I pod ~in our out~

by maadawg00 , Jul 20 '02
Pros: Can hold up to 1000 songs and sorts out your songs by artist and album.
Cons: NOTHING!
The ipod is great and has a long lasting battery. once i put my songs on the Ipod it will sort them out into artist. Then when you click on the artist you will see the albums you have on it. The Ipod is not confusing to use at all. I think an 7 year old...

The first usable MP3 player

by phatbhuda , Dec 06 '01
Pros: Functional, Sleek, Fun
Cons: A little pricey
When you listen to music, it's nice to have a variety. With CD's and cassettes, that means carrying around more albums.

With the advent of the portable mp3 player, there were several options. Either have a limited set of music with no...

by creason7 , Dec 09 '01
Pros: HUGE 5GB Hard Drive!! Very useful!
Cons: Prone to small scratches

A Music Lovers Dream

by babyjanehudson , Apr 30 '02
Pros: High storage capability, ease of use, excellent sound, great for organizing
Cons: The headphones that come with it are a pain.
I received the iPod as a Christmas present, and it is the most functional gift I have received in years. As a music buff, I find the storage and organization capabilities incredible.
For those with little computer knowledge, the iPod is easy to use....

by juju4242 , Jun 23 '02
Pros: Battery Life, Ease of Use, Size, Protability
Cons: None as of Yet
After reading 100's of review's and watching the price of the Ipod, Apple finally lowered the price of there refurbished units to $299. So I sold my Nomad Jukebox, bought a firewire card from COMPUSA for $39.00 and ordered my Ipod. After carefully...

Slightly disappointed

by brandalina , Jan 30 '03
Pros: Storage capacity, Ease of use
Cons: Poor customer service, remote doesn't work, shuffle function does not work
I recently received an Ipod as a Christmas gift, and my initial excitement with my new toy has quickly faded.

The remote [which was purchased separately] only works if it is being held firmly in place WHILE you are using it. Kind of defeats...

Already Outmoded

by domefirst , Mar 05 '02
Pros: it looks good and it makes people jealous
Cons: it has a too small hard drive
I purchased this device when it first came out and I used it and listened to it and found it to be a good musical friend who carried a lot of music inside of it and I loved it so much.

But what ultimately made me not so happy with my iPod is...

iPod

by ktmxxer87 , Jan 10 '02
Pros: great mp3 player that holds over 1000 songs
Cons: mac only
I got an iPod right after they came out, which was just about when I first heard about it. It is pretty small, about the size of a deck of cards, so it is very easy to carry around. It takes just a few minutes to get to know how to use it as it is...

The best there is . . . for now

by camper8 , Jan 11 '02
Pros: State-of-the-art interface, Mac &PC compatible (mediafour.com), & about 1,000 other reasons you can hear.
Cons: Software glitches(fixed), not for cold weather, headphones don't match quality of the player
In some ways, this review's like Apple's ipod warranty: I can't guarantee this opinion will hold water after ninety days.
Let me explain: while the ipod's definitely the best-of-breed mp3 play right now, I can imagine that the folks at Sony, Rio,...
