Looks can be amazing

Retina display, a blast from the future.
There are lots of reasons you won't want to take your eyes off the Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation). The 960-by-640 backlit LCD display, for one. It packs 326 pixels per inch, making it the highest-resolution iPod screen ever. To achieve this, Apple engineers developed pixels so small--a mere 78 micrometers across--that the human eye can't distinguish individual pixels. Even though you can't see them, you'll definitely notice the difference. Text is remarkably sharp, and graphics are incredibly vivid.
Apple A4 processor, more power to you.
The Apple A4 chip is behind, or rather underneath, all the fun you can have on Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation). Apple engineers designed the A4 chip to be a remarkably powerful yet remarkably power-efficient mobile processor. With it, Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation) can easily perform complex jobs such as multitasking, editing video, and placing FaceTime calls. All while maximizing battery life. And fun.
Gyro + Accelerometer, smooth moves
Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation) just learned some new moves. It now includes a built-in three-axis gyroscope. When paired with the accelerometer, the gyro makes Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation) capable of advanced motion sensing such as user acceleration, full 3D attitude, and rotation rate. Translation: more motion gestures and greater precision for an even better gaming experience.
Two cameras. Double the fun
Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation) captures video with two built-in cameras. It shoots amazing HD 720p video from the back camera. And with its advanced backside illumination sensor, it captures beautiful footage even in low-light settings. All while the built-in microphone records conversations, music, or any audio at the same time. And on the front of the iPod touch, the built-in camera is perfect for making FaceTime calls and shooting self-portraits. It's surprising how much fun can fit into something so small.
Multi-Touch, control at your fingertips
When you put your finger on the Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation), how does it just start doing what you want it to do? It's a chain reaction, really. The Multi-Touch display layers a protective shield over a capacitive panel that senses your touch using electrical fields. It then transmits that information to the Retina display below it. So you can glide through albums with Cover Flow, flick through photos and enlarge them with a pinch, zoom in and out on a section of a web page, and control game elements precisely.
Tap for a more instant instant message
Take "LOL" to the next level and actually see friends laughing out loud. Or bring "XOXO" to life when you blow someone a kiss from miles away. FaceTime on Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation) makes it possible. FaceTime works right out of the box--just enter your Apple ID and email address. Or create a new email account just for FaceTime. Using FaceTime is as easy as it gets. Say you want to start a video call with your best friend over Wi-Fi. Just tap the FaceTime app and find her entry to start the call. An invitation pops up on her iPod touch or iPhone 4 screen asking if she wants to join you. When she accepts, FaceTime begins. It's all perfectly seamless. And it works in both portrait and landscape. See how much fun you can have.
