    Don't rule out the refurbished 16 gb that you can still get from the apple web store. It comes with a new battery, the same warranty, is eligible for applecare, and looks brand new out of the box. Being refurbished, it will also save you a chunk of money.



    I got one in September last year and have had no problems.

    I'm fairly certain that the stores are no longer offering the 16gb. You have to get a refurbished model from Apple or buy one from e-bay or something.

    If you're going to use the iPod Touch primarily as a game player, you should look into the 32GB and 64GB model for performance. Those are the ones using the faster chipsets (supposedly up to 50% faster) from the 3Gs iPhone, while the 8GB uses the old chipsets from the original iPhone 3G.

    Ultimately, its your choice.

    Apple doesn't hightlight it but the current 3Gen hardware (meaning the 32 and 64GB) Touch are faster and support OpenGL 2.0. So if you game on your Touch it's probably good that you buy a 32GB model over the 8GB model which has the same hardware as last years models (including the 16GB)

    So far as I gleaned from the keynote, the list is:

    -Faster CPU (should be roughly the same as the new 3GS processor)

    -OpenGL ES 2.0 graphics support

    -Apple inline remote support

    -VoiceOver (voice control)

    -Increase in capacity up to 64GB
