Jenn in CA Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Hi ladies. I have a brand-new, unopened 8G 2nd gen iPod Touch sitting on my desk. However I could trade it for a 3rd or 4th gen (+ $100) tomorrow at the Apple store. Would it be worth it? The one feature I might like is multi-tasking, but is that worth $100? I don't need any more than 8G memory. Also, I've been a die-hard Palm user for 9+ years. I LOVE databases (HanDBase), my high-powered calendar program (Date Book 5), and my shopping list organizer (Handy Shopper). None of these are available for the Touch. (Well, HanDBase might be) Could anyone tell me about their AWESOME Touch calendar or database/shopping list programs? I want high functionality! Otherwise I might just keep using my Palm. The drawback is that we just got new computers, and my Palm has no driver for Windows 7 so I can't sync it. (DH's laptop has XP but he takes it to work) Thanks in advance!

StaceyinLA Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Cuz I think it'd be worth it - they have added the face time and maybe a camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LG Gone Wild Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 8 GB goes fast, really fast. I am low key user with just a handful of apps. Upgrade. I use "." tracker, a word game, two Majongg games, a prayer app, audiobooks and songs. I am nearing my limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jade Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 Definitely upgrade. I used to have a Palm and am so glad that I have an iTouch these days. So fun to use and more options than a Palm. Go for it1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EarleneW Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 I would upgrade to at least a 16 gig. I have a 32 and honestly don't have a ton on there and am already over 16 gigs. I do want the new one though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristusG Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 Definitely get more memory. 8GB will get eaten up quickly. Even my small kids each have 16GB Touches and they are 3/4 full. And a Touch is way better than a Palm in my opinion. Sooooo many apps to choose from! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There may not be as many available NOw -- but that has to do with the unpopularity because they could not keep up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
