Which Ipod is most suitable?

Im afraid to say it but at the age of 24 i have never owned an Ipod!!

They have never interested me that much and so ive never kept track of their specs etc..

Can one of you experts recommend a model for me?

*I dont need a MASSIVE memory as i dont have loads and loads of music
*I want to be able to dock it and play it outloud around the house.
*I probably wouldnt watch films/play games (if any even do that. lol)
*I need a new phone but im not sure on the Iphone as its touch screen. DP has a touch screen phone and i cant text - texting is a big must have for me!

REP given for your time - Thanks

    iphone 8gb end off look no furthur



    8gb is a poor capacity, what happens when you put some apps and music on there?

    pointless imo, 16gb and above if you were going to get an iphone

    [FONT="Century Gothic"][SIZE="2"][COLOR="DarkGreen"]ahh ok.

    you don't tend to get that many bargains with apple stuff. Its usually at RRP or just slightly under, and if your lucky they will throw in a itunes voucher.

    Its very rare for current models to come down in price.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

    sounds like a smallish nano or even a shuffle and a phone
    4gb can get about 100albums depending on quality so just depends on oyur exact needs

    i would go for the nano 16GB its got a radio and a video camera, goes in your pocket great and looks well cool, with a good capacity, then just get yourself a normal phone, it will work out cheaper than an iphone

    i got the silver one 2 days ago and im loving it:-D

    [FONT="Century Gothic"][SIZE="2"][COLOR="DarkGreen"]BTW, the iphone touch screen is like no other - it actually works.

    I felt exactly the same for a long time - I text a lot, and purposely steered clear of touch screen phones. Then I gave in and got one, and its really good.

    Whether you need an iphone... thats your call, I'm just talking about the texting/touch screen aspect.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

    Thanks for that

    I could probably get an Iphone from O2 (havent had a phone in about 3 years), so it would be killing 2 birds with 1 stone (or as the saying goes) lol

    That is why it is an option

    [FONT="Century Gothic"][SIZE="2"][COLOR="DarkGreen"]All the stuff you get with them will be cheap tat the store wants rid of - go for the itunes voucher in almost all cases [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

    Get a Nokia 5530! They are £99 from CPW! The sound quality is better, capacity is unlimited (Mirco SD cards) and you'll have a new phone!

    You mentioned you want to play it around the house, this phone is built has stereo hi-fi speakers!
