iPod Touch 8GB 4th Generation

As a Mother's Day slash Birthday gift I purchased an Apple iPod Touch for my wife. She was lacking in the new device area and really needed a new toy to play with. The purchase was a smashing hit!

The iPod Touch I learned is in it's 4th Generation and comes with some very cool features. In short and quoting the sales person at the Apple Store in the Arden Fair Mall, it is basically an iPhone without the phone aspect.

I was excited to give this to my wife because I thought the coolest feature was the ability to use Pandora as your music source while at home. No need to load the device up with MP3's or AAC's, just stream Pandora from the net. All the memory on the device can be used for apps, photos, video, etc.

Once I get to play with it I plan to use the Onkyo Remote App to control my AVR. There are some positive and negative reviews on this app so I will do a complete review here based on my listening style and usage patterns.

This purchase brings our wireless connected device total to 6. The other 5 are Kindle Fire, Nintendo 3DS, Kindle Keyboard, Panasonic Blu-ray player DMP-BDT210, and Onkyo Receiver TX-NR609.

More to come as we live with and play with this new toy.
