If you want to really keep track of what you walk during the day, I would highly recommend this pedometer. I got it on a whim just to see how far I walked during the day just at home. It has forced me to do a little more and more everyday as far as aerobic exercise.

Okay, when I read all the great reviews for the touch, I was a bit worried about them all being apple junkies. I am not an apple junkie, in fact, this is the first apple product I have owned, but I have to say I love it. This device is amazing. It blows my old PDA out of the water completely, and yes, I did buy this as a PDA first, music player second. Some of the calendar functions are not as nice as my PDA, but some functions are better. For example, you can’t put in a repeating event on a certain day of the week each month (like 1st Tuesday each month). However, it does sync with Outlook (iCal on Mac) so I can just input those appointments on my desktop computer. The calendar function does have many cool features that my PDA didn’t, though. The touch screen keyboard is SO much easier than using a stylus. The apps are endless and awesome. The MP3 player is awesome, and I can use it at the same time as most other programs. OS 4 coming out will even allow for bluetooth keyboards! I can’t imagine anyone buying this and not loving it. Just don’t buy the 8gb, it’s not enough room. The only thing that I really wish it had is a camera, but it’s not that big of a deal compared to the multitude of other functions it has.

Live Like A Fruit Fly, a book i recently found on amazon, is far more practical.

I absolutely love this series. Sure it’s meant for teenagers, but I am a 33 year old mom of 2 and I just love it.

The product deserved 5 stars. The customer service by amazon deserved minus 5. I ordered it on a Friday and after 6 to 10 calls I receive it three weeks later after writing to the better business bureau. Amazon still has not aplogize for the amount of work it took me to get this product.

I purchased one of the single core models like this for personal use, and was so impressed, I got one of these dual core models to use in my “day job.” I wanted to experiment to see how well these beasties stood up against the other full sized PCs we use. I started out using Ubuntu Linux, but plan to try XP on it as well.
This barebone computer is NOT complete; minus RAM, a hard drive or Compact Flash card, an optical drive, monitor, keyboard and mouse, and operating system. Adding all those items can easily cost more than the basic machine, depending on how much you have sitting around. Since I had plenty of monitors, keyboards, and mice, I only needed to add RAM, hard drive, and optical drive to be ready to install Unbuntu. (I actually had a spare new SATA hard drive as well.)
Installing the parts was about a 20-30 minute task. The case and motherboard are quite well made and solid. I haven’t installed a Compact Flash card on the motherboard, but that would require removing the motherboard due to the case size and positioning of the connector. Installing, updating, and running Ubuntu on it is a breeze. The wired network connection works quite well. I rarely use wireless, so haven’t tried that.
While some people like to complain about fan noise, I come from an era where computers were a lot more noisy than they are today, and that doesn’t make much difference to me. I don’t find the fan to be a problem.
Benchmark tests I have seen rate the overall average performance gains from the dual core model at about 30% over the single core Atom. I can say that I noticed a very clear difference in how the Flightgear flight simulator worked on the different models. The dual core performance gain with that software was very apparent.
This is NOT a game machine or a 3D rendering machine, so don’t compare it to those. It is a small, low power, basic computer that works well for most desktop uses, as well as many media uses. I have run photo slide shows while also playing WA
