A beauty - and not a scratch in sight First up, I'm surprised at the comments about the scratches. What are people doing to their iPods? I thought I treated mine rough, but clearly some are throwing it out the window. My iPod is completely scratch-free after just over a month of use, and it's been painless to use.
It's my fourth iPod - I bought the first model the day it was released (5 gigs - how I thought that was a lot!) and then upgraded to the third generation model. Finally I treated myself to this in order to a) carry m...

Best iPod Yet--Absolutely Incredible Despite being a PC person, I purchased an iPod mini a couple of years back and was impressed with how simple and elegant it was. I followed this up with a Nano for my wife and was very happy with the improvements, even if it was not as tough as the mini.
The iPod Video blew me away. For those of you who wonder if you can really watch a show on that so-called little screen, the answer is a definitive yes. It is bright, clear and large enough when holding to cause you to forget you...

I will always stay with an IPOD. Apple is the best! Hello everyone. Well, I purchased my first Ipod about 7 months ago. It was when the 60gb came out. My old one from Dell was about to crash, and I thought I would go with an IPOD. I downloaded Itunes, and it easily transfered all my music on my hard drive to itunes with just one click. All I had to do was install the IPOD software. That wasn't a big deal either.(This is when I was still using my dell laptop. I just recently switched to a macbook. I have now changed sides, and I think I wi...

The Way it Should Be I had previously owned a Philips GOGear HDD6330 30GB mp3 player and had many many problems. Mostly with syncing the songs onto the device and also some with proper playback. The interface was also not as nice nor responsive as the iPod. So I returned the Philips and got the 80GB iPod. It has not let me down once. It sounds great, the battery lasts for days (4-6 hours a day use). itunes is very easy to use and seems to almost know what you need to do before you do. podcasts are neat and fr...

IS this a JOKE or a huge mistake??? Apple just released the next 6th generation iPods at a press conference today dropping the prices, introducing new features and expanding the memory and now Amazon has raised the prices of the old iPods. What is going on???

Four stars for the size, functionality, and ease of use....But c'mon Apple, make a scratch resistant case already!
I have been an IPod fan for a while and was thrilled to see this new model come out in 80GB with video capability, color screen and the whole works. This is a perfect item for those who want to carry around the bulk of their music as well as their online video library. For those like me who have hours of tv shows and movies I like to carry around, the 80GB version is definitely the better way to go than the 30GB. Battery life is excellent and the color screen is crisp and clear, although I...

Great Source of Entertainment Overall, I think this is a great product, but as with any electronic device there will be some quirks.
Pros:
Large, Bright Screen
Very Attractive
Holds A LOT of Songs and Movies
Portable
Fast Transfer-Some People have said the transfer was slow, but it is faster than any other mp3 player I have had
Cons:
You pretty much have to use iTunes
Scratches easily
Freezes Up Sometimes (which you can fix by flipping the hold switch ...

Bittersweet Treat Well I bought this for myself after waiting pretty much since day one of the ipod coming out. I'm a music lover (a vast understatement) and felt this would be much more than a nice toy for someone like myself. I was right. As soon as I got it out of the box, I was enthralled. There are some things about the ipod that I felt should have been included and thusfar are not...such as being able to link two ipods/mp3 players together to share music, no relevant manual (there are some excellent indepen...

RIP OFF Just so you don't go and drop $599 on an outdated 80g I-POD you should know that you used to be able to get 80g I-PODs from apple for $379 and now you can get a new generation I-POD 80 for $279 and a 160g for $379.
Not sure why they think they can get away with that rediculous price but buyers should be informed.

Simply the best MP3 player around!!! I've owned the 60GB Video iPod for close to a year now and with 11,000 tracks, 10 (Music) videos, and about 30 photos on it, I had 2.13GB free and was wondering what to do for more space.
Then along came the 80GB video iPod. More than enough room for my growing music collection, well at least for another year or so. Meant for those with large music collections.
Exactly the same size as the 60GB model, this too comes in black (which I got) and white, and it is cheaper th...
