Answer

Though they have the same storage capacity, these two products are vastly different. With the iPod touch, you get features like a touchscreen display, Wi-Fi connectivity and a Web browser for use at Wi-Fi hotspots.

The strengths of the Zen are its affordability, the flexibility you get with video and music formats (with the iPod touch, you need to use iTunes and will be restricted to a few file formats), and the fact that the memory is expandable with an SD card.

Keep those points in mind and it should be easy to make up your own mind between these two. For further comparisons, click here.
