Advantages: Good memory, easy to use

Disadvantages: non

I origianally had the white 20gb click wheel ipod but decided i just needed more memory for my music, there really were so much choice i didn't know which one to go for?
Eventually i decided to go for the 80 gb classic ipod in black (also available in white) and even now against all the latsest ipods i feel this is still one of the best around.
With a good amount of memory this ipod doesnt just hold music, unlike the 1st gen ipods, a whole host of new features are available with this.
Such as cover flow- With Cover Flow on iPod classic, you can flip through your music to find the album you want to hear
Movies and tv shows can be added to your ipod allowing you to watch them anytime anywhere (movies can be purchased from itunes).
Also iPod classic holds up to 25,000 photos you can sync from your Mac or PC via iTunes.
Not only are all these great features available to the ipod classic, there are lots of extra add ons you can get to enhance your ipod for example a docking station to play your music indoors or a car fm tuner so your ipod can be played in your car, and there really are plenty more you can do with this.

Technical details-
80GB hard drive
Holds up to 20,000 songs in 128-Kbps AAC format

I still own this model today and i'm not even thinking about upgrading yet, I've had no problems with this and its still perfect (except a few minor scratches), very simple and easy to use.
