My parents bought me this as a christmas present. I have owned iPods most of my life because I have always been a fan of how they work.

The Apple app store has got so many apps that go onto your iPod and a lot of them are free! The free apps are good quality and you can spend hours just playing on your iPod. It provides a lot of space so you can have music, games and a few films on there if you happen to go on a long journey.

The iPod features a camera and a video recorder, which are both fantastic additions. The camera can be used for 'Facetime' where you can talk to people via video. This is a pretty popular idea and it is used by many people.

The touch screen is brilliant and it works very well without you having to press really hard like on some touch screens. The bad thing about this though is that you can only use your fingers, you can't use a stylus. There are some styluses that claim they work but I have tried them and you have to press really hard and they don't always work. Another bad things is that it gets covered in fingerprints. However, Apple do provide a very useful cleaning cloth for when this happens.

A fantastic feature of the iPod Touch is that it has a rechargeable battery so you can either plug it into the mains or plug it into your computer. Therefore you don't have to spend a fortune on batteries like on old mp3 players. It is very easy to transfer pictures and music etc across to the computer, however you do need iTunes which may be a problem for some people. The battery life is also very good.

I would definitely recommend the iPod Touch, it makes a great gift for somebody that loves music.
