I got myself a MiFi dongle from Three. Got it unlocked and using it with any SIM to connect to the internet with my iPod. This was really the iPhone killer for me. Just bought another MiFi yesterday and the deal has unfortunately expired now:

It is really a tiny device that you stick a mobile SIM in and it turns into a WiFi hotspot that you can connect to wirelessly and surf the web.

Apps store is linked to your Itunes account so when you download skype (just do a search in the appstore) it asks for your itunes username and password. When you enter it correctly it installs. easy as pie

Note the button for download and install is where it says free in green, click once it changes to install. click again and it asks for your itunes details. then it installs

I have a large library of my CDs ripped to WMA files. Was really reluctant to re-rip them for my iPod Touch (Apple iPod products will not play WMA files) . Discovered yesterday that I could import/convert the whole WMA library into the Touch in one go with a few steps and left for some hours to run. The quality is fine. Now have a music library on the Touch which is a very nice way to use a portable MP3 type player.
