At last, it's here! I just saw this from the internet months ago. Hearing news that there will be a new IPod Touch in the market and now it's available. I really wanted one ever since I saw it in YouTube.

New features that are present on the second generation are built-in speaker, a sleek new design, volume controls, longer battery life and it includes Genius. To learn more about it you can visit Apple's website.
In addition to this, the price for the new generation is almost the same or even cheaper.
This is what I want as my birthday gift but I think this may wait because of other important things that I need to prioritize. But sooner I'll get hold of one.
