Thanks for the detailed response. I have a iPod mini and an iPhone but I like having my full music library on both because I listen to music at work and also in case I forget to charge one of them, so that's why I was initially leaning towards the 64g. My Dad bought me the 32g, a nice case, and a car charger (which I'm returning because my car already has a hookup), so I'm set if I decide to stick with the 32g. It is more than double my current capacity, which is 13.3GB.
However you having only 5.7GB free on your touch is what worries me since I'll most likely add more songs and plan on doing alot of traveling next year (and in the years to follow, hopefully). How many GB does your music take up? My songs are all normal length, anywhere from 3-5 minutes and not mixes like yours. Your iPhone having that much space free is good to know, although I do have 3x the amount of songs. I guess I'm concerned about my future needs and the fact that you cannot add space if you want to later on down the road. The 32g does sound like a good option, but then this is my main electronic handheld device.
Was there a restocking fee when you exchanged it? How long of a trial period did you have before you exchanged it? Do you have a laptop/computer as well or is your iPad your "computer?"
Nope, I bought it at the Apple Store, Had it for one week, and I have a 2012 Retina Macbook Pro as well, but I really don't like taking it out in public due to the fear of it being stolen or damaged, plus it's huge lol. I already had a iPad Mini but liked the Retina version and found my self using the iPad more then my iPhone.
