Ipod Touch

[Nymins]

The 8Gb model isn't 3rd Generation. Its still 2nd Generation and still the same speed.

The 32Gb and 64Gb are both 3rd Generation and use a new CPU, GPU and more DRAM to bring it up to iPhone 3GS speeds.

Is this true? I keep getting conflicting reports, many shops etc. say the 3G 8GB model is the same speed as the 32 and 64GB

Yep, as said, the 32/64GB are the faster newer versions.

I bought my other half the 32GB (£200 from Gatwick!) and I'm glad i did. I know she isn't that fussed with the speed as much as I am but when you whack movies on it it quickly fills the space. Future proofs it a bit more than the 8GB also, there may be 3G touch and 3GS iPhone specific apps down the line.

Kinda like when Homer got Marge a bowling ball! I prefer to play games on her touch as it's faster than my 3G!

Thanks for the info guys.

So the only difference between the 2G and '3G' 8gb touch is that the '3G' comes with OS 3.0 pre installed?
