John Gruber's Post-I/O Thoughts

    Although people who buy iTouches love all the apps and the ability to browse the web whenever they have WiFi, in the end, they're buying an mp3 player. They're buying it so that they can listen to music.

I don't think you are right.

The touch music player interface is good, but not as good as my old 40GB iPod Video. Man, it has been almost two years now and I still miss the clickwheel.

I got my iPod touch because of the large screen, the wi-fi and the apps. I don't even hear as much music as I've used to because I really hate unblocking the screen to skip songs and change volume.

Clickwheel, I miss you.

The headphones on my iPod touch give me the ability to skip forward/backward and change volume.

Double-tab the home button to bring up music controls without unlocking your touch.
