Best iPod Touch Price (64gb)

    I am looking to buy an ipod touch because my 30gb creative zen vision m is beginning to feel clunky and heavy and like a brick in my pocket.

    I know I probably won't ever even half fill 64gb but I'd like to go large because I would like to feel that I am upgrading more than the players dimensions and the 64gb would give me the freedom to put on movies, complete discographies, etc. onto the ipod without being stuck for space.

    I am looking for the best price for this. The vast majority of stores, including apple's Irish online store seem to charge €369.99 for it but does anyone know somewhere where it can be found cheaper (preferably from a brick-and-mortar store where goods can be easily returned if a fault occurs but wouldn't mind a reputable online dealer).

    Thanks in advance,
    J.

    Think including shipping and everything it works out to be €320 which is still good but as I said I would rather buy locally and the only seller I could find has only 20 reviews, not a powerseller or anything...

    Powercity have em at 351 here

    Another alternative is to buy them off the apple online student store. You can save a bit of bob.

    Are they holding the VAT on their online shop?

    I had huge problems with a Zen Creative. Hours of phone calls to snotty customer services, second hand device replaced for new, which broke. I swore never to buy another one. Worst consumer experience of my life. Put me off buying online for a long time.

    I never had any trouble with mine, I loved it, still do. Only thing I don't like about it are its dimensions! It's a brick!
