To Go 100PK Cables crazy
This is my first Ipod Touch and I love how it feels, it works, and the App Store. The last really makes it worth it. I hardly use the Music player except on long drives in the weekends. For which I got an over the FM streaming device that plugs into the ITouch.
Initially I had a couple of issues that bothered me no end. When I opened it out of the box and charged it through my computer running Windows XP, I noticed that the Itunes Store and Apps Store icons on the home screen were not there. After going through the manual and consulting with other Apple users at work, I realized that these icons come pre-installed and cannot be deleted. I called tech support and went through a complete firmware re-install that got these icons (took about 10-15 minutes). I lost a bunch of data but this was only one hassle of the re-installation process. More importantly I lost the Safari browser and Youtube icons after the re-install. At this point, I was tempted to return the Ipod to Amazon because I thought it was defective and that was the reason that Amazon was discounting it on its website. It was very frustrating because it was ruining the whole experience.
After a day or so, I reluctantly went through the firmware re-install process again myself (didn’t call tech support). Again lost all the data but this time everything started working. Took about 20-30 minutes because of all the data lost had to be synced again.
So, very frustrating first week but a great experience then after.
