Apple iPod Touch (2G):
In terms of ipod, there are always the same design as successful and in line with such a high-end player. Yet if you look closer you notice that the back rounded to hide a very light weight of 0.5 mm from the previous version. In the end, the iPod Touch portable video is the end of the time this did not prevent him from now on to include a loudspeaker. Not surprisingly, it does not expect miracles and delivers a sharp and suffocated. Anyway, it's a pretty nice addition to watching several short videos. The grip makes it more secure, the iPod Touch is large enough to handle easily with one hand and small enough to fit in your pocket. Finally, a new button also appears on the side to adjust the volume directly without going through the touch screen. It saves the battery while listening because the screen can be turned off.

The Player
To be honest, the iPod Touch is our favorite player. Yet it does not first end of a comparative portable video, blamed limitations unforgivable from Apple that locks his star player to death. First complaint, it is impossible to read a video format other than the MPEG-4. Exit is the DivX and Xvid unless acquire software to make a long conversion of all your videos. In fact, iTunes, which is also mandatory for transfers, is not capable, an attic! Of course, Apple wants to fight against piracy that is to his credit but it will then review its trade policy. I do not know about you but I find it hard to see me impose a format for me to buy high-priced movies on iTunes.
Second limitation is still difficult to justify, it is not possible to use the storage space on the iPod Touch to pick up documents as you would with an external hard drive or a simple USB key. Some will say that Apple intends to protect his player from hackers, but in reality, they need not look so embarrassed that this and the cracks are everywhere on the Internet. Again, these are the genuine users who are turkeys of the joke.
