Excellent

8.7

out of 10

CNET Editor's rating: 8.7 out of 10
Reviewed by Donald Bell
Review date: 9/17/07
Release date: 9/14/07

The good: The Apple iPod Touch has a large, video-worthy screen, a cutting-edge interface, and Wi-Fi Internet, e-mail, and music download capabilities.

The bad: The iPod Touch may cost too much for you, depending on your needs. It has a small capacity for a portable video player.

The bottom line: The iPod Touch is a beautiful product, inside and out, but prepare yourself for sticker shock.
