This review is from: Apple 8GB Ipod Touch (3rd Generation) (Electronics)
I love the iPod touch, and if you are thinking of buying one, I’m sure you’ll be very pleased. However, please note that there is no such thing as an 8GB 3rd generation iPod touch. Apple did not manufacture and 8GB version during the 3rd generation era. If you are buying an 8GB edition, it MUST be either a 2nd generation or a 4th generation version. Anyone claiming to sell an 8GB version of a 3rd generation unit is not providing accurate information.
For example, this serial number MC086LL/A (as described by an Amazon.com seller) is not a 3rd gen version, even though that is what they are advertising. It is probably a common misconception, but people need to know what they are buying.
One easy way to determine the version is to verify whether or not the iPod touch has a camera on the front (screen) side of the unit. If it does, this is a 4th gen model. If it does not, it is a 2nd gen model (assuming we’re talking about the 8GB version specifically).
I’m not suggesting that you should avoid the 2nd generation model. I just want you to be able to make an informed purchase decision. Good luck! Hope this has helped.

The iTouch has been hugely outdated by the iPhone, but I find I still use mine a bit for things I don’t necessarily want to use my iPhone for. I use the iTouch to watch downloaded movies, saving my phone’s battery life. I also use the notes function in the iTouch to record weights sessions in at the gym, so I don’t have to carry my phone around the sweaty gym. And when I’m overseas I love being able to hook in to free WiFi places on the iTouch and email back home for free, without having to get roaming on my phone. When I have free WiFi I also use Skype to send cheap text messages. It’s a great product for anyone who can’t afford the iPhone, or doesn’t want the phone functions. It stores heaps and is really easy to operate.

I purchased this IPOD Touch for my granddaughter for Christmas. I couldn’t have gotten her a better gift. She absolutely loves it and plays with it constantly. Great price.
