Battery life as well? I've read somewhere that mentions the 2nd Gen's battery is better at holding a charge. Not sure if the battery life could be improved via a firmware upgrade though (like the zen micro).0 -
Ohhhhh seemed to have really missed the boat on this one
. It was just what I was looking for as a Christmas present for ds.
I am in the Chester area and have rang the check stock phone number and put in about 10 stores all out of stock. If anyone knows where there are any in a 20ish mile radius please let me know.
Many thanks0 -
I upgraded mine to 2.1 first updating to 2 and then using itunes to 2.1
Plenty of free games/applications via application icon on the ipod0 -
I am looking for one too
Will Argos get more stock?

One thing to bear in mind about the Ipod touch V2(this is V1 with older firmware) is that it may not charge or replay in a docking station as I found out with another docking station that came with attachments for various ipods which work fine in ipod mini and ipod touch v1 (with latest firmware) but not in v2 with same firmware I believe they changed the pins of at the bottom whsilt it may connect it wont charge or replay
This ipod on offer doesnt have the latest firmware not even version 2.0 which costs £5.99
EDIT just tried V2 and V1 in another 2 year old docking station and it works charges/plays but not in another one I tried various adaptors
Make your now free ipod dock below
You just need original box and packaging (some tape) and the touch adaptor that it comes with
