Advantages: Functional and Cost Effective

Disadvantages: Lack of interface for playlist

This is a great little ipod for music or podcasts while on the go. It doesn't look very impressive or have a lot in the way to wow people, but it is functional and does exactly what it says on the tin. It is ideal for listening while exercising, or doing housework etc, as it is very small, but still has a good space capacity. There is no screen so no way to organise your playlists through the device itself, but playlists can be organised on the computer and transferred to the device, and played in that order. Obviously you cannot play video / MP4s etc, but the main advantage of having no screen is that the battery life is very good and it takes a very short time to charge. The shuffle (randomised playing) only works with music, not podcasts. If you are listening to podcasts you need to have the shuffle switch in the off position or the shows will not play.

Summary: Excellent little ipod for music or podcasts on the go.
