Watch your movies and TV shows on a brilliant 3.5-inch display. Use the revolutionary Multi-Touch interface to flick through your music in Cover Flow. And anytime you’re itching for more entertainment, just tap iTunes to browse and buy on the fly.
Apple 64GB iPod Touch
Music
With room for up to 14,000 songs and up to 30 hours of audio playback time, iPod touch gives you nonstop musical entertainment.* And the new Genius Mixes and Voice Control features add even more ways for you to experience your music.
Genius Mixes
Now the Genius feature is even more powerful. Introducing Genius Mixes. All you do is sync iPod touch to iTunes, and Genius automatically searches your library and finds songs that sound great together. Then it creates multiple mixes you’ll love. These mixes are like channels programmed entirely with your music.
Genius Playlists
Say you’re listening to a song on your iPod touch that you really like and want to hear other tracks that go great with it. Just tap the Genius icon. Genius automatically finds songs on your iPod touch that go great with your selected song and makes a Genius playlist for you.
Voice Control
You listen to music, and now your music listens to you. The new 32GB and 64GB iPod touch models feature Voice Control. So you can tell iPod touch to play songs from a specific playlist or artist. Or speak simple commands such as “shuffle,” “pause,” and “next song.” You can even ask for the name of the track that’s currently playing (and hear iPod touch answer you).
Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic
The new 32GB and 64GB iPod touch models come with the Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic, which are perfect for using the Voice Memos app and Voice Control.
Movies + TV Shows
Your very own private screening awaits you on iPod touch. Watch the latest film release or an episode of your favorite sitcom anytime you want. Store up to 80 hours of video and get up to 6 hours of video playback time on the new iPod touch.
iTunes
Part of what makes iPod touch so amazing is that iTunes is literally at your fingertips. A Wi-Fi connection and a quick tap are all it takes to get instant access to millions of songs and thousands of movies and TV shows. Not to mention applications, audiobooks, and free podcasts and iTunes U lectures. Preview and buy that album you’ve been wanting. Rent that film everyone raved about, or make it part of your collection. iTunes on iPod touch is your doorway to endless entertainment possibilities.
Wireless
If you’re somewhere with a wireless network, iPod touch instantly recognizes it. If it’s free Wi-Fi, you’re good to go. Launch any one of your Wi-Fi-dependent apps, such as Safari or iTunes, and you’re on. Some wireless networks may require a password, but iPod touch has that covered, too. Just enter the password once, and iPod touch remembers it. So the next time you’re within range of that network, you’re connected automatically.
Safari
Safari — an advanced web browser designed for Mac and PC computers — also comes on iPod touch. Safari on iPod touch lets you carry the full-size power of the Internet in your pocket. Just connect to a Wi-Fi network, and you can use Safari for nearly everything you do using a web browser on a computer. In fact, web pages look exactly the same on iPod touch as they do on your computer.
Email on iPod touch looks and acts just like email on your computer. View your messages in rich HTML, including attachments. Mail recognizes file types such as .doc, .jpg, .mp3, and many others. And setting up Mail is easy because iPod touch automatically enters settings for popular accounts including Gmail, MobileMe, Yahoo!, AOL, and Microsoft Exchange.
Keyboard
Typing on iPod touch is easy. That’s because it has an intelligent keyboard that predicts and corrects words as you type. Writing something lengthy? When you turn iPod touch on its side, the keyboard switches from portrait to landscape with larger keys and more room to type.
Maps
Know where you are and where you’re going with Maps on iPod touch. If you’re connected to a wireless network, you can find your location and get a list of turn-by-turn directions. Maps also finds points of interest from a keyword search. Say you and your friends have a craving for pizza. Tap Search, type in “pizza,” and Maps shows you restaurants nearby.
Social Networking
iPod touch is the only iPod that helps you stay connected. So anytime you find yourself saying “I need to make that my Facebook status” or “This deserves a tweet,” pull out your iPod touch. Social networking apps such as Facebook, LinkedIn, and AIM are available for free from the App Store.
Performance and Graphics
The new 32GB and 64GB iPod touch models feature improved performance and support for OpenGL ES Version 2.0, which lets developers create games with superior graphics. So games launch noticeably faster, and you experience richer, more lifelike textures and detail.
App Store
Make your iPod touch even more amazing with the App Store. All you need is a Wi-Fi connection. Browse over 75,000 games and apps, and buy whatever you like with just a tap.
Genius Recommendations for Apps
A new feature of iPod touch makes finding cool new apps even easier. It’s Genius for apps, and it works just like Genius for your music. Tap the Genius icon and get recommendations for apps that you might like based on those you already downloaded.
Accelerometer
The accelerometer inside iPod touch detects when you rotate iPod touch from portrait to landscape, then automatically changes what you see onscreen. But the beauty of the accelerometer comes into play when you’re actually in play. For instance, in racing games where your entire iPod becomes the steering wheel. Or balance games, such as Topple.
Multi-Touch
What sets iPod touch apart from traditional handheld gaming devices is its revolutionary Multi-Touch interface. It means you’re not just playing a game, you’re interacting with the game. Turn your fingers into an expert skateboarder. Test your reflexes as you’re challenged to tap through the beats of a song. You can even transform iPod touch into a musical instrument such as a drum set or a guitar. It’s all thanks to the brilliance of Multi-Touch technology.
Wireless and Bluetooth
You already know how much fun it is to play games on iPod touch when it’s just you. Multiply the fun by playing with your friends over Wi-Fi — whether they’re two cubicles or two continents away. You can also use Bluetooth for close-range head-to-head gaming.

* Pros Improved storage capacity. Responsive capacitive screen. Fluid video playback. Svelte looks
* Cons Poor-quality headphones combined with expensive upgrade option. Pricey
Apple's celebrity PMP has had plenty of superlatives poured on it – thinnest, highest capacity, most likely to get a judging seat on X Factor – but it's also a tad expensive.
Even so, the new third-gen version’s 64GB solid-state drive might just be enough to convert iPod Classic music hoarders, and should tempt plenty of newbies besides.
Beefed-up processor and graphics
On the surface, not much has changed on the third-gen Touch. But inside that impossibly thin shell, beyond the slick capacitive multi-touch screen, lies a beefy 800Mhz processor and souped-up graphics.
New firmware features include voice controls via a microphone on the headphone flex and support for stereo Bluetooth.
The reason so little has been tweaked is that nothing can begin to compete with browsing music in Cover Flow, class-leading audio, fluid video playback, seamless internet browsing, YouTube support, over 85,000 third-party apps and, of course, native integration with the best media organisation software on the planet, iTunes. Phew.
Touch of class
Multi-touch on the capacitive interface is, as usual, a joy, and the rounded back and tapered edges accentuates its trim proportions. Physical volume controls, a hold switch and that iconic 'home' button all remain, while voice controls have been added for would-be pocket fiddlers.
Not the best of buddies
Unfortunately, though, Apple's white headphone buds still fare poorly.
Not only that, but the addition of volume controls and a mic for voice instruction means you're left with choosing between something like Sennheiser’s MM50s, or sacrificing functionality for better sound. It’s time for the third parties to step up to the plate.
It may not have the screen real estate of Archos' PMPs, but the 3.5 inches on offer deliver an all-encompassing video experience with top-notch blacks. Apple is also clearly angling for iPods to be taken as serious portable gamers in the league of the PSP and Nintendo's DS, and we think it can be.
If you're looking for a jogging partner, £300 is a bit steep, but if you want the full shebang your cash can't snag a superior PMP.
