No more cd's to lug around. The search feature could be improved some what. I use mine in my auto with a touch screen player which makes it easy to use on the go.

QuickTake:

Pros: So much music, So little to carry around.
Cons: Search features, & I-Tunes Control.

Overall a solid product with tremendous potential and functionality. I still dislike betiween tied down to itunes. I envision the screen size increasing overtime but this will do for now. It may dminish the sleekness but adding buttons and other user f

Buy an extended warranty on this one! It locks (freezes) constantly and needs to be reset. I've gone through 4 ipods in 6 months. When it works it is great but very discouraging when it locks up on a regular basis. Mine is back to the shop at this time because I could not get it to reset. I've heard my friends say the same thing about locking up so it is not just me.

QuickTake:

Pros: good sound and video
Cons: freezes up

Product Rating: 3.00 star(s) Good Quality Comes With A Cost

Comments:
At about the end of November I purchased the iPod. The over all quality of the music was the best I have ever heard and the video was far beyond what I expected. But, you may wonder why I am only giving it a 3 out of 5 star ratting. About a few days after buying the slick new iPod I noticed a small problem that was turning into a bad problem fast. By not having it in a case the screen was getting completely scratched up from having it in my pocket. These scratches where extremely noticeable when playing videos. So after a lot of searching for a way to fix this I cam across this product call iCleaner this polish coasted me about $20 and it got the scratches almost all the way out. After this I bought a case which coasted near $30. Everything was good for the next few weeks until one day I decided to run the battery all the way down. When I went to plug it into the computer the iPod came up with the do not disconnect screen well I let it charge overnight. Next morning it still had the do not disconnect. Once again I researched this problem and found out it was froze and the way to fix this was to hold down the "Menu" and center button. Well this seemed like nothing to me but the next problem that my ipod had really got me angry. Around the beginning of January 2006 the left earbud began to make this crackling noise when listening to music. At the time I am righting this review January 26, 2005 it has got so bad so I did some research on the problem and found a site with over 100 people in 5 days who have posted the same problem some even saying that the iPod has even blown their expensive headphones from different companies to blow as well. I called Apple support and the guy was like "oh head phones broke yeah umm we will send you new ones". Well we will have to see how long they take to get here and how long it will last.

QuickTake:

Pros: Perfect sound/video quality
Cons: blows earbuds, poor battery life, scratches easy

Product Rating: 5.00 star(s) Does this ipod really live up to the hype?

Comments:
I've had this ipod for three weeks and I love it. The itunes program was easy to set up and use. It was easy to transfer songs to the ipod (when you hook up the USB cable the program opens up and transfers all of the songs on the playlists that you've selected). The video quality is amazing. I was blown away at how clear the picture is. Overall, I am very impressed. The downsides are that the battery life is very short when you're watching a video (maybe two hours instead of the claimed 14). It also scrathces very easily. They send you a little pouch with it but I would recommend getting a case for it. Probably the best part about it is that I got it for free. It took me about a month to get but it actually worked. I was blown away. Check out this website and sign up. It's that easy. They sent me the ipod and I ended up not paying a dime. Check out this site: ipods.freepay.com/?r=26946507 It's really easy and it works! You will love this ipod!

QuickTake:

Pros: Awesome screen, huge capacity, sleek and stylish
Cons: scratches, battery life is short

Product Rating: 5.00 star(s) Great product, but why pay when you can get for free.

Comments:
The new Ipod Video is amazing, it can hold up to 150 hours of video and holds up to 15,000 songs. The Ipod video has a 2.5 inch, 320 x 240 color LCD screen which dominates the ipod. I believe that the ipod video is amazing, but it has a BIG drawback. "THE PRICE" Paying $299.99 is a lot for...truly any portable music/video player. I do love my ipod video but I say to myself why pay $299.99 when you can get it for free? All I did was go to this site:

ipods.freepay.com/?r=26986746

Then I told some friends to check out the site, and I got my free Ipod. I had doubts about this site when I heard it from a friend but when my ipod came to my door, I was really happy. I mean why pay $299.99, when u can get it for free from a legit site?

QuickTake:

Pros: Great Player, screen, sound
Cons: Price,
