Summary: What I Like About My iPod
Review: My Mom Bought Me My iPod In April 2003 At CompUSA. And I Really Like It. After I Unpack The iPod, I Charged It, And I Install The iPod Software. The Software Comes With The MusicMatch Jukebox Program. But My Computer Already Have MusicMatch Jukebox. I Sometimes Use My Remote To Operate My iPod. Someday I Can Bring My iPod To School (...). I Usually Listen To It When I'm Going Out With My Family Or Going To My Friend's House. I Don't Really Store My Friends' Phone Numbers And Addresses In My iPod Because I Use My PDA To Store My Friends' Phone Numbers And Addresses. I Also Don't Store My Appointments And Events In The Calendars Because I Don't Know How To Download It. Also, I Use My PDA To Store It. In The Future, At Least In The Year 2010. My Younger Sister Eileen Could Get Herself One, If She Has Any CDs. Eileen Already Got Herself A Computer And Her Computer Has A FireWire Port.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Almost perfect.
Review: The IPod is great and much better than my old Creative Nomad. However, there are still a few things which could be tweaked. The on-board file and directory structure is goofy enough that you have to have a iPod related utility like Musicmatch or XPlay to upload music and have the songs be recognized ..

Summary: this is good! very good! but pricey!!!!!
Review: This model of the ipod looks amazingly cool! I'd love to own one of these, but there's only one problem. The price! When i planned to buy this product i found that the price was as low as 250 pounds but now it's risen to 300 dollars! And this is just for the 10mb model! I told my brother that i had planned to buy this product and his reply was "they won't catch on, because of the price and the technical parts". And he's right! This product is clearly an amazing product but with a price like this it won't sell as quickly as cd players or dvd players! For this product to start selling at a reasonable rate we have to lower the price to a reasonable price like between 150 pounds and 200 pounds. Then people will become interested! Also, people have only heard of such a product through the net when it is known that 9/10 people hear of such a product through the television! If we were to advertise the product on television then people would know what it is and how it will improve there life style!

Summary: Good player but not the most intuitive
Review: Great - but sometimes had to get going. You should download Ephpod - especially if you are on a Windows machine.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It travels everywhere and takes a licking!
Review: I'll be brief.
This is my 3rd mp3 player (counting Archos jukebox twice because I had so many problems with it). The Ipod (for Windows) operates flawlessly, I have dropped it a few times onto concrete and in the backyard-no problems whatsoever. Download Ephpod software to organize the tracks - A lot easier and makes more sense than Music Match.

The IPOD -
it's beautiful, it's tough, it sounds fantastic. Don't waste your money on the Archos MP3 players, they are shabbily built, are buggy and customer service is non-existent.

Summary: 10GB's just right!
Review: I absolutely love my iPod. I mean LOVE it! I use it everyday approximately 7 - 10 hours a week, and I've had it for months. It sounds great. It's small. It's awsome. Many other good reviews have already been writtien about the iPod's features and supposed bad points. I'd love to refute some complaints I've read, but I'm going to limit my review to whitch amount of MB's is needed for this unit.

I own the 20GB. Let me assure you--it's a great deal of memory. I have mp3's on the thing that have been on there since the day I bought it. I have yet to exaust its capacity. In my mind, the 10GB is probably a better choice in that i have yet to exaust 20. I, therefore, would have to guess 30GB is excessive and unnecessary. 20GB is plenty, folks. The only way I could see 30GB being absolutely necessary is if you want to use none of your PC's hard drive for any mp3's whatsoever. But that just isn't practical. Usually the way it works is you have 20-40GB on your hard drive and once you've compiled and organized a full collection of an artist or a playlist you'd like to have on the iPod, you then load it onto it.

I admit, if I were buying my iPod again, I would go for the 20 GB, or even the 30GB--that's just my nature. But it's completely unnecessary. 20GB is a dream. 10GB is just enough. 5GB would leave you wanting.

Enjoy!

Summary: IPOD - HOPEFULLY NEW IPOD WILL BE MORE RELIABLE
Review: HAD IPOD FOR 10 DAYS-JUST RETURNED-WILL WAIT FOR FRIDAY'S RELEASE OF NEW IPOD. IPOD WAS UNRELIABLE- FROZE BOTH TIMES I USED IT DURING MY RUNS AFTER 20 MIN. BATTERY NEEDED RECHARGE AFTER 1 HOUR. WAS TOLD THIS WAS NOT THE NORM. WILL GIVE IT ANOTHER TRY WITH APPLE'S NEW IPOD VERSION. IT WAS REALLY SUPER FOR THE 40 MIN OR SO I USED IT.

Summary: The Only mp3 Player
Review: After spending [money] on an mp3 player that virtually had no instructions, complicated to use and downright frustrating, I sent it back and did further research. A friend had just purchased an iPod 10 and gave me a demo. It was easy to set up and download, not to mention the user friendly features and clarity of fidelity. After further research I decided to spend [money] for the iPod 10. Yes it is expensive but well worth the investment considering all other mp3 players I looked at. To me, there is only one mp3 player...the Apple iPod!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Almost perfect
Review: I just bought the Ipod and it fully meets my expectations. So why the 4 stars, just small things missing. Like a radio would be nice, but with 2000 songs not really nessecary, but still be nice. Other thing is the lack of manual for using the Ipod. I'm not technically challenged but I didn't know that you could not disconnect the Ipod with out a special procedure. Luckily nothing happened to my Ipod. Otherwise its a great product, allthough I would recommend that you also purchase Xplay, because MusicMatch can be a pain. Ipod worth the price.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: If you jog/run, don't buy it!
Review: Although Apple advertises the iPod as ideal for strenuous athletic activity, apparently that does not include running or jogging - at least for more than 18 minutes. The touted 20 minutes of skip free play is almost exactly that. At 18-20 minutes into a run (just getting started for many runners) the iPod freezes, and can only be unfrozen by plugging it into its recharger. Amazingly, the arrogant tech at Apple recommended stopping running every 18 minutes and plugging the thing into the recharger for a few minutes...really handy for trail runs. To be fair to Apple, the iPod uses a hard drive to store MP3's, and this performance is not unusual; however the inaccurate advertising is unusual, and not very Apple-like. C'mon Steve Jobs, you can do better than this!!
