As Ingo said, all the iPod touches have soldi state flash memory. Only the iPod Cassic has a spinning hard drive.

Post some links that demonstrate other wise

If you goggle it discussions come up. It appears the 32g has a hard drive and the 64g uses a flash drive, stability and improved function seem to be the reason. Hope this helps.

Sorry... Bad intel. The info I looked at was posted incorrectly-- should have done a better checked of the source. (Shouldn't attempt to think before the first cup of coffee) All iPod 5 use flash drives, that is correct and the reason is stability and better function. Off topic here, but, I did pick up some interesting info on replacing the hard drive in a iPod Classic with a 32g flash drive-- surprisingly easy, but that's for another forum.
