Well the iPod Touch screen is just NOT right! The blacks are just so messed up. I don't care what you call it (Negative, Washed Out, Greenish, WHAT EVER...)
They are not right. It is very hard to watch dark movies, look at dark pictures or do any thing else that has blacks...

Edit: I am sure many of you have read this article, Just using it to show that 3 out of 3 iPods tested by Gizmodo had this problem. Also other users who have not read this might find it interesting.
I am giving Apple until next weekend to make this right or the iPod is going back. (Hoping for a software update fix, a recall, or a new batch of units that work properly.)
On a side note, There are some users out there saying their iPods work fine and don't have this problem. I am reluctant to believe this. Maybe they have not run into a dark movie yet.
I will use this example: You could sell 10 broken cars to 10 people, All the cars have V-8's but are only running on 7 cylinders. The car will still run, but not properly. This problem would never even be noticed by some people. Only 5 out of the 10 customers may complain... This does not mean only 5 cars are broken. There are 10 broken cars.
May not be the best example, Just trying to get my point across.

Gizmodo said:Our biggest complaint is that the touch's screen is not as good as the iPhone's screen. As Adrian has already mentioned, when you look directly at the screen while playing video, the deep blacks look strange and opalescent, almost like a film negative. We have tried this on three iPods and they all returned the same result. The only way to solve this problem, in my experience, is to tilt the touch away from you slightly, so that the top left corner is angled down. Not a fun way to watch video. The iPhone does not have this problem in any noticeable way.
