Apple iPod Video 5G

Comments:
We chose to review the 30GB (as opposed to the 80GB version) as it is the direct competitor to the Microsoft Zune (not that the capacity will really make a difference in our review, aside from valu...

Review Verdict: As much as I hate to admit it, I actually like using the iPod Video. As a diehard small market MP3 player user, it's hard for me to admit that. It's also difficult to nit pick a player that has been out for so long, has been redesigned and upgraded multip

Apple iPod (30GB/60GB, video)

Comments:
Get the affordable, sleek, and sexy 5G Apple iPod for its audio virtues. Although video looks great, poor video battery life and a relatively small screen hamper its appeal to video heads

Product Rating: 4 star(s) Apple iPod 5G (Video, 30GB)

Comments:
The 5th generation Apple iPod, or sometimes known as the iPod Video and that's how we'll refer to it throughout the review, just might be the best iPod that we've seen from Apple. They added lots of features and slimmed the device down in size compared to

Product Rating: 4 star(s) U2 iPod Special Edition

Comments:
Apple continues its 'unique' partnership with U2 in the form of this new 30GB video iPod, which replaces the original 20GB U2 iPod introduced in 2004. The band-branded music player is now fully encased in black, front and back, and still sports the distin

Review Verdict: For most people the decision will come down to the price and how much they love U2. If you're a fan and like to collect anything associated with the band, you probably already own the older U2 iPod. If you've considered upgrading to a video-enabled player

Product Rating: 3.5 star(s) Apple Computer iPod 5G with Video (30GB/60GB)

Comments:
We could write four different reviews of Apple Computer's fifth-generation iPod (30GB/$299, 60GB/$399) - one from an audiophile's perspective, one from a photographer's perspective, one from a movie lover's perspective, or one from a mainstream consumer's

Review Verdict: Hey- they were able to play 720 x 320 24FPS MPEG4 video! That is amazing! That should give great output to a TV set. I bet by cutting to say 640 x XXX, you could minimize artifacting. I don't know the max bitrate you can push through, but with 2-pass enco

QuickTake:

Pros: An attractive, thinner-than-ever iPod enclosure with a bright, detailed 2.5" display. Three major audio bugs fixed (and only one minor new one introduced), resulting in best-sounding full-sized iPod yet, plus optional on-screen lyric display. Over fifteen
Cons: Implementation of video functionality is incomplete, lacking hardware support for popular standards, and free software to convert existing videos. Though detailed, screen is smaller than both competitors and consumers' expectations. Discontinuation of top

QuickTake:

Pros: Apple's best iPod yet, with a color screen and user interface, photo display through itself and TV sets, and 17-hour battery life. Great audio quality and overall experience. An affordable, substantial improvement on the U2 iPod released seven months ago
Cons: Photo display initially requires extended sync process, add-ons required to download photos directly from a camera, or display photos on a TV. Still no way for users to easily replace battery. Because of slight added thickness, not necessariy compatible w
