Rating: - Good item, could use some upgrades.
I have never owned an iPod before and didn't know much about there specifics. It's a good product and I love having one. I use it as much for watching video as listening to music though and I wish the video watching function allowed you to fastforward or rewind. I had to download software to get my videos onto the iPod too so that was kind of a pain. I'm also having a little trouble organizing my videos. The sorting system isn't as intuitive as I would have thought coming from Apple but all in all I'm pleased with my purchase and love having one!

A real good product.
Needs an intuitive or young person to learn the functioning, unless you want to go through reading the respective manual to be found in the internet.
In general exceeded my expectations.

I have a new 160gb classic Ipod with the latest firmware and the Ipod randomly pauses songs for 2 seconds and then resumes. MANY people have this problem and none (that I have been able to find) have gotten useful help or hope from Apple. See this thread for many examples of this problem and the lack of solutions: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6714594.
Otherwise it is an OK music player. Why just OK?: It works well as a music player for walking and docked or connected to a car stereo but is too heavy and bulky for running with. The sound is descent but not incredible. Navigation is more cumbersome than needed and lacks customization. The silver back scratches very easily and the face shows finger prints easily. (Protect it right away if you want to keep the new look).
Even with many shortcomings, I do enjoy having all my CDs ripped to Apple lossless for endless playback while walking, connected to my car stereo, or to my home stereo system. (For my home stereo I use the Wadia Itransport dock which bypasses the Ipod DACs and sends a bit perfect signal to my home stereo for truly beautiful CD quality sound).
All in all, 3 stars. Four if they ever fix the random song pauses.
