  • No, it's not I Robot, it's i Pod!

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Aug 18, 2004
    Pros: Looks great, easy controls, large storage, very durable, Apple software integration.
    Cons: Definitly expensive, included headphones, limited playlist creation on Ipod.

    Summary: ----- My Pod Buddy ----- It’s only fitting I review my Ipod here since I purchased it partially with my Epinions credits. After seeing the Ipod up close I finally decided I needed (needed? I guess desired is a better term) to have one of ... read more

  • The best iPod

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 24, 2008
    Pros: best mp3 player interface, arguably the best interface for the iPods
    Cons: screen died after being in a hot car

    Summary: I got this iPod a few years ago and I loved it. I like the interface on this iPod much better than the one I have now, (4th gen iPod color 20 gig with the click wheel). Personally I hate the click wheel! I love the touch sensitive buttons on this ... read more

  • Old Faithful

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 31, 2007
    Pros: Utterly, totally, and fantastically reliable, iPod sleekness, easy to use
    Cons: CAN'T BE USED AS AN HDD!!! Screen + software to a minor degree

    Summary: Why'd I buy it? Well, I didn't; I wouldn't spend good money on a gadget like this. It was, however, given to me in June 2004 as a High School Graduation present. I have also never been one that liked to fit into the crowd by buying the same stuff as ... read more

  • Good all round product but as some problems

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    May 9, 2005
    Pros: Good Sound quality, lightweight, looks good, easy to use
    Cons: Poor battery life, damages too easy, poor software, lacks applications,non colour screen.

    Summary: I have owned my Ipod for over a year now and I am leaving Apple to get an Iriver to replace this product. The product is a good mp3 player with good sound quality and stores a large amount of songs. The reason I am leaving the Ipod is because it scrates ... read more

  • Overhyped MP3 player.

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Apr 18, 2005
    Pros: Sexy, sleek, good integration and design.
    Cons: Battery and buttons and accessories need a lot of improvement.

    Summary: The good: Beautiful design. Interface is easy to navigate. Good appeal and recognizability. Excellent overall design and integration. The bad: Went through 3-4 sets of Apple brand headphones. They are cheap quality and break easily. The driver ... read more

  • The iPod....Your Music Collection In One Hand

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Feb 7, 2005
    Pros: Capacity, beautiful appearance, small size, availability of accessories
    Cons: Battery life, sometimes buggy, scratches easily

    Summary: I bought my iPod in fall of 2003 after serious contemplation. I decided that, yes, I did want any of my albums or mp3s accessible at any moment, and that yes, $400 was worth the money. Fifteen months later, I still don't regret the decision at all. ... read more

  • Re-Evaluating My Love Affair With My iPod After A Year

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 13, 2005
    Pros: Your whole music library in your hands. And it's the prettiest.
    Cons: Battery life is only mediocre.

    Summary: Yup, it's been a year with my iPod, third generation, 20 GB'er. While this is far from being the first review out there on this product, I think that having this thing for so long qualifies me to talk about some battery life issues. Also, I'm just lazy. ... read more

  • Music Lover's PARADISE!!!

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Dec 9, 2004
    Pros: A Robust, all-rounder. Excellent storage, sound, and user interface!
    Cons: None

    Summary: I have had this sleek, light, AWESOME mini-monster for almost a year now....and boy!! It is indeed the 8th wonder of the world. I am not sure about how it works with Windows, since I own a Mac, and when I plug it in, it just opens iTunes and updates ... read more

  • a tale of iPod envy

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Dec 3, 2004
    Pros: Lightweight, sleek and trendy, ergonomically friendly.
    Cons: Screen scratches easily. Battery life poor depending on usage.

    Summary: I purchased this sexy lil number after hanging out with a bunch of people who all suspiciously owned one. They were all raving about them, and I thought, secretly, 'They've all gone mad'. They were talking in iSpeak, iTunes this, 99cent downloads, ... read more

  • The greatest ipod

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Oct 23, 2004
    Pros: voice recorder, back up hard drive, store digital pictures. Able to use w/Windows iTunes.
    Cons: price too high. But you get what you pay for and it is worth it.

