I have an apple ipod touch 16gb 1st generation. Apple is going to replace my ipod. will they give me the apple ipod touch 16gb 2ND generation b/c they don’t make the 1st anymore???? Thanks.

I am just wondering if (not price-wise) the Apple 2nd-gen iPod touch 16Gb model is better or worse than the new 3rd gen iPod touch 8gb. Please help!
