The iPod Touch didn’t make sense to “me” because it was basically the iPhone without the cellular portion.

In 2007-2008, when there was only one model of iPhone and it cost you a leg, it made sense for teens and young people with no income (like me).

I agree that nowadays, it makes a lot less sense.

For sure. I knew families who bought the iPod Touch for their teens and it worked well for them. I considered it for a few seconds and then concluded that just getting them the iPhone was the best course of action at the time for me and them.
