I have an iPod touch A1288 and I thought it was through reading this that it was a 3rd gen because it is an 8GB, but to my sad realization from many hours of research and right off of apples web site I found that "The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318".

The surprising answer, "sometimes".

Yes, it would appear there are actually 2 ipods with the same model number.

One is a 2nd generation, which is the more common and well known of the two.

The other is an 8GB model 3RD generation. You can distinguish between the two by checking out the Model ID.

The 2nd gen is:iPod2,1

The 3rd gen is: iPod3,1
