Is this for the older version?

Can this be jailbroken? Thanks in advance!

do refurbs have brand new batteries?

i believe this is the first generation, so it can be jailbroken

#3 If they're like most refurbed electrical items, no. That's the trade-off.

I got the 8gb one free from the Key bank promotion a few months ago. These are really slick devices, but not worth $200. Either get the iPhone, or a cheap MP3 player. This is the middle ground which is expensive, but doesn't have anywhere internet.

Still, for what it does - it's very cool. Just not $200 cool.

When you purchase a refurb from the Apple store the batt would be new. Can't see how Buy.com would pick them up from any other source, but who knows?

Suckers.

Has anyone found a refurbed iPhone?

Do not trust Buy.com refurbished. When the Apple store sells a refurbished product it is indistinguishable from new. But, through Buy.com, I've had scratched screens and so forth.

I think the Archos system is actually much nicer than the ipod touch, although a little more bulky it can do quite a bit more. The new Archos IMT's look really nice.

Why get refurb... Just wait fro Black Friday...

just apply the new jailbreak hack and use it as an iphone and save sum bux.

teh GF got one from work. It's neat but definitely over priced.

would get this if i don't have the archos already

I agree with #6, not really worth the hype. Without a cellular data network the internet is very spotty on these even in dense areas.

Buy.com referbs suck, I know from a hideous first hand experience. Just got my money back from my credit card though.

What is the latest generation of IPod? What is the difference from previous one?

I love my Touch. Thanks B
