I got an older 2nd gen 8gig mc model a week or so ago from craigslist. My first thought was, "this is awesome! compact touch screen with web browsing capabilities on the ipod brand I already enjoy." But after about a week, I'm not so impressed.

Are there any offline functions for an ipod touch? As long as you're near a wifi connection, great. But otherwise, its feels useless.

You use apps listen to music, watch videos, and use everything on the hard drive offline. You know, like a computer?

Use it in a vehicle to play all of the music you want? Take it with you on a run? Use it any time you are near a wifi connection (as you said). Bring it with you on vacations to show your family all the pics of you and your friends/family/children. There are many many things that it can be used for. its not called the iPodGameboy. It isnt meant just for fucking around on the internet with. If that is what u wanted it for, then you are correct, you bought the wrong product.

Playing music, videos, watching images that you moved from iTunes. There's a notes section where I tend to keep some tabs on, as well as a calendar to just check the dates that are far in the future. Other than that, there's really nothing else you can do with the iTouch.
Venture Capital is better off spent on lottery tickets rather than investing in E-Sports; you'll get a far better return. The difference is simple: Koreans are tryharding at the game, foreigners are tryharding in real-life.

You can get apps on it, like games and such, and use those while it's offline I think o_O
you are perfect porcelain.

If you want to browse the web everywhere, then getting a iPod was not a great idea.

Nethack app... so good

if you jailbreak (I haven't, I'm waiting on the 4.2.1 update), you can run SNES/GBA/NES games. I hear PSX and N64 emulators are out there as well, though I don't know how they handle.
it's my first day

I have an ipod touch and 90% of the time I use it with no internet. I play games, listen to music, use the calendar a ton and read books on it
My folks were always on me to groom myself and wear underpants. What am I, the pope?

Yeah, gosh, I guess it is pretty useless...

The only think I can think of is, you know, using it to play music. Who uses their Ipod for that?
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

I fail to see how not being able to browse the web negates the fact its a MP3 player, a PMP and a gaming device.

There are plenty of great things to do with your touch, that said I wouldn't read books on it as the screen rapes your eyes.

Really sob3k, thats the best you can do? Why even post if you aren't going to try to be helpful?

nethack looks awesome, thanks myopia. I know the snes emulator is choppy as hell, but the nes and gba emulators are decent.
