Apple announced a revised 32GB model of their increasingly popular iPod Touch last night. A few of the guys in work are lucky enough to have the 8GB and 16GB models and I have recently fallen in love with them (the iPods, not the guys).

I didn’t want to dive into purchasing a Touch when they were first released because of the small hard drive size but the 32GB model will more than suffice for my music collection. I currently have a 30GB video iPod and I’m yet to fill it up.

I’m giving serious consideration to purchasing the 32GB Touch.

Mmmm, do I need it? Mail, Safari, Wireless Connection, Maps, Youtube, extra 2GBs of space on top of my current iPod, Coverflow, iTunes, Touch Screen Interface, Notes….. all nice things.

My flatemate is going to New York in a forthsnight time. I checked the price difference between purchasing the 32GB Touch in Ireland and America and it boiled down to a €140 saving if I asked him to pick me one up on the sly.

32GB Touch from the States = €320 ($499)
32GB Touch from Ireland = €459
