No the diff is that 1st gen touchs work 2nd gen do not charge iphones don't charge. Atleast as far as I knew although maybe they fixed that problem on ' 08 plus?

From that, it sounds like the difference is whether you have the iPod/USB option from the factory (works) or the iPod integration kit in the glove box (doesn't work).
My 2nd generation iPod Touch works fine with my factory option. Can't speak for the iPhone but I'd assume that if one works the other will too.
