Is the iPod touch overpriced?

Considering I'll be using safari, youtube, etc and the thinness, design, touchyness, interface (there's a lot more to it than I thought), and screen, is it worth the $100 more over an ipod video? 8gb is enough b/c I never keep more than 1 video on there at a time. I mean it's no iphone but for what it does, do you think it's worth it?

everything IPOD is overpriced!
Reply:The iPod touch is overpriced, everything is. Companies have to make it more expensive than it costs to make in order to profit. Although, technology costs have been going down, and to be honest I think anyone could slap on a touch screen on a Zune. Than they could hack it to have the iPod touch interface. Add it up and it will come pretty close to what the iPod touch costs. So i guess its fair.





Do i think its worth it? No, not really. I have a computer so you can use safari and watch youtube, I can also get a cheaper mp3 player. Thats just me.
Reply:Yes it is. Even though it has many nice features it's not worth it. $299 for 8GB?? Way too much. Also all the features such as youtube and the internet only works if there's WiFi near by, it won't work. And there's about no Wi-Fi around. Also 8GB means only 5 hours of video. So, it only holds about 2 to 3 movies. Yes, the thinness, design, and touchiness will get you. But it's not worth it.





I would recommend not to purchase it, because it's a waste of money. There's many other mp4 players that are more affordable.
