With 3.0, is it now possible to buy an iPod touch, turn it on, set it up and use it without ever connecting it to a computer running iTunes? I thought you could set up your iTunes Store account directly on the device now. Assuming you don't need to sync anything from a computer (e.g. just using it for email, browsing, and getting apps & podcasts directly over wifi), is it now able to be used as a completely stand-alone device by someone who doesn't otherwise own a computer?
Related question.... if a person has an iPod touch and they are travelling for a year without access to their regular computer, and they purchase music/movies/apps from the iTunes Store, what happens if the device fails and has to be replaced or hard-reset, or if it's stolen? Apps can be re-downloaded, but what about music/movies? Would they be lost, or could your purchase be re-downloaded?
