So, Apple says everything improves, but how far can we go to trust this update. Those of us that are iPod touch users have felt the hard end of the stick so to speak with the first iOS 4.0 most of us lost the thing that is most needed for the iPod and that is battery life, so my question is will Apple fix the battery life? On the other hand the features of the update are awesome and those that know how to jailbreak have enabled the multi-tasking features and picture background, but to tell you the truth, we got that on 2.x already, so Apple is a bit slow.
Another thing about this battery issue, Apple on the support forums that I've seen haven't really addressed this problem. So that being said, this seems like to me just a big ploy to get those of us using the old hardware to go for the new "usable" hardware. I say it's a good ploy, but how many of us have the money to buy new hardware? For now I say that we wait, beings the new iPhone 4 came out, there's bound to be something newer, that's going to be more awesome than the iPod Touch.
