PureMobile sent us in a 16GB iPod Touch for the purposes of this article. This is one of the few times an - essentially - mp3 player comes with a powerful operating system (other examples include the Linux-based Archos and Sandisk offers). Read on for more.

The lack of avi support (namely divx and xvid)in the ipods has always been a turn off for me. I had this same issue when I bought my mac mini long time ago. Was expecting that I could just download divx and play my collection of avi file I've collected over the years only to find that quick time hates .avi so I used VLC.
I want to get an iPod touch for what amounts to a portable internet tablet, but hate the idea of having to transcode movies to play on it. So right now i'm up in the air about getting an iPod touch and having better internet or getting a archos 605 and having better media but worse internet.
