Customer Review: my second review!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
after checking my reviews status online, i noticed that many people did not find my review articulate. i am now here to redo it. i got this for my bday and am listening to it right now!! again you must expierence to the sound to understand the magnitude of it. SMALLLL!!!!! wow!!! i have a special case that is flexible yet easy to grip. not too bad but very expensive!! a little case for a nano is $20.00!!!!! man! and one thing i mst clear up, for all of u customers that think that it has everything you need you are DEAD WRONG!!!!! it DOES NOT come with a charger!!! you must purchase for aprox. $30.00! and itunes!! oh itunes!!! it is great and all but can be complex!!! my friend and i started @ 7:00 and got the first song @ 8:30!!! no we are not slow! there are no detailed instructions on getting music from your library to your actual ipod!! must figure out on your own!!!!! it is easy once you figure it out (as long as that takes) if you dont frustrate easily you will enjoy yourself!!! it is great when you get the songs that you like.worth the money!!! one other thing, you do need a member ship to download. lukily it is free. but you get a personal ipod page. a thing that is great for us kids is the prepaid cards. you need a membership but no credit card. i used one myself!!!! great buy!!!!!Customer Review: I'm glad I slept on the iPod mini
Summary: 5 Stars
After being an ipod owner for the last two years, I was in the market for a second iPod. I slept on the iPod mini and I'm glad because now there's the iPod mini.
I love it. I was worried that it'd be a total drag to set up but it was perfectly compatible with all my previous iTunes stuff. I didn't have to even load the included CD all I did was downlaod the latest verisons of the iPod updater and I made sure that I had the latest upgrade of iTunes.
The nano works with all my previous cables for my 3rd generation iPod. So after I removed it from the package I plugged it in my previous iPod's AC adapter. The one draw back is the nano does not include an AC adapter but you can still charge it with the usb cable. I was able to get a full charge in about an hour with the AC adapter.
With that said, I highly reccomend this amazing mp3 player. It exceeded my expectations. The ease of use, the design, everything is wonderful. Now you may think...why spend money on an mp3 player that only holds 500 songs? Well, how many people do you know that have time to listen to 5000 songs everyday? I can manage my playlists. I control what's being fed into my iPod and I like that. This is a great 2nd iPod for current iPod owners and a treat to first time buyers.

This little gadget may not be for everyone, but It does heck of a good job impressing everyone.
First and foremost, you gotta remember that this is a MP3 player. As long as it can stock a good amount of music and play it, you should be happy. THE NANO CAN DO THIS.
Then, sound quality. You need better than decent sound quality to enjoy your music. THE NANO CAN ALSO DO THIS.
Then, the look. You dont wanna be carrying an ungly device around with you 24/7. THE NANO IS SO FAB THAT YOU'LL WANNA TAKE IT OUT IN FRONT OF YOUR FRIENDS AND NOT LET THEM LAY A FINGER ON IT -SERIOUSLY.
Pros:
Looks fabulous
Sounds like any MP3 player should
Can stock up decent amounts of your favorite music
Nice little extras here and there
Stock images as well as music
Cons:
.Very fragile
.You cant keep your eyes of it
.The black version scratches very easily -so be carefull with it!
.Battery life may not be decent for hardocre/all day music listeners, but this isnt a problem for me as I charge it every night
.Cant think of more
This little gadget may not be for everyone, but it defently is for me!!
Customer Review: best balance of usability and portability among all iPods

I just got my 4gb black iPod nano yesterday. I got one because my 4G 20gb iPod was having intermittent dropouts when used with a tape-deck adapter or certain pairs of non-Apple earphones. A few websites surmise that it's a problem with gold-plated jacks. I'm happy to report that no such dropouts occur with the nano, even after purposely twisting and wiggling the jack.
My first day with the iPod nano has been an awesome experience. When not in use, I walked around the whole day with it in my pocket and forgot it was there most of the time. The screen is very bright and easy to read. The click wheel is more sensitive than the one on my 4G iPod, but I got used to it. Amazingly, it continued to work even when a thick clear plastic film separated the wheel from my finger. I guess I should qualify that I'm really not sure whether the wheel is more sensitve or the GUI is just more responsive. Synching on iPod nano over USB 2.0 seems just as fast as my 4G over Firewire 400.
For those worried about the durability of the tiny nano, please read the Ars Technica review. They threw one out of a moving car then ran over it with the car, and it still played.

Man I have been wanting a nano for a minute and today I finally broke down and brought the black 2 GB Nano. I have second generation 6 GB iPod Mini Green but technology moves on she has served me well and plus the mini's plain grey and blue backlit lcd was getting tired she will be retired. I picked the 2 GB Nano because I realized that when i had the 6 GB mini i didn't even listen to half the songs on there so i said 500 songs is enough for me. The Nano is sooooo tight it's so light and thin it feels kinda flimsy but I will get a thick case for it. The fancy case that comes with it is not strong enough to protect it in my pocket. I'm also kinda upset that it does not sync via firewire like my ipod mini it needs usb 2.0 but oh well my 500 Mhz iBook's usb 1.1 worked just as good. It took about 9 minutes or so to sync some songs from itunes not that bad some people complained to death about how slow usb 1.1 is but it really is not that terrible. In conclusion Im satisfied with my Nano
