So... as the tech specs show, it's a slimmer version of the iPhone. Slimmer because it has no phone, no GPS, no mobile internet (only WiFi), no digital compass and a lower resolution camera.
It's my first real experience with an Apple product, and I'm impressed. The retina display is stunning (you can watch DVD quality movies at full resolution and internet browsing is a lot easier) and the keyboard works well, even with my chunky fingertips. Everything is very slick. I'd now consider an iPhone if I moved to a contract phone.
The only downfall in some respects is having to use iTunes, but that's a different issue.
- purely because it isn't an iPhone.

Re: iPod Touch 4
That's a bit weird marking it down because it isn't another product!! I haven't really used an iPod Touch so I can't comment. I guess it would be as good as the iPhone in terms of apps, music and video. As I bet you can guess I love my iPhone. It is one of the best technology buys i have ever made.

Re: iPod Touch 4
I did think it might seem a little harsh, but if someone was on a contract phone they may as well not bother with this and get an iPhone instead as there's a fair bit of function overlap. Without 3G some of the apps are limited in their use slightly too. Maybe the rating reflects some degree of iPhone envy on my part?
For someone with a pay as you go phone it's brilliant, I'm kind of scared to take it out of the house though!
Have had a proper play around with the text editing side of things, and it works well - love the little magnifying glass.
