Not strictly true; I do like my iPod Touch, but its sound quality via headphones isn't exactly stellar, and the touch screen can be a right royal PITA with its "accuracy".
Screen isn't quite as gorgeous as my ancient Nokia 770.
Definitely go the Apple refurb route though - i've done that before a few times, and they're always as good as new.
