Angelo's IpodTouch

By Castagnino Angelo (amazon.com)

Angelo's IpodTouch

The only negative aspect is that you can scratch the silver-coloured back of the ipod very easily. That said, the product is awesome, incredibly fast and reliable. Particularly recommended if you live on campus, where you have a wi-fi spot available every...
