Summary: Almost perfect!
Comment: Don't know about PC users but this iPod synched with my iMac perfectly first time.
/>Superb screen - crystal clear, if a little small.

Really intuitive - you rarely have
to read the manual with Apple products.

Not the best mp3 for sound quality and the
supplied ear buds are worthless - buy some decent Sennheiser cans.

Tip: If iTunes
cannot find the artwork for your albums just open any website that does show the artwork and drag
the image into iTunes. Its easy on the iMac - not tried this on a Windows pc.

Summary: Apple Just keep improving it. Even when you thought there was no room.
Comment: When I first saw this product up close I thought it would be too small. And it is small. Incredibly
small. But when you turn it on you realise that everything still works brilliantly. The screen is
still bright but not garish. I can easily watch a movie in clear quality without blurryness,
pixelation or even bad light contrasts. I don't know how apple do it but they manage to squeeze such
a fantastic product into dimensions that can comfortably fit into my top shirt pocket.
The
wheel is easy to use and doesn't go too fast or too slow when you try and scroll. The scroll even
has a great handling ability and unlike previous nanos, I can easily scroll and then stop exactly on
the thing I was planning to stop on. The only fault I can find (and this is trying hard) is that the
maximum memory is 8gb so I can't fit all the songs on my itunes so I have to go back and delete some
awful album extras whenever i want to put a new single or album on. But this doesn't take long and
should be done anyway.
So in conclusion I think that.......the ipod touch is better. I beats
the nano by a little in everything good about it. Plus it's touch screen and has a bigger screen so
better for movies (which I use it for). But if you aren't a gaget person and just want to listen to
music and maybe the odd movie or you don't want to spend as much, buy a New Nano. Unoless you want
lots of memory in which case buy a classic.
I guess what I'm really trying to say is; buy an
ipod!

Summary: Awesome Piece of Kit
Comment: I have long been an Apple fan (typing this on my Mac Mini and have no less than three iPods sitting
on my desk) but this is something else.

Whilst most iPod models only nudge forward
incrementally throughout their lifespans the move to a 3rd generation Nano has been a massive leap
forward in terms of feaures, interface and pocektability.

First of all lets talk about
the physical features. The Nano is roughly credit card sized and can fit into your wallet as it is
only 6.5mm thick. The touch wheel is perhaps a bit too sensitive compared to previous iPods but you
get used to it. The matt black front is really nice and tactile whilst the back is the usual shiny
chromed finish that will be scratched wihtin minutes of opening the box.

The 3rd gen
Nano is wider than previous version to accommodate the wider screen but don't let that put you off,
it looks really nice and can be held in the palm of one hand easily.

The interface is
really nice, the coverflow feature is my preferred way to flick through my music and as a previous
reveiwer said, it takes a second for the album art to appear when browsing at high speed but
hopefully a future software update will fix this.

There is a nice little search feature
tucked away in there and the usual glut of games, alarms, contacts etc as well as a function to
store and display photos.

For me the killer feature is the video playback, When the 2nd
gen came out I thought, where's the video as I am sure many people did. For that reason alone I
didn't go near it but the video on the 3rd gen is really good. Due to the dense pixels on the screen
a well converted DVD looks the biz and plays smoothly without colour aberrations, jaggies or any
flicker. Really good stuff and not something to be written of as a gimmick. Throw on a couple of
movies and you have a good way to spend when on a long journey. I have watched a few full length
movies and have not had any eye strain, a testament to the clarity of the small screen.
/>In conclusion I really can't rate this highly enough. It has replaced my shuffle as a permanent
resident in my pocket. It goes with me everywhere and I use it everyday. Yeah, the packaged
headphones aren't the best but when were they ever with an IPod. Stick in a pair of Sennheiser or
something and your sorted.

This is a deeply impressive incarnation of a superbly
designed and wonderfully evolved device. In short it has everything I could wish for in such a
compact size. Beautiful, beautiful piece of electronic genius.

Summary: Awesome ipod nano
Comment: This ipod is the best i have owned. once again it only gets 4 stars! ....................... want to
know why??
because of the poor quality earphones you get with them.
spend over £120
for it and the earphones are awful. mine went straight in the bin, and i splashed out for the bose
in-earphones. make such a difference.
other than that the mp3 player is top notch!!!! well
recomended

Summary: A gem
Comment: My previous portable player was an Aiwa walkman, bought cheaply a decade ago in Singapore which
chewed through batteries relentlessly and tended to jump on train journeys. Early reports of poor
sound quality prejudiced me against iPods, but I was persuaded to give the nano a trial after the
Aiwa gave up the ghost. What a revelation! Brilliant sound, great flexibility and enormous
convenience: within two weeks I had downloaded the equivalent of about 100 albums (and have at last
run out of memory - but I have the equivalent of 5.2 days of music).

Gripes? Not many.
The click mechanism needs to be used carefully to avoid overrunning the item you want on the menu.
You need a good memory to track down some items: artists and composers are initially listed
alphabetically by first names (can be a problem). The use of the 'song' as the measure is rather
irritating for classical music enthusiasts: if you want to buy something over c. 6 minutes in length
on iTunes, you usually have to buy the entire album: annoying if you want only one work on the
album. I had some initial problems organsing transfers from my CDs, but the absence of problems
later suggests the fault was mine. I used the helpline once during that time, and received some
useful advice from Apple. And as many reviewers have commented, the headphones provided are not up
to much - the Sennheisers recommended by many are excellent (and do not disturb others when used).


In short, a gem.
