Summary
One of this year's most popular presents was without a doubt Apple's sexy ipod Nano. It single-handedly redefined the mp3 player market at a time when all signs indicated a decline in demand. Defying the odds, the Nano sold out in many places and clearly...
Strength
Size, design, user interface, battery life, storage capacity, iTunes, quick music upload / synchronization
Weakness
battery not replaceable, pricing, display scratches easily, music cannot be downloaded from iPod
Bottom Line
Is it sexy, hip, cool, sturdy, fragile or powerful? All of the above!
For $250 you can buy a credit card sized MP3 (MP4) player that can hold close to 100 CDs and weighs only 1.5 ounces. THE SPECS - 14 hours average battery life - Charges and syncs using USB 2 - Both Mac and Windows compatible - Calendar,...
Strength
It is sleek, 4GB of space is alot for workout playlists, light and skip proof
Weakness
Expensive for just a run buddy. Not useful without accessories at home
Bottom Line
This is a great lightweight MP3 player. It is top end, but it shows. This is not for your entire CD collection - more portable, active lifestyles.
Apple IPod Nano White–Easy-light-compact – as the song says, who could ask for anything more!

Summary
Background I was lucky enough to receive my iPod Nano as a gift from my husband for Christmas. Well, technically, we went to the store and picked one out together before Christmas and then it magically appeared all wrapped up under the...
Strength
good amount of space, lightweight, easy to use, good battery life
Weakness
expensive, non-replaceable battery
Bottom Line
It is lightweight, portable and easy to use! I love it and will definitely continue to use it.
UPDATE 12-17-2005 With much sadness, I must report that my wittle, wittle, nano is now in someone else's hands. This is due to the FAULTY design of the lanyard accessory...
Strength
easy to use, slim size, weighs nothing, just plain cool
Weakness
earbuds hurt, no power adapter & costly accessories, scratches?, can't replace battery
Bottom Line
1st generation of Nanos w/reports of screen durability issues. I am not a sound snob so it is good enough for me. Easy to use and carry around AND LOSE!
Call me a Luddite if you will (okay, okay, stop now) but I never really got the Sony Walkman thing. I really love music of every variety (except, of course, country and western), and thoroughly enjoy listening to a very good audio system, so listening...
Strength
Tiny, light, gorgeous, great sound. iPod therefore I am.
Weakness
Capacity, poor photo functionality, headphone socket placement, no firewire or remote.
Bottom Line
Gorgeous, superb device, but not yet perfect, Still, it's the iPod killer that none of Apples competitors have managed to build. If you can afford it, buy one.
No moving parts, tiny, big memory: great player for deployment!

Summary
The iPod nano is the missing link between the Shuffle and the bigger iPod, and may be the only player you need to take downrange with you. A while back, I wrote a review on how useful the t

iPod Shuffle You...
Strength
No moving parts, easy to use, long battery life, lots of room
Weakness
Prone to scratch; shiny chrome backing not ideal for tactical environment
Bottom Line
The perfect bridge between the tiny Shuffle and the larger, hard-drive based iPod. Room for all your favorite songs, with a display so you can choose among them!
Well, I had always thought about getting "up to date" with technology by getting an iPod, but I really didn't all the memory the 20 GB color iPod could give you. Then I turned to the mini 6 GB, but, for 50 bucks more, you got all that storage and the...
Strength
SIZE! color screen, same click wheel interface, everything else...
Weakness
Scratches way too easily, accessories aren't available until October 1st 2005.
Bottom Line
Recommended. Big sound, small ( and I mean small) package. Although I put 'Music Lovers'... athletes will love this player. It's easy enough for tech newbies, too.
With the wide gamut of portable listening devices available to consumers today, it can be difficult to choose the product that's right for you. Nearly every option imaginable is available at the right price - music is no longer the selling point of an...
Strength
Small, stylish, color screen, durable internals, interface, software
Weakness
pricey, screen too small, scratches easily
Bottom Line
iPod is always a good choice. The 30 GB is better value, but if small floats your boat, this is the one for you.
I'm extremely happy with my 4GB iPod nano! I couldn't believe how small it was! When I first got the nao I was pretty much expecting a slightly smaller iPod mini with a color screen but the nano is far from it. It's a thin as a magazine and smaller...
Strength
Super small, great color screen, great sound, inexpensive
Weakness
The back is a finger print magnet!
Bottom Line
Apple's iPod nano is a super small MP3 player with all the features you could ever want!
It does not take long for this tiny guy to become your best friend. It is tiny, weighs nothing - it can actually dangle from the provided headset jack without crashing to the floor. This is all solid state, so should there ever be a fall, the...
Strength
Fully-functioned, take everywhere iPod
Weakness
None
Bottom Line
Hard to believe, so much for so tiny. I didn't know I missed having this Pod until I owned one. Would make a fantastic gift.
