iPod touch What should I do with my old iPod Touch?

[OJShingler123]

I recently got the 32gb iPod touch (4g) and I used to have the old 16gb iPod touch (1g)
I was wondering what I should do with my old one because I know it won't be worth lots of money?

-Hand it down to someone in your family
-keep it and use it for a specific task (gym/jogging/car stereo)
-keep it for when you have a guest who wants to check their emails or facebook, instead of giving them your new iPod, hand them your old iPod touch.
-craigslist, you can get around $100 for it. It may not be much, but thats $100 that you didn't have.

Generally every time I upgrade my iPhone or iPod (nano/touch/classic/shuffle) to a newer model, I just hand them down to someone in my family or to a friend (they love me for it).

• Buy an AppleTV and use it as a remote control
• Buy a speaker w/ built-in iPod dock and keep it permanently there
• Keep it permanently assigned to your car

Or maybe the best idea yet -- my 8 year old nephew *insists* there are secret crystals inside my iPod touch that can also be used to power light sabres. So you could always tear it down to find out...

Give it to someone who cannot afford it.
I did that with an IBM Thinkpad.
Felt good.

It also makes a great remote control and DVR programmer/controller if you have Verison FIOS.

you could make it a movie player. buy a universal dock + video out cable from apple, get movies on your ipod, hook up to TV.
and if you carry around the cable to hotels, you don't have to pay $15 to watch a movie once.
rent on itunes, $4, watch on TV.

See if it will blend?
