Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Almost perfection Comment: This is a cool piece of technology.Its small,slim and has an excellent display.Pictures are excellent.I have not experienced any scratches yet unlike some other reviews.Would of been 5 stars but for the battery life(which is not 14 hours as stated).I get up to 10 hours maximum.Also would of been nice of apple to supply an AC adaptor so I could charge the ipod from the mains rather than having to charge it through my computer. Customer Rating: Summary: Freezing Comment: Overall, a fantastic bit of technology. But freezing has become an issue for me, but I have found ways of overcoming this problem. 1. Either reset (Instructions in booklet which come with the I pod) 2. Wait until it runs out of battery and hope your mp3's are still on there, which always works for me. Other than this, the Ipod nano is great, fits in any pocket, sound and colour is brilliant. Customer Rating: Summary: 8 out of 10. A bit pricey. Comment: The Ipod is a well-designed compressed music file player with easy-to-use resident software. Forget about the photo angle - the images are just too small to be useful. The iPod nano is all about music. It's hard to get away from the fact that it's expensive for what it is and you're chained to Apple's software (iTunes) to get the job done. But it does that job very well indeed. Legal internet intrusion, obvious and not so obvious, is way out of hand these days so I'm glad I've iTunes set up on a computer that is never online. (I buy CDs and copy directly to the hard drive using preferred software.) ITunes is now only available as a 36MBish download, so too bad if you don't connect or don't have broadband. Doubtless Apple wants us all to visit its site on a regular basis and be uniquely identified and enticed to buy. Arguably, copying entire CDs or just our favourite tracks is the best approach for those who are definitely serious about their music rather than those who collect a mass of Chart songs and listen to them as if the whole process is some kind of fashion statement. Arguably! Music on the move doesn't appeal to a lot of people. The headphones aren't great, background sound can be a nuisance, and there are health concerns over sound levels. Thankfully the iPod gives us the option to dock it with something substantial like Monitor Audio's excellent I-deck or smaller portable players such as Koda's Imoves. Or you can simply connect your player to your hi-fi with the appropriate lead. I originally bought a 2GB iPod and quickly filled it. I have quite a collection of homemade compilation CDs that hold all my favourite tracks from the last 35 years and along with a few special complete albums they very neatly filled the 1.8GB capacity with 404 songs (the Yes album "Relayer" included). So I bought a 4GB iPod to take me much further with new rock releases and classical and Irish music too, and I much prefer the choice of 2 iPods. To have all your favourite music residing in a couple of tiny players is a real boon. It's the most efficient way of managing and listening to music. Put them in Exspect EX410 cases - very well made. Customer Rating: Summary: At times dissapointing, but you my find the features good? Comment: The sound is good, the colours are good, and the fact you can hold photos is awesome. But, this was not for me. When I first bought it, I didn't get a case for it. After mere days there were scratches all over it, it is not very durable. When I did buy the case for it, it was fine afterwards. One night I handed it to a friend for about a couple of minutes, (I was watching him), and then he dropped it. I thought no worries `cause it's inside the case, but when I saw it again it had split in the middle. NOT VERY DURABLE. Good Points: It is good to carry around, your hand can hold it perfectly and it will fit into the slimmest of jean pockets. The colour screen is very good; you can see photos in the screen as precise as a digital camera, and also when playing a song the Ipod will automatically show you the cover of the CD the song comes from. But if the song was not provided by Itunes, then you will not see the CD cover, unless you insert it separately. The games are okay, basically the same as a Mini-Ipods, except the fact that they are in colour. The games include Solitaire, Parachute, Brick and something else that I can't remember (been six weeks since I had mine). Also the songs are good, they sound excellent, but can't cope with too much base at higher volumes. Speaking about volumes, the Ipod Nano can go at really high volumes, it would hurt your ear in the earphones, but it is good to show off to all of your friends. Bad Points: Well, the fact is that I think that these don't have good durability, but there are some small other reasons too: The materials used to make the MP3 are very bad, metal around the sides just doesn't feel right, plus the fact that it can be lost very easily thanks to its small size. The Ipod Nano comes in a box also containing: USB cable, Itunes software, Ipod headphones, and charger. Itunes will give the Nano all the songs, photos and slideshows at the click of a button. The nano's battery life can last up to 14 hours, depending on the volume level, memory and if the backlight is switched on or off. The memory (2GB) can hold 500 songs or 12,500 photos (one or the other, not at the same time). Overall I think that it is good for what it does, but not for the looks or texture. Itunes is awesome, and the songs and photos are excellent. I still can't believe that it broke with the case in. For that fact itself minus two stars easy, but then there are a lot of good points and extras when you do have it, plus three stars. Overall: 6/10 Customer Rating: Summary: Wise To Upgrade Comment: I was not sure I got such a great deal with a 1 G iPod, so I returned it and for $50 more got the same thing only with twice the memory (2 G). Because I still feel the ear buds are `tinny' sounding and inconvenient, I bought a nice lightweight pair of snug headphones. Solved that problem. As for the small size problem, I ended up leaving it in my jeans and washing it! Guess what! It still works, which is a major kudos to Apple from a PC person. So, I purchased a protecting case, which makes it a little larger. Now, I also get 500 songs instead of less than 250. You'll still need to buy a magnifying glass to read the serial number, but this idiot found out that the number is on the outside of the box! Lessons can be learned! More Reviews
