Hey,

Just wondering if this is still a decent purchase, and what kind of spec it has.

For example, is it 3G or anything like that? Does it have wifi connectivity?

Can you update the OS to the latest version, and how will that effect it?

Regards,

I bought one a few months ago for £90 of fleabay. I would say it is not worthwhile because you can only update it to OS 3.13 (which is not the latest OS) and all my favourite apps couldn't update to the latest version (which are designed for OS 4.0 and upwards).

It would make a good gym iPod (which is what I bought it for) for music and videos, but certainly not for apps. It has wifi but does not have 3G.
 
If it's to be used as an iPod then it's pretty good. If you have any sort of preference for the latest and greatest then your money would be better spent elsewhere.

I used a 3G iPod the other day and it felt slow (in my opinion) after using iPhone4/iPad/4G iPod - basically stuff with the A4 chip in.
