I was correct when I stated there is no such thing. Please publicly acknowledge this fact so you do not contribute to the misinformation I tried to prevent.

Though retailers universally *call* it "3rd-gen 8GB," Apple does not call it "3rd-gen." Apple specifically says it's 2nd-gen hardware and doesn't have any of the new hardware capabilities of a 3rd-gen device. Even some software capabilities are limited (can't use Bluetooth keyboard, for example...even with 4.x OS).

Ignorant user doesn't even read up on his own gadgets before feeling all warm and fuzzy about how new it is.

You are wrong. It is 2nd-gen with iOS 3.x. It isn't a bad thing... it's still faster than iPhone and iPhone 3G, it's just not iPhone 3GS/iPod touch 3rd Gen class.
