If we were to buy a ipod touch that we would like to download: angry birds other games and movies, don't need the latest and greatest ipod touch, which one would be best for us? TIA
If you don't want the camera you could get the generation before the current, but the savings are not that much. I would get the current generation. If you plan on having movies make sure you get at least the 32 GB memory. Apple does have some referbished ones on their site a least they did a few days ago.
I would also check out Apple's refurb section. I think it is a substantial savings to buy an older generation iTouch if you don't need all the bells and whistles. I would get at least 32 gb. We bought 2nd generation ones awhile back and saved a lot of money. They work great for what we want (music, movies and games).
Dh bought me the 3rd generation just before the anouncement of the 4th generation ones and I love it, he got me a 32G and I think I only have it half full and have a couple of movies on it, over 1,000 songs, 4 pages of apps, facebook, and close to 3,000 pictures.
I would also recommend checking out refurbished ones, I have heard great things about them.
