I have a 1st Generation iPod Touch with software 2.2.1. The fact that it has no speakers, therefore hindering it from using the voice notes & voice command features, made me wonder if it's worth upgrading to 3.0 software. That's why you guys are (hopefully) here. Suggestions?

Upgrade. No reason why not. Your device will run better. And the only device with Voice Command is the 3G S.

I have a 1st Gen and 3.0... it's really not worth the $9.95. There are very few new features. All I'm going to say is, Google...

You can still get PUSH over wifi, in-game purchases, run apps that use the new SDK, etc. Worth it for sure. To me anyway. I have my 1G touch and 3G iPhone running it.

I'd recommend the upgrade; before I got my 2nd Gen I upgrade my 1st Gen as soon as I was able. It's nice to have the new software features, even if the hardware doesn't have the "latest and greatest".

I definitely think it is worth the upgrade and I'll be doing it to my first generation touch. Just for the landscape mode and copy and paste I feel it's worth it.

agreed. definitely not worth $10. now for the 2g i'd say it's worth $10 but definitely not for the 1g. Google is your friend.
