Apple 8 GB iPod Nano AAC/MP3 Players (3rd Generation)Brand: Apple
Binding: Electronics
Another great value [Posted on 2008-11-25]
This is my third I-pod. It is a fantastic value because it stores as much as the Classic that I purchased for about one-half the price. Each of my Ipods has different purposes. This model is the one that I keep in my car and take on trips. It is a back-up for the Classic. It is not as solid as the more expensive model which I keep at home attached to my sound system. There is a definite quality and feel difference among the models but the Nano is better for travel because it's lighter, smaller and less expensive so I am less concerned about any damage that might occur. If you already have a Classic or more expensive Ipod, consider the Nano for back-up. If you want to have a quality MP3 player and have not invested yet in one, you will not get better value than with the Nano.
It's an ok device - not great. [Posted on 2008-11-25]
I've had my iPod nano - 4GB for nearly a year. It was a Christmas gift. It's a nice little device. I have about 3.2GB of music stored on it and I use it nearly daily at work. I plug it up to my XP box at work and listen to my music all day while I work. My experience with this device has not been with out incident. I have had to restore it twice due to lock-up issues. It has lost all or part of the content on 3 separate occasions. I don't ever want to hear some MAC head tell me how good Apple products are. I've had XP running on my PC since it was originally introduced. I've had the iPOD for only 11 months. I've actually had more trouble with the iPOD in 11 months than I've had with my PC in 6 years (which included a system upgrade). You have to have iTunes to use the iPOD. You have to "Authorize" your PC before you can play any purchased music from the iTunes store. You can't transfer the music to the iPod until the PC is Authorized either. It's a simple step, true, but still annoying. But you are not limited to having to purchase music from iTunes. I download MP3s from Amazon. iTunes pick those up immediately and there is no need to "Authorize". Same goes for ripped CDs. My massive MP3/WMA library was also imported to iTUnes upon installation. The WMA files were converted to M4A format and stored separately for iTunes. So needles to say, I have music tracks now existing as WMA and M4A. M4A is MPEG4 and is not recognized by Windows Media Player, yet. iTunes does not come with the iPod, you must go to Apple.com, register the iPod, then download iTunes.The only things that come with the iPod are the earbuds, the USB cable and a little instruction sheet that directs you to Apple.com.

Great value. Works like a charm. Was delivered by express mail at no charge. I would reccommend everyone to purchase at least one item thru Amazon.com and you,too, will be convinced that this the way to go when ever possible.
Worth it [Posted on 2008-11-25]
I bought this one for my mom because she liked mine. Easy to use, tiny, tons of memory (1200 songs). I'm not sure how the scroll wheel will wear, but I don't have a case for it. I would recommend getting a case. Didn't seem worth the extra $ for a 4th gen.
One Year.. still good [Posted on 2008-11-27]
I bought this as an Open piece from Sams club a year back. I wasnt sure whether it would work long. But it did work. I had to reset it a couple of times... which I didnt like. But other than that, i like this. Its pretty handy.
