Is there any noticeable difference in gaming performance between the 1g and 2g touch? If so, does it make games like Brothers in arms and Guitar Rock tour perform poorly? I know that the processor in the 2g is at least 50-70MHz faster if not more. I saw the 1g 16gb touches on the apple store for $219 (refurbished) and am trying to decide whether it's worth it to spend the extra money for the 2g which is $299. The external speaker and volume controls don't mean anything to me, but graphics performance does.

1g freezes a hell of a lot more

Lisa--

The second generation touches have volume buttons on the side and a dedicated speaker built in. Volume control for the 1st gen touches are on screen only.
