Just a Touch of Love
This is an awesome gift for music lovers that are up to speed with technology. You can have access to music catalogs, download your favoriate TV Shows (wow how far we have come) and take nice pictures all with a spin of your fingers. Convinent, stylish and functional. If you don't have a good computer, I don't recommend this device. You may find yourself frustrated due to lack of memory or durating of music downloading time. Also, this device could be more affordable but it's worth every penny. Good product. Had it for 3 months; Use it daily and often. ===THE GOOD=== - Sounds great. - Screen is sharp and clear. - Will play any MP3's you already have in your music colletion (but requires iTunes software) - Easy, intuitive user interface. - Works well for frequent, everyday use. - Has games, a calendar, and contacts and note-storing capability ===THE BAD=== - I have to convert MPEG, DiVix and AVI movies using intermediary software because they do not play in their original format. - Requires iTunes software (included) to interface with the iPod. - Music purchased through iTunes is in WMA format which only plays on iPods, unlike MP3 which plays on most software. - Only comes with a USB charger. Recommend buying a charger for the car lighter and/or 120V wall outlet if you travel and don't have consistent USB access. - Screen scratches easily. Recommend buying a case w/ a protective screen cover. - Battery discharges quickly when watching movies. (When watching a movie w/o interruption, battery will last about 2-4 hours.) ===ALSO...=== - Battery discharges quickly; but charges quickly too. - The 60GB hard drive is actually about 54GB. - iTunes has a slight learning curve and takes some getting used to. Apple 60 GB iPod video 5th Generation Black I bought this as a birthday gift for my grandson. He loves it though to get full utilization he needs a computer with more capacity which he will get for Christmas. iPod Review We received the iPod fairly quickly and haven't had any problems with it yet. Also purchased the Apple protection plan, but haven't had to use it yet. My First Ipod Okey, I've had my 60g video Ipod for a few months now. My entire CD collection is now on this thing along with most of my digital photos. With all that I still have used only about 10 gig or so of space on my Ipod. I now take it on my walk to work and use it all the time. The short of it is I love this thing. | |
