Great iPod/MP3 player for someone new to mp3's

Advantages: Light weight, easy to use, sturdy, long battery life
Disadvantages: No screen, Not much memory

...new versions of iTunes. Apple are a very good company and their mp3 players show it. They are very sturdy and work great! I would highly recommend this as a first MP3 player and for a child. I dont think that a person of an older age group will like this one because it doesnt have a screen and the memory isnt as good as you would hope. ...

Review of Apple iPod Shuffle

iPod Shuffle 1GB - Best MP3/audio player I've ever owned

Advantages: Very strong and portable. Extremely good value for money.
Disadvantages: Some may prefer a larger capacity. Other than that, no disadvantages at all.

The iPod shuffle is, without ANY shadow of doubt, the best MP3 player I have ever owned. It is incredibly strong for something of it's size and weight. The day I bought mine I accidentally sent it flying across my kitchen, to find it had no damage whatsoever. I recently fell off of my skateboard with the iPod clipped to my belt-loop, landed directly on it, and the little thing still works perfectly, despite having had 89kg fall and slide on it. The ...
...The capacity, while nothing amazing, is perfect for those wishing to listen to a few tunes whilst on the go. It holds around 200 songs, depending on file size, which for most people is just fine. With the miniature size of it, and the clip on the back, the Shuffle is very portable, and can be clipped to pretty much anything, like belt-loops, tracksuit trousers, shirts, jackets, backpacks etc. The clip is very strong, so the iPod won't just fling ...

Review of Apple iPod Shuffle 1GB Second Generation

I've joined the iPod generation

Advantages: Small, light, simple to use.
Disadvantages: No display. Plugs directly into usb port can be awkward

...are compatible with PC's or Apple Mac's. The iPod Shuffle is white, quite thin, very light, and has the very minimum of control on it. You have on the back: a sliding switch which will turn the iPod on playing songs in order, slide it down again and the iPod will play the songs in randon order (shuffle!) and slide it back up to the top to turn it off, and a battery check button. On the front there is just the control wheel, from which you can press ...
...these can be purchased from Apple or other good retailers). These isn't a problem for people that have some USB ports on the front of their computers but anyone with only USB ports on the back will find it awkward to connect the iPod (the Apple Mac's I use at work only have ports at the back and it is a real pain to connect my iPod to it, my PC at home has them at the front and that is ideal). So anyone with USB ports on the rear I would recommend ...

Review of Apple iPod Shuffle M9724LL/A

The funnest iPod ever

Advantages: Battery Life - Sound - Screen luminosity - Memory
Disadvantages: External Speaker Quality

Apple yet again did it with their iPod, i remember getting the first iPod touch that came out and I loved it that much that i had to get the 2nd one. The iPod from my point of view is just amazing, you can so much with it it's unbelieveable, all the games and things you can download from the app store is amazing. The battery is very very good so you can just charge it up for the day and it will last two days + (providing you lock the iPod and put ...
...through the speakers, I though apple could have come up with something better. Wifi is on the iPod so you can surf the internet from your bed or on the move so long as you have a wifi connection. I would just recommend this product to anyone who wants to buy a new mp3. Hope this helps anyone ...

Review of Apple iPod touch 32 GB

Apple Ipod Touch

Advantages: Innovative, Apps are great fun, Touch screen very versatile and adaptable.
Disadvantages: Sound quality without headphones, not that good, however with headphones very good indeed.

This device is the best MP3 player i have ever brought, it acquires the touch screen, which is brilliant, as it is very quick to find and play a song existent on your Ipod. Another factor associated with the Ipod Touch,is the ability to download various applications, there millions of Apps, that an Ipod user can download, for example Tap Tap, which is the most popular game for the Ipod which involves players tapping drums to a designated rhythm, ...
