Looking for portable WiFi device
Posted: 2010-06-29 03:30pm
I'm in the market for a portable WiFi device/media player, and it seems like the iPod Touch is really the only choice that is even remotely economical. It doesn't seem like there are many portable devices that *aren't* smartphones that have WiFi capability. I currently have a pretty cheap phone that has a small monthly bill, and I'm not interested in paying a much higher phone bill each month for a smartphone.
The second gen 8 GB Touch with OS3=199.00.
32 GB Third Gen Touch at Frys=$267.00 ish last I checked.
Are there any other devices in this range (i.e. under $300) that are comparable? I'm looking for something to keep me occupied on public transportation, but I'd really, really like to have that 802.11 capability as well, given how ubiquitous wireless networks are in my neck of the woods.
