Duration of ownership: 6 Weeks

Strengths: This is the most inovative product to come out in the recent tech boom.

Weaknesses:Can only load various media with itunes.

Overall Evaluation: I am very impressed with the alien like technology that apple seems to continue to grace us with.This is not only extremely easy to use it has allowed me to leave my vulnerable cd collection at home. I would like to see a future version with a full sized touch screen like the iphone that is also blue tooth compatible.

Duration of ownership: 1 Months

Strengths: Great amount of storage. The screen works very well and is nice and bright. I like the ease of navigation through all of the music. Great reliablility and sound quality.

Weaknesses:As I have heard all iPods scratch rather easily. The scratches are pretty small so if you take care of it I don't think that they detract from the nice looks of the iPod.

Overall Evaluation: I really enjoy using my iPod, I can just listen to it for hours on end. I listened to it for pretty much twelve hours non-stop and I still didn't even get half way through all of the songs I have on there. I bought an Alpine car stereo that connects to my iPod and it works great. I don't drive anywhere without my iPod. iTunes can take a little while to get used to, but it's some of the best software out there. I really like the Black look, it's very sleek. Overall, I am extremely happy with my purchase.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: what this can hold is amazing, yeah in 5 years it maybe a dinosuar, I bought it for my daughter on long trips, its great!! better than a dvd player in the car or van.

Weaknesses:i have never bought something and then have to download off the internet, Im aguy too. I never read instruction manuals. But this time I did.if you are a newbie to the ipod store, it takes time.

Overall Evaluation: I just want to make it understood, I dont write reviews on things.. But this has really impressed me.. plug it into your computer right away, charge it up. and your off and running... Very KOOL!! Shipping was quick too and easy.

Duration of ownership: 2 Months

Strengths: Lots of accessories available, looks cool, reliable.

Weaknesses:Apple music incompatability.

Overall Evaluation: In order to be compatable with many other peoples ipod music playing devices, I have reluctantly joined the club. I was reluctant because I prefer the freedom of being able to download off any sight and not be limited to apple -- that is were podmax software comes in handy.

Review:

First Look: Apple's New and Improved 80GB iPod

Apple's iconic audio player gets even better with the addition of a brighter screen and more storage.

Refinement: That's what you get out of Apple's latest iPod. For this latest generation of players, Apple hasn't made any huge changes, but it has introduced a brighter screen and an extra 20GB of capacity on the high-end model. I tested the 80GB model (priced at $349) and found a music and occasional video player that's just about as good as it can get.
