Reader Reviews : Customer Review: 4th Generation iPod touch

User Rating 3 Star Rating (19 Reviews)

By , About.com Guide

The 4th generation iPod touch adding a lot of features from the iPhone 4 to its already impressive package: FaceTime video conferencing, the high-quality Retina Display screen, HD video recording, and more. But what are the results of those additions? Is this the best touch so far, or have too many features spoiled it?
