Advantages: Long battery life, High memory

Disadvantages: Screen scratches too easy

Well what can i say about the ipod nano, it is one of the best mp3 players. It is of slim design, so no hassle to just slide in your pocket.

ABIT ABOUT THE NANO IPOD 8GB

The nano holds up to 2000 songs, which is easily transfered to your pc, using itunes. It really couldent be easier to use, it all explains itself. The only thing that i found was when i first got my ipod was, all the songs i had on my computer, were instantly added to my ipod. This included ringtones i had for my phone, so on first start up i had to delete all the songs i did not want on my Ipod off itunes, which believe me took a long time at least 2 hours. Once you have done that then its all set to go and you just add more songs as you go along.

Also i find that the screen scratches pretty easily, and all your finger marks show up at the back of the ipod, as it is a silver metal. This does not clean off that easily, but to prevent that you can purchase a case. The case will protect the back, but not the screen, so really you would also need to purchase screen protectors. To stop it getting damaged, as mine has.

The swivel wheel, is abit of a pain also. The menu, skip and play/pause buttons are easy enough to use, but when scrolling down to a song sometimes it goes too fast, and you have to fiddle about trying to get it onto the correct song. This is something i still have trouble with now, and i have had my ipod over a year. All you can do is get used to it happening.

You can also create a number of playlists, to suit the mood your in, so you can set one up for dance songs, then one up for slow songs. Depending on what you want to listen to. The ipod also has a very good battery life for upto 24 hours.Which is a long time for an mp3 player, and i find good cos i always forget to charge it when i just get back.

THE IPOD FUNCTIONS

8gb memory
Music, by playlist,artist,song,genres or composer
Photos
Extras, which include : clock, games, contacts, calendar, notes, stopwatch and screen lock.
Settings
A shuffle button
And finally a hold button

I find the hold button very handy, as sometimes u can knock they swivel which is quite easy to do. As the volume is pretty high on this, it stops the volume from been turned up fully, which i have done several times.

ACCESSORIES

Earphones
USB Cable
Itunes disc

If you dident own a pc the ipod nano, would really be pointless, as you do have to download all the music off a pc.

I would recommend buying this as i love my ipod and i do listen to alot of music on the go, just remember to buy a case and screen protectors or it will get scratched!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just so no confusion i am also know as kineticspade on ciao :-)

Summary: i love my ipod, it goes every where with me, i just have to be careful with the screen
