yea it wasnt suppose to ship til friday but stores were getting shipments in as of last week and were give the ok to sell them.

this this is pretty cool... last night at the monday night meetup, i jumped online via their wifi and browsed the forum. much easier to do on the ipod then on my pocketpc phone. then i thought id try out itunes and logged in from the the ipod and bought an album. it downloaded then sync'd up fine this morning when i pluggged it into my pc...

pretty spiffy.

Me too. And I wish they had more than 16 gigs. Would be nice to off load our Flash cards onto this (and still have room left for all the fun stuff).

Just an update... Ive had my ipod touch for about 3 weeks now and man... im loving it!

its the 16g version and i only have about 2g worth of music and about 4g worth of movies (2 full length movies) on it. the safari browser with the built in WIFI is super slick. when lisa and i are out and about it picks up the local wifi fairly quickly and lets me surf. only thing is that it doesnt support flash/java and i need to see if theres some add-on that will allow it.

i uploaded all of our vacation photos from our honey moon blog to the ipod and showing friends and family the shots is very cool and easy. the larger screen makes it so much nicer to share shots...

anyways.. just thought i would chime in and let you guys know what ive thought about it so far...

only drawback is since its so new... there arent any hard case or pouches etc specifically made for the Touch yet...

Abel,

Check out Ripoffs. They have cases that fit just about EVERYTHING.
http://www.ripoffs.com/
If it's the same size as the iPhone, they have one on the front page of the web site.

Not sure if it works on the itouch, but my friend was taking regular P&S photos and they would instantly show up on the iphone via wifi (or bluetooth?), maybe through an installed app.. now that would be sweet if you could do the same on a DSLR, shooting at small JPG.

i'll confirm the exact details. now that i think about it, this was indoors where his macbook was open and in sight. so images from the p&s (a canon)were probably transferred to image capture (or another program) on the mac, and then somehow transferred to the iphone. just thought it was pretty cool.
