Is there any issues with them. Pretty sure I am going to treat myself. Any reason not to get a secondhand one?

I had 3 refurbs of the 1st gen all of which got sent back. 2nd gen is a year old w/o issues.
Fantastic prodduct IMO, I use mine a lot for wifi browsing (and feel no hence need for a laptop at home), music and videos are good too. Obviously no point in getting if you see yourself getting a iphone, which I didn't at that time...

No chance of me getting an Iphone unless I can get a deal on my current contract which I doubt.
I will be trying to get a second hand one though. The one in the classifieds at the moment looks a little optimistic.

I got a refurbed 1st gen from Apple, really like it.
Mainly bought for watching videos on planes and the like, but lots of other cool things about it too.
Bear in mind that they are fussy about file formats for vids, you might need to transcode existing stuff to play it back on the touch.
Cheers, Rich

great little devices.
some very good and cheap games for them.
so good, my daughter has now taken mine.Posted 2 years ago # -
i've got a 2nd gen - its very good. when my phone contract expires next year I will upgrade to an iPhone though I think
agreed that classified one seems overpriced - I went for s 32gig as I want to have lots of music on mine. I think 8gig is a bit weedy TBH , you'll soon fill that with music/ video/ games/ photos
download handbrake for your PC / Mac (I think you can get a PC version) if you want to convert DVDs to iPOD friendly format

http://www.hotukdeals.com has a few deals atm - nothing crazy though, £10 off for 8g @ Apple too.

I'd get a 3G, faster processor than even a an iPhone 3GS.
Or there could be one with a video camera out in the spring if you believe macrumors.
My 1G is still going strong after 2+ years, though 16GB ain't much these days. 64GB FTWPosted 2 years ago # -
Hey Soma!
I'd recommend one just for the Guitar Tools App for six quid! Great little machine BUT!.... Make sure you can download & run the latest version of iTunes onto your computer first, 'cos if you can't, you won't be able to use it (or you'll have to initialise it through a works PC like me :0/ )

that guitar tool app looks good - but presumably the tuner would only work on an iPhone (or you would need to buy some kind of plug in mic to make it work)
