Please Recommend a Good MP3/MP4

Doesn’t the full touch screen phones break much faster? Is it difficult to type fast on them?

Great! Lets start collecting!

is there anything similar but cheaper ($) then the ipod touch?

I’ve had the iPod Touch for almost a year now, and I absolutely love it. It only has 8 GB of storage space, but that’s perfect for me- I only use just over half of that anyway. The touchscreen is really convenient and easy to use. Internet access is good for a quick check of e-mail or the like, but I don’t use it for regular surfing because it’s just too annoying with the small screen. You have to double-click on the portion of the webpage you want to read, then it enlarges, but if you want to find something else, you zoom out and then zoom back in on what you want. It would drive me crazy if I used it for more than two minutes at a time. Another “extra” of the iPod Touch are the applications you can add, some free and some for $9.99. I have a bunch of free apps plus one paid app, 2 Across, which is a database of crossword puzzles. I love filling out the puzzles on the little screen. It was a lifesaver while I was in Israel because it meant I always had something to do on long bus rides. I also find that my iPod Touch has much better battery life than my old iPod nano. That’s all I can think of at the moment, but if you have specific questions feel free to ask.

I actually just bought a cheap case for my iPod yesterday; I didn’t have one before and I accidentally dropped it, so now it has a crack in the screen 🙁 My fault.
