ipod touch 3rd generation
If there is one thing that Apple is good at, it would be their ability to set high standards that would leave competitors panting in their efforts to catch up. While all other competing portable media players are scrambling to catch up on the 2nd generation model, Apple has up the ante with the release of the latest, 3rd generation Apple iPod Touch.
The new Apple iPod Touch now comes with three capacities, namely 8GB, 32GB and the 64GB model, with prices ranging from around $299 – $499. This is a big price range that will appeal to a larger segment of the market.
One of the major features found on the latest generation of iPod Touch is the faster processor speed. Apple announced that they are 50% faster that the previous generation of devices. They also come with many new features where most of the improvements are most noticeable on the 32 and 64 GB versions.
Genius Mixes is one of the new features on the 3rd generation iPod Touch. This feature automatically helps you create a genre-specific play-list based on your song selection. Thanks to the faster processor speed playing games, surfing the net and running applications is now a speedier and more enjoyable experience. The headphones that come with the device now also have a built-in microphone that helps you use the various new voice control features on the device. Design wise, the new model remains unchanged. All in all, the new generation of iPod Touch has managed to impress even the most uptight of tech critics. We give this device five stars (out of five stars) for its functionality, great performance and modest price tag!
