As soon as Amazon runs out of stock of the OS 2.xx iPod Touch, they should start stocking those with 3.0. Might be a while. I got mine long after OS 2.2.1 was released, and it came with OS 1.1 in it! By long, I mean many months.

all iPod touch 2G comes with software 2+...so you couldn't have gotten 1.1...also when 3.0 comes pre-installed i think it will cost more too..

Thank you for the update. Major bummer - Apple seems to be screwing Amazon and the other retailers by holding out inventory of the new iMacs from them. I don't want to wait another month + either, so I'll probably get one from the Apple store too, and suffer the $150 tax hit. Booooo to Apple on this one.

They haven't updated it in almost 2 years so if they don't change it at all we can assume that it may be discontinued, because the iPod Touch is expected to get a 128gb model. Personally I would rather pay $250 for 160gb rather than $400 for 128gb.

Hi, I do not think this is the updated version of the 5G. I am also looking to see If this was, however I am sure that they have not released the updated version to amazon.com yet, I do not see the 80 Gig on here either which leads me to believe that we may have to wait for amazon to release it on their site. This is disappointing to me because I have a gift certificate that I wanted to use it towards the new Ipod, but I am certian that perhaps in the next week or so they should have it released. Good luck!

Thanks for the update. There was no way I was going to buy this from Amazon when they were selling it before Christmas at 249.00. I kept tracking it to see if the price went down and now I don't have to. I bought one as well from Leapfrog. Thank you again!

The one I got came with ios 3.1.3, and that was the last supported ios on the original iPhone. You can hack it to different ios, but 3.1.3 is the last official version.

Was not new. When it went out two months after I bought it, I took it to an Apple store and they me it had been previously sold from an Apple store in November 2012, so was outside their one year warranty. Neither Amazon or the seller would stand behind the product. Spend the extra $100.00 and buy from an Apple store.

I have never owned an Ipod. I am looking for the best version that is specifically for music. I do not want a lot of bells and whistles, I want good sound and to know up front that it is fairly simple to load or download music. Does anyone have a preference for what version I should go for? No:Photos/games/other stuff.. just music.thanks.

No, there will be no more updates to this Ipod. I saw it on wikipedia. This will be the last generation for this Ipod. Currently they are still going to continue to produce it but I don't know how much longer that will be.

An old version can be a model made 3 or 4 years ago. My suggestion is buy newest version on apple products

I purchased the IPod Touch 8Gb 2nd gen, thru eBay, from them on Oct 3. It arrived on Oct. 9. I live in the western US. It was brand new and sealed, just like it comes from the Apple Store. Got a smoking deal. Very pleased.

This I think is 3 years old but it was a great product and you can update it to the newest IOS. Great product

My experience in the past is Amazon aims for you to get the device the day its available to the public. My preorders in the past have arrived on the listed "available on" date. I'd try contacting Amazon directly though- it seems to mildly vary from product-to-product as to when preorders are actually received by the buyer.

The iPod Touch 3rd Generation 8GB model actually uses the 2nd Generation iPod Touch front glass, digitizer, and LCD. So basically, no. Find a 2nd Generation LCD replacement instead.

Apple and Amazon are shipping on wednesday. They do the "First come, first served". I ordered mine yesterday (Sep 5) and my delivery estimate is from 20th to the 27th. With the 2-day shipping the shipping estimate is from the 16th to the 23rd. So they are saying they are shipping it 11-18 days from the pre-order day. Im almost 100% sure that amazon will ship it WAY before that. All the products i've ordered from amazon have come "early". So amazon already has the iPods they are just waiting for wednesday to ship them and you will receive them according to your shipping speed. Apple and Amazon are shipping on wednesday.

Christy, I got my Touch yesterday at my nearby local Apple store. First I went to Costco, then Circuit City, and then Best Buy. None of them had any 2nd gen Touch's. I ended up buying one at Apple, and the entire shopping trip, including chatting with a friend I ran into at the mall on the way to and from the Apple store, consumed just one hour. Had I gone directly from my home to the store, the whole thing could have been accomplished in about 20 minutes. Amazon's dirty tactics caused me a 8 day delay. And yes, I agree, don't order a Touch from Amazon if you want to get it anytime soon.
