First, I'm going to talk about what's new on the iPod Touch. The first thing is the App Store(Application Store)
Tune your run.
iPod touch now includes built-in Nike + iPod support. Just slip the Nike + iPod Sensor (available separately) into your Nike+ shoe and start your run. The sensor communicates wirelessly with your iPod touch, tracking your time, distance, and calories burned. It even gives you voice feedback on your progress.
Customize your Home screen.
Arrange the icons on your Home screen any way you want. Even move them to another Home screen. Create up to nine Home screens for quick access to the games and applications you download from the App Store and to your Safari Web Clips.
Find yourself.
iPod touch finds your location using known Wi-Fi hotspots. It also finds points of interest by keyword: Search for “coffee” and iPod touch shows you every cafe nearby
Search contacts.
If you have a lot of contacts, a quick search shows you a list of matching names to choose from. Or you can scroll up and down your entire list to find the right contact. Want to send them an email? Just tap an email address and the Mail application opens automatically.
Organized by groups.
If you keep your contacts organized into groups — such as coworkers, friends, family, and so on — iPod touch will, too. And iPod touch can hold more than just names, email addresses, and phone numbers. You can also track birthdays, websites, nicknames, and notes
iPod touch games and applications are nothing short of amazing. And the App Store is where you’ll find them all.
The world’s best developers are taking advantage of groundbreaking technology, including Multi-Touch, the accelerometer, real-time 3D graphics, and 3D positional sound, to create games and applications made especially for iPod touch. So whether you’re a gamer or into something else — chatting, social networking, news, sports, finance — there’s bound to be something just for you.

The next new thing on the iPod Touch is the sleek new design.
iPod touch feels even better in your hand thanks to the stunningly thin, contoured enclosure made of polished stainless steel.
The iPod Touch also added volume controls on the side of the ipod touch, a longer battery life, and even a buit in speaker, no to mention the new feature for joggers.
