Not a regular user of iPhone OS features myself though (don't have one of my own), so I can't really tell you if it's any better or review any of the new features. It seemed stable enough though.Anyone with an iTouch using this?

It's settled, this is what I'm getting my wife for her birthday. She's been dying for one since 2007.
Probably bad timing, as they generally release new iPods in September. Kinda like when I bought her her first iPod.

derFunkenstein wrote:OK, at this point you're just looking for a fight. I'm not going to give one. If you don't like that I call it iTouch, just bite your tongue. It's widely accepted, as I've already demonstrated. I don't really care if your feelings get hurt over it.
edit: For further clarification, I have always referred to it as an iTouch, prior to finding out that some people are so thin-skinned as to be annoyed by it. My continued use of the term isn't designed to piss people off more, it's what I call it. I'm sorry (insomuch as I feel bad for you, not that I'm apologizing...kind of like if someone died and I said "I am truely sorry for your lots") that you have a problem with it, but your problem != my problem.
End User wrote:Really, you should give it up. Why are you getting so butt-hurt over a commonly used nickname for an iPod? derFunk is not the only person that calls it an iTouch as just about every person I know that has one calls it that. Hell, roughly 7.5% of the Google searches are explicitly looking for iTouch. Don't be a dick.Give it up already. If you can't remember what the product is called then just admit it. Don't make up names.
