I want an iPod Touch
I’ve been using my sister’s 1st Gen iPod Touch for the past few days now and I finally decided that I want one for my own. I’m not much into mp3’s so a regular iPod won’t cut it. I don’t think I’ll be using it that much for watching video or playing games either; I have my PSP for that.
I want one cause it can do things that I want for a portable device, Internet browsing via WiFi (so I could check NBA box scores on the go) and an e-book reader that could fit into my pocket. Actually, I’ve been using it primarily as an e-Book reader with the Stanza app so I could get back to reading bestsellers that I missed.
Good thing my birthday’s near. 
Besides, my wife’s been hogging my PSP lately playing Need For Speed so I need another device to keep me preoccupied when there’s a lot of waiting to be done.
How about you? What’s your ultimate portable electronic gadget that you want right now?

now that you installed stanza there, i might be using it very often when i return to US. at least meron ng use ang itouch ko…
calvin: or palitan ko na lang ito ng brand new iPod shuffle plus a used Palm Zire 71.
I own a 1st Gen iPod Touch named Cindy. I compared it with my friend’s 2nd Gen iPod Touch and I liked the upgrade they did.
Ang masasabi ko lang…GO GO GO! Bili na! or better yet, Magpabili na! LOL.
As for me, my target is a Nikon D60 (which I will get next week!) and Olympus 1030sw.
calvin: ayan narinig ka na ng misis ko. bibili na yun. hahaha pero mas-ok pa rin yung d60 kesa ipod touch.
ako rin.. i want ipod touch.. they’ll release the 2nd Gen next year here sa Beijing. I bought 5 First Gen as prize for our agency event pero sana puwedeng i-rig para sa akin isa.. hahahaha! Pero mas ok yung iphone if you can get it unlocked.
calvin: di pwede sa akin mamahaling phone remember? hehehe.
I’ve got my eyes and heart (need I add) set on the iPod touch 32GB. I think I squarely meets your requirements for reading and browsing. To know more you might want to visit http://store.ipodyourlife.co.in/Gift-an-iPod.aspx?channel=blogs I found it a fairly comprehensive site.
naks.. danda yan! I have a new slr …weee!
calvin: mas maganda yung slr mo.
how do i know if an ipod touch is 1st gen or 2nd gen?
calvin: 2nd gen has volume control on the side and the back casing is plastic while 1st gen is shiny aluminum.
Sige, I’ll buy you iTouch for your birthday. I’ll pay for the wrapper with matching gift tag and ribbon basta kaw bahala sa pambili ng iTouch ha. Ako na rin mag-gi-gift wrap.
I just got Nestor today!!! My D60. hay, guwapo-guwapo. Ano pang hinihintay mo??? Bili ka na ng iPod Touch! Dun ka sa official apple store bumili para mai-try natin. hehe.
calvin: mahal sa apple store
me too! hehe
hay.. i wanted one as well, kaso fairly small in size comparing it to my ipod video, kaya isip ko, wag na lang. hold off muna ko, til i have the funds to get the iphone. =)
calvin: well small talaga if you’re gonna put tons of video on it. ganun din naman iphone
may phone nga lang na kasama hehehe.
i want iphone. but ipod touch will do. XD how much does ipod touch cost now? do you have any idea how much it’lll cost this xmas? discounts! yay! lol
calvin: the cheapest i could find for a 16GB is 15k which is almost the same as that of the online store in the US ($299). sa online store natin is about 19k. yung 15k na price nakita ko sa seller sa philmug.
may sariling file format ba ang stanza? can i convert my current ebooks in .doc or .pdf to be readable in stanza?
calvin: yup stanza can open .doc files and text-only .pdf files. pero photo-based pdf di pwede. ok pa rin .lit format for stanza.
great! it can read even microsoft ebooks (.lit) pala. now i can retire my old O2 mini hehehe
calvin: yup! na-retire ko na nga Palm Zire ko eh. hehehe.
