Ipod touch GET!
Looks sexy! Haven't actually used it yet. Finally got iTunes to stick the music I wanted on it on it...which it is doing now. I really dislike iTunes.

[edit: though I can see that it'd be perfectly fine if you started from scratch with it, and bought music from the iTunes store etc. And had a Mac] .... I have no interest in having playlists etc, I just want to list tracks by artist. I figured it would sync all the tracks with a check mark next to them, but it seems it will only sync a) all tracks or b) selected playlists. So after individually checking each song I wanted on there, I've just been through individually ctrl-clicking on them to select them to add to a playlist. I now have one giant playlist called "stuff". I really hope it'll list tracks by artist.
It'd be so much easier if I could just drag folders onto it and it would show them. My mp3 folder is already organised exactly how I want it. I'm sure I'm going about it all backwards and stupidly, and there's a much better (or automatic) way of doing it.
Another sad thing.... Seems you need a credit card to download even the free apps from the apps store. I don't have one. Doh. Someone on the internets says you can make a store account without a credit card if you use a gift card. Off to buy a gift card in awhile then.
Totally happy though, the ipod itself looks gorgeous!
[edit] ah. someone just drew my attention to the smart playlists function. hurrah!
<- smart now
