well i think that the ipod nanos are retarded!!!

i wanted an ipod mini but NO!!! they dont sell them anymore!!!
i think apple would make sooo much more if they sold both ipod mini and nano!!
they need to start building the mini because the nano and the most lame shuffle arent cutting it!!
and wat is with that ipod u2!

those would be worth buying!!

You can probably only buy minis from retailers or resellers now, since Apple stopped selling them when the Nano came out. I’d say, get something that has growing room; if you have 400 songs, don’t upgrade the Nano to 500, because within a year you’ll probably need a new iPod anyway. Get something with capacity for at least 700 songs. That way it’ll last you longer. That’s just how I see it, anyway.

I got a 30GB iPod video even though I only have 7GB of music. This means that the $300 will last over a span of probably at least 3 more years, if not longer. Sure, it may be out-dated by then, but it’ll still work as well as ever, providing I keep it in working condition. Over three years, basically I paid $100/yr. for that piece of equipment, or if it lasts 5 years, I paid $60/yr. It still seems pricey, but the longer it lasts you (and the less often you have to replace it due to incapacitation or physical damage), the less it costs (or the more it’s worth).

I am totally clueless. I don’t reallt know the difference between a mini, a shuffle and a nano. They all play music but I want to get one that will be useful for me in college. I just bought a nano that only holds 240 songs and that is hardly enough and I am trying to figure out if I should buy a mini or just upgrade my 240 nano to a 500. Will someone please help me.

That article is hilarious. It doesn’t seem right that the Nano would still work after being run over by a car… twice, even if the screen was screwed.

I know it’s been a while after the initial blog, but check this out:

A review of the iPod nano that stands out over the rest, if only for the fact that on page 3 they run it over with a car … and it still works.

One thing the vast majority of reviewers fails to mention: The iPod nano is no longer based on a harddisk storage device but on flash storage, just like the iPod Shuffle.

This results in reduced susceptibility to mechanical vibrations which will certainly appeal to runners and other physically active folks.

No, do you have any idea how expensive it would be to get 60 gigs of flash memory :p
