Hi Simon. Nope we haven’t had a chance to have a go yet and no we haven’t had one before. Her Ipod touch has been having a nervous breakdown for a few months now and she uses it every working day on the train/tube to and from work to listen to music and play silly games etc. The full size is a bit big to use easily while travelling on public transport but the mini is perfect. She knew nothing about it and whooped with delight when it turned up. She is over the moon with it and says she can down load all the TV programs we miss in the evening as we have to go to bed so early. With any luck I might be on a big promise this weekend !
