I have a 1st gen touch which was working flawlessly until I downloaded a couple of games from the AppStore (Fieldrunner and Nanosaur 2). After playing Fieldrunner and exiting the program, I noticed that my screen appears to have "double vision" with a very slight ghosting of everyhing displayed on the screen (the slight ghost image is about one millimeter directly under the primary image and so it makes everything on the screen appear to have a shadow). I've rebooted several times by pressing the sleep and home buttons down simultaneously until the touch shuts down but everyhing (including the Apple logo on restart) still has this shadow image. The shadow is more evident with a white image ok a black background (as with the Apple logo start up icon) and with black text on a white background, but it is present on everything that is displayed on the screen (it looks like there is a secondary image just below (about one millimeter as previously mentioned) the primary screen image. I will probably have to reset or restore from iTunes and see if this corrects things but I wonder if anyone else has experienced this.

Care to show us a screenshot? (Press the home and sleep/wake button simultaneously)

Well that sure raises an interesting question. How do you get pics off of the touch and into yr computer?
And to clarify the question: how do you transfer pictures saved in the touch (not transferred to the touch) to your computer?

Thanks for the answer from Dyvim, which I can see in my email but hasn't shown up here yet.
(Email the pic to myself)

I deleted the post because I was thinking iPhone, which you can connect as a camera, but then I realized you had a Touch, which isn't a camera. Of course, as you pointed out, emailing the photo to yourself still works.
