I used to think this was the best thing since sliced bread but now I've the new ipod nano video and it's tons better. However, the original ipod nano was a fantastic creation and shouldn't be knocked. Simple design and simple to use. I-tunes makes it easy to sort your own playlists and assign album artwork. It's unfortunate that the screen is too small to see anything properly. Also, the whole item seemed to scratch fairly easily and all the decent protective covers for it made the ipod huge - not a problem with the new nano. The battery life didn't seem to last a particularly long time and of course there's no replacing the batteries since it's in-built but that's the same with all ipods. Sound quality is very good - came out well through the car radio too, The clickwheel is dead easy to use as is creating an 'on-the-go' playlist whilst you're out and about. Plus it looks good.
