ZTProductions

    Well, I was at the mall today and strolled into the Apple store to see if they had the Touch, and also wanted to see the new lineup of Nanos and the classic in person. I did not see the Touch on display, as I’ve heard is the case in most stores. However, I saw an empolyee standing by the iPhone section with at first glance looked to be an iPhone, on an extreme diet. Of course, it was the Touch. I asked if I could see it and he was nice enough to let me check it out for a couple minutes. Now I obviously couldn’t sit there for an hour and learn every little thing about the new device, but a touch was enough to get a feel for the new iPod. The first thing that screams out at you is just how thin the Touch is. I couldn’t believe it, I was impressed bu the iPhone but this is just awesome. It feels solid, as Apple products do, but still I couldn’t help but picture the thin touchscreen snapping after being sat on or rolled on at a weird angle.

Another downside was that I was unable to mess around with the iTunes wifi store on the Touch because the Apples stores wifi was not working properly, disappointing, but at least I got my turn with it. I wish I could offer you more insight, the layout is obviously in most senses that of the iPhone but as to it’s exact functionality I just didn’t get the time. I did see a few people walking around the mall peeling the plastic off of their new iPods and heard shortly after that they had sold out, so get em while you can!
