones o los que suelen hacer deporte mientras escuchan música, es el iPod ideal.
Een iPod Nano bovenop de iPod Touch. Qua breedte niet zo heel verschillend, maar het scherm van de Touch is een stuk groter.

Did I forget any important event, color or even a whole product update? Especially the iPod (classic) was really difficult to find information and dates about, so I get confused some time.

Will be available for download as PDF soon.
One is mine and the other is not. The iPod belongs to a friend's. No, I am not an iPod person though I am an Apple fan. The LifeDrive I hardly use. Not so used to organising with a PDA. I am using it to store some pictures, listen to some songs and play block game sometimes. Any other times it's just left alone collecting dust in my room.

I still think the iPod is a miraculous bit of technology. Plus, it's so cute.
Mine has this quote from Friedrich Nietzsche engraved on its back: "Without music, life would be a mistake." Totally.
The box the iPod Touch came in. Great to see as much design went into the packaging as the product. Wonder what it did for Macy Gray's sales!
