Thank you for the swift reply. I thought this discussion is useful for fellow touch owners so please keep it up (rather than "Yeay, i type this from my touch!" post).

1. If i'm not wrong, all the photos are optimized automatically for your touch from the iTunes when you sync them up. So the photo's resolution should not be a problem. My photos are of same resolution as i snapped it with the exact camera with the exact settings. Not all of the uploaded photos on my touch show such glitch, only a few. I don't know what is wrong.

2. Yeah i always thought using the Quicktime is the best tool for videos on iPod but i haven't got the crack for the Pro edition yet... oooops doh.gif And wot?! You own both iPhone and iPod touch?! oh my gawd!

3. Well, it isn't really any album art fetcher application but i google all my album arts, and paste it manually (Right click on the song > Get Info > Album Art). I think i found a temporary solution to it. Earlier i did not include an album art for all the songs in the album. What i do now is, i paste the album art in all the songs in the album & resync it and the album art now shows in the touch's cover flow view. Some of you might have noticed that in iTunes it is not necessary to paste the album art on all the songs belong to the same album. All you gotta do is to have one of the songs pasted with the album art, and the rest of the songs from that same album would acquired the album art, automatically rclxub.gif ** i hope i explained this well otherwise i'll give an example later **
But what weird is before this, if i switch it to album view (tap on the album icon on the bottom dock), the album art (the tiny one on the left) does show. When i tilt it to the cover flow view, it went missing!

4. I turned it off as in i REALLY did turn it off (power down). I did both actually, put it to sleep and wake it again. Power down and power up again. It didn't work.


Anyway i had an iPod Nano first generation which has got some scratches on it's chrome back. I was googling around to see if i could get it removed. Here is what i found, funny:
Removing scratches with banana
Other options including using Brasso (did i spell it correctly?), a metal chrome cleaner. I don't know if this works. Have not tried this personally but probably would wanna give it a shot. If it does work then cool. If it doesn't...all i gotta lose is a banana tongue.gif I have not brought my touch to anywhere outta my house yet as i do not want it to suffer the same fate as my nano. Any pouch available yet for the touch?

Found something fun too:
Mac OS X icon on iPod touch

And a 'glitch' on the iPod touch.

Hey,

I'm using the Golla case which costs me RM49. Its a very usable canvas case with dedicated compartment enough for iPod touch, one small compartment for earphones and a back zipper compartment for sync cable and other stuff. All in a small package. For the iPod touch itself I'm ordering the best screen ever for total protection.

RM49 for a Golla case it's pretty cheap! Mind to post some pix? I would also skin the chrome back just for extra safety smile.gif

Couldn't spot much difference from my previous 1st generation nano. Thinking to get a better pair of earpiece - a Sennheiser or something. Anyway from the reviews i read, the touch's sound quality is not as good as the 5G ipods.

Oh by the way, does anyone here knows what is the included dock (the white one, not the clear one) for? I don't seem to find and usability of it. I have another one that came together with my old nano too and i never once use it =P

Sure, here are the pictures. I bought one with a beige color and they look dirty (though they are new) so try choosing something with a darker color scheme. The Golla is available at All IT 3rd Floor of Lowyat. I saw one Golla open-concept stall in Pavilion too so you might want to try that for wider range of product.

Golla cases do look girly but for the sake of iPod Touch, hehehehe... you know...

Anyway here is the URL link to Golla products:

You must make sure your PC's USB port is powered up to charge via USB
