Apple iPod nano 4 GB Silver (3rd Generation)

An anodized aluminum top and polished stainless steel back. Five eye-catching colors. A larger, brighter display with the most pixels per inch of any Apple display, ever. iPod nano stirs up visual effects from the outside in.

And it'll wow you for hours. Play up to 5 hours of video or up to 24 hours of audio on a single charge. All that staying power and a wafer-thin, 6.5-mm profile makes iPod nano one small big attraction.

Cover Flow

If a picture says a thousand words, think of what all the album art in your collection might say. With Cover Flow on iPod nano, you can flip through your music to find the album you want to hear. Use the Click Wheel to browse music by album cover, then select an album to flip it over and see the track list.

Music

Use the Click Wheel to adjust volume, navigate songs, browse in Cover Flow, or explore the Music menu by playlist, artist, album, song, genre, composer, and more. Want to mix things up? Click Shuffle Songs. iPod nano makes your music look as good as it sounds, thanks to its bright color display.

Movies

Buy movies from the iTunes Store and you can sync them to your iPod nano to watch anywhere, anytime. Up to 5 hours of video playback means you can watch two movies back to back. And for your viewing pleasure, the 320-by-240-pixel display--with a whopping 204 pixels per inch--is 65 percent brighter than before.

TV Shows

There's always something good on iPod nano. Browse thousands of episodes of your favorite TV shows on the iTunes Store, buy them for just $1.99 each, then sync them to your iPod nano. Watch last night's episodes this morning, or buy a whole TV series and play a pocket-size marathon.

Podcasts

The iTunes Store features thousands of free video and audio podcasts, including indie favorites and offerings from such big names as ABC News, Comedy Central, ESPN, PBS, NPR, and many more. Browse and subscribe to podcasts, then sync them to your iPod nano. You can even play video podcasts on TV using an optional Apple component or composite AV cable.

Audiobooks

The digital shelves of the iTunes Store are stocked with thousands of audiobooks--including exclusives like the entire Harry Potter series--so you can catch up on your reading wherever iPod nano takes you. iPod nano even recognizes where you left off reading and bookmarks your place.

Games

Put hours of fun at your fingertips. iPod nano comes with three games--Vortex, iQuiz, and Klondike--and you can download more from the iTunes Store for $4.99 each. All iPod games are designed specifically for the iPod interface. And all of them look great on the 2-inch color display.

Photos

iPod nano holds up to 7,000 photos you can sync from your Mac or PC via iTunes. Use the Click Wheel to scroll through photo thumbnails. To see a photo full screen, click the center button. You can even view your photo slideshows--complete with music and transitions--on a TV using an optional Apple component or composite AV cable.

Extras

Calendars, contacts, and a screen lock appear in the Extras menu, along with a few more handy items. Take the world clock, for example. Spin the Click Wheel to choose different clocks for cities all over the world. For workouts, use the built-in stopwatch to log your best times.

Editorial Reviews
With 80GB or 160GB of storage, iPod classic gives your music and video room to move. It also has plenty of energy (up to 40 hours of audio playback), good looks (a sleek, all-metal design), and a great personality (a brand-new interface with Cover Flow). In other words, iPod classic makes an ideal companion.

I think iPod likes to suck your money away, because there is no FM tuner radio, and it costs almost another $50 to have that. What's a stupid gadget!!! I'd like to spend my bucks for zune 80gb (2 generation) which I assume it's more tolerate with people's money.

I've had my ipod for six months now and at first I loved it right up until the problems began. After buying 2 games, my ipod froze up while playing one of the games and indicated that I needed to email customer service in order to restore my ipod. Luckily, I plugged it into my computer to charge the battery, and after about 15 minutes, the ipod reset itself and I did not loose any music at all.

The second problem I have with this ipod and I own a nano as well. If your computer crushes, it is difficult finding the correct software to purchase in order to get your songs back from your ipod onto your new computer (Itunes Library). Once you purchase this software all of your songs still are not transferred back onto your computer.

The third problem is Apple recently came up with a software update that automatically downloaded Safari(Apple's search engine) onto my computer and it ended up deleted all of my yahoo icons and search engines. The Safari software nearly crashed my computer so just be caution about your apple ipod software updates and read the very long disclaimer before downloading or updating anything or you could destroy the settings on your computer.

Apple iPod touch 8 GB (1st Generation)

(not the iPhone) With the Apple iPod touch, Apple has married the iPhone's revolutionary multi-touch interface to their popular digital media player. So instead of a Click Wheel, you just use your fingers to flick through your music, photos, and video. Two fingers can be used in a pinching or spreading motion as well, which zooms in and out of photos and web pages. That's right, the iPod touch is the first iPod to offer web access. It does this via built-in Wi-Fi support. There's even a special iTunes Wi-Fi Store, so you can browse and purchase new music and video while you're on the road. The latest iPod touch now offers a suite of new applications, including email, maps, and handy widgets for weather, notes, and stocks. The new iPod touch also features a customizable home screen that lets you rearrange buttons and create your own Web Clips.

THe iPod Touch is the best iPod I've ever owned. Apple really has created a phenomenal device in the Touch. Now with the firmware 2.0 available, and being able to tap into the App Store, it makes life even more exciting.. Even with this touch now being outdated, with the firmware updates Apple continues to put out, it makes it seem like a nice device every time.

The one complaint I'd have it typical of most iPods. The back can be scratched easily. I picked up an Invisible Shield to protect it, which helped a lot. Still looks brand new, and that's the way I'd like it.

In the end, however, I realized, as fantastic as the device was, why did I want to carry around a cell phone AND an iPod? In the end, I sold my touch, and picked up an iPhone. It's brought my life to a whole new level to have everything all in one device. Among the best purchases I've ever made.
