I was out at the local store to day and I gave the Ipod touch a try
after being a past iphone 3GS user. It is the worst, cheapest most
rickety product on the market.
the home button sounds like its gona break its so cheaply made
the load time for a simple app is 50% slower
load time on anything is un-acceptable
as far as the i- everything is concerned the Iphone 3GS is as
good as it gets. Don't get an Ipod I repeat, do not get an ipod
you will feel like you got ripped off at the quality!
Get Iphone 3GS if your looking for an apple media device
hands down.
you are comparing apples and oranges. no one is going to get an iphone to just use as an ipod
I almost did... You get a camera and all the same features for around the same price as a touch... settled on a touch though

Yeah, I guess that's the thing... and I just generally dislike their products...with all their products, there is something I prefer to it...
iTouch - Zune
iPod - Zune
iPhone - Storm (with an upgraded OS and Screen fix... both are free...)
Mac Book - Lenovo IdeaPad series (namely, my Y550)
Nothing they have is anything I've ever loved.. and I've owned or used a lot of their products.
From my own experience, the op's post is inaccurate. I picked up a 3rd gen 32gb Touch yesterday and it is noticably faster than the prior 1st and 2nd gen models that I previously owned. It seemed just as fast as the 3GS and even some of my games loaded faster than the same exact game on my friend's 3GS.

the new ipod touch has a faster processor than the first and second gen ipod touch, and it has the same processor (with a newer model number though) than the 3gs
I can imagine it being a LITTLE slower, but not so slow you would complain or anything. My Touch was pretty snappy, and it was a 2g... I can only imagine that a 3g Touch or 3GS Phone would be quicker.
