The iPod Touch marks a huge advancement in the digital media player market. It's simplistic UI and extremely fluid touch motions make using it very enjoyable. Unlike older touchscreen devices, you don't simply "click" on something. You can drag it rotate it, etc. as if you were physically interacting with it instead of just moving your finger across a screen. Flicking through huge lists of songs doesn't get old, and zooming in on a photo is always enjoyable.
The touch screen has it's downsides though. Since most people take their iPods with them wherever they go, you'll miss just reaching in your pocket and hitting "pause" or "next" without having to take it out. In the winter this can get quite annoying, taking your glove off your hand to turn the volume down isn't enjoyable. This isn't a problem with the touchscreen itself though, just a limitation.
Most people by now understand how to app system works. You can download them either from your computer or directly from the iPod Touch through wi-fi. The apps are what make the iPod Touch what it is. It takes the iPod to a level beyond a simple MP3 player, it becomes an appointment manager, game system, to-do list, internet browser, etc. In other words, it's almost like having a mini-computer in your pocket. As amazing as it all sounds, it does have limitations (which are again more of a result of the product's main use, not a design problem.) The internet browsing is decent, but I wouldn't want to do anything more than checking up on the latest sports scores or weather on it. It isn't meant to replace your laptop. Apps can be very helpful, but many times you'll have to pay a fee for some of the more popular ones.
Lastly, the design. The iPod Touch rests perfectly in your hands, and using your thumbs to navigate through the screens feels very natural. The all black front and chrome back is timeless, unlike some of the other, more colorful MP3 players on the market. That shiny back, like all iPods, is notorious for collecting an insane amount of scratches. I bought a cover for it called InvisibleShield, which has done an amazing job of protecting it without any added bulk (much better than the silicone cases which are thick, look bad, and collect dust.)
Overall, this product is one of Apple's biggest innovations to date. As technology gets more and more efficient, future models will only continue to get even better.

Love it! I can put all my CD's and 6 DVD's on this ipod and still have space left! Great for road trips, waiting in airports, or camping when there is no electricity and you want to watch a movie!
