I've managed surprisingly to come into a 16Gb iPod Touch G1 for what I think is a fair price. I didn't realise there were two generations though, and now I'm considering if an upgrade is worth it.
I like Bluetooth, but probably wouldn't use BT headphones. I won't miss the external volumes controls enough to warrant the tradeup cost. I'm ambivalent about the external speaker. I think that's all the functional changes.
I plan to use it for checking emails in the house, or quick browsing rather than using the PC, to listen to music and watch ripped TV/movies. I also plan to use it as a network remote for my SqueezeNetwork (a Boom). Maybe GPS, is that on the G1?
For these uses, will the higher specc'ed CPU/RAM of a G2 make much difference to me?
P.S. Sorry if these are basic questions, but I haven't even plugged it in yet
Edit: P.P.S my first post in the Apple forum, I've never owned an Apple Product before!