    Summary: Design. When you see it in pictures it doesn't convey the sleek interface and every tiny detail. You have to experience it in your hand. Minimalistic, yet so functional. There is no overload of buttons and functions you'll likely never use. The latest ... read more

  • iPod Takes Overwhelming Grip of the Music World from the Grip of Music Lovers

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Oct 17, 2004
    Pros: Compact, Large Storage Capacity, Feature-Packed, Great Clarity, Ease of Use, Mac/PC Compatible
    Cons: 8 hours of battery life, backlight reduces battery significantly, good deal but still pricey.

    Summary: I received a 20gb 3rd Generation iPod for my 18th birthday, and I've got to say, it is by far the most innovative, feature-packed music player available on the market. Which is perhaps why the iPod has overwhelming control over the portable music player ... read more

  • Great Device software can cause CD burning problems

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Sep 9, 2004
    Pros: Great sound and nice Hard drive capabilities for data transfer.
    Cons: Software conflict with CD burning software.

    Summary: This IPOD itself is great and more fun than a new puppy. You can move flawlessly from your favorite Work Out music to your audio books using the playlists and there is lots of room for all your favorites. The system has never skipped or flinched and ... read more

  • Someone who owns an I-pod and offers an unbiased opinion

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Aug 19, 2004
    Pros: Designed BY people who use D-music players FOR people who use them. Read the review.
    Cons: Battery life is weak, must have windows XP for PC users

    Summary: Obviously if you are taking time to read reviews you are a prudent consumer and deserve an objective opinion from an owner NOT some who tired or borrowed one. Simply put, I received this as a gift, and probably would not have purchased one myself because ... read more

    Aug 4, 2004
    Pros: Sound Quality, Speed of Transfer, Sleek and Sexy Style
    Cons: Pricey, poor battery life, mediocre ear buds, and no case

    Summary: The iPod was my first heavy duty mp3 player I have ever bought. I quickly bought the iPod following the trend, now I regret the choice because there are other products with better statistics out there. But I will supply the information, and ... read more

    Pros: Small, excellent quality, large 5,000 song memory.
    Cons: Poor battery life. Remote control quality. Scratches easily.

    Summary: This is my first apple product and I must say I am quite impressed. The packaging will make you feel like a kid on Christmas morning. You will get excited when you see how well this product is packaged and presented. This product is excellent. With ... read more

    Jul 10, 2004
    Pros: Beautiful design, ease of use, range of accessories
    Cons: Price, easily scratched, battery life

    Summary: I can't remember exactly when my iPod obsession started. I can recall wanting an mp3 player at some point last year, and browsing a bewildering range of them to find one that I liked. I was immediately enthralled by the iPod. It just looked so amazing, ... read more

  • I Love my IPOD

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jul 8, 2004
    Pros: Great storage, compact size, stylish looks, user friendly
    Cons: unreplacable battery, earphones die out quickly

    Summary: About two years ago, i noticed that my coworker had a snazzy little white device that she called an "ipod". This was a strange little music player that immediately appealed to me. It was compact, had great storage capabilty, and it was really cute! ... read more

  • Flawed Brilliance

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jun 19, 2004
    Pros: Brilliant Design.
    Cons: Annoying iTune software. High price. Sensitive touch panel control.

    Summary: Buying an iPod is like buying an Armani suit. Yes, a perfectly nice suit can be bought at Mens Warehouse for $200, but theres something different about putting on an Armani. When your skin comes in contact with that soft Italian wool, you feel rich, ... read more

  • Impressive

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    May 9, 2004
    Pros: Impressive storage space, highly versatile, lots of accessories
    Cons: Very expensive, battery life

    Summary: I wanted an iPod for a new job I started a maintenance worker. Spending 7 hours outside more or less without conversation is bit boring. The new paycheck would also support the initial cost of the unit too. Its pretty cool looking. I'm a PC user but ... read more

  • Want a Portable Jukebox? iPod is the answer!

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Mar 24, 2004
    Pros: small, compact, easy to use
    Cons: battery discharges fairly quick when updated on a PC

    Summary: I have been hesitant to purchase an mp3 player because of the limitations on memory. Shuffle a memory card.... shuffle a cd.. what is the difference except one holds more, and is smaller... easier to lose? When the iPods came out PC compatible, I ... read more
