My First iOS Device Will Be My Last

So for years, I have had a critical opinion of Apple products. Considering how they only seem to sell through marketing hype, I've always told people to steer clear of the brand. Then I decided to put my money where my mouth is, and plummeted $200 on the newest iPod Touch (and $60 for AppleCare). I figured if the claims of a quality product were true, I would soon find out.

Turns out I didn't. Though before I get into why this device is terrible, let me try to paint a picture of its strengths.
