Apple iPod Touch Review - Computeractive

Apple-iPod-Touch-portable-video-player.jpg

Computeractive have published their review of the new Apple iPod Touch portable video player. 'Available with either 8GB or 16GB of storage space, the iPod Touch is just 5mm taller than the standard video iPod, but the trademark scroll-wheel has disappeared and most of the front panel is devoted to the 3.5in (9cm) screen. As the name suggests, the screen is touch-sensitive, so the player can be controlled by tapping on the screen or making certain gestures with your fingers. When the iPod is switched on, a menu appears allows the user to select between the music, video and photo modes or to activate the player's wireless network connection for a bit of web-surfing – yes, it can do that too. When the Music mode is selected, the screen displays a simple list of music which can be sorted by song, album or artist. However, rotate the iPod sideways and the screen automatically switches into a mode that Apple calls Coverflow. This displays cover artwork for the albums, and you can quickly browse through them flicking a finger across the screen.'
