1 out of 5 stars poor   May 23, 2008
 2 out of 13 found this review helpful

My new nano arrived this morning. I have an old Ipod and use Itunes already, no problem, or so I thought. Having followed the very limited instruction booklet I charged it up & plugged the new slimline nano into my pc so I could move my Itunes music across. But the pc did not automatically open Itunes. This has never been a problem with the old Ipod. I've had to enlist the help of an IT techie to come take a look later today so my initial view on this product is that it is poor.


5 out of 5 stars Worthwhile purchase.   May 9, 2008

I use this with the nike sports kit when running. I use it to play music when working out. I use it to watch movies when travelling. In one month the iPod has become an integral part of many activities and I'd replace it straight away if it were to disappear.
It might not fit my entire music collection but as long as I am selective the iPod can fit all the music I want. Despite the small size the quality of the picture is excellent. It fits comfortably in my pocket.
I have never had to manage the battery life as it has more than enough to play a film as well as all the music I could want in a day.
It does crash occasionally which is disappointing, hopefully an update will stop that happening.



5 out of 5 stars excellent little player   April 28, 2008
 5 out of 6 found this review helpful

I bought this as a 43 year old male who had little experience of MP3 players and wanted something to listen to whilst at the gym. Its a great piece of kit, the sound is truly amazing and is ideal for using whilst on the treadmill etc at the gym. I also bought an Inique leather case for it(from amazon)to stop it getting bashed about and I cannot fault it at all. The only reservation I do have is that the instruction manual supplied with the ipod is pretty useless particularly if you are new to these, but once you go on the apple website you can read the full manuals online and it soon becomes very easy to use. Definately would buy another.


5 out of 5 stars Ipod Just Got Better!!   April 22, 2008
 8 out of 11 found this review helpful

I cannot understand why Apple Ipods get so much negative feedback here on Amazon. In the past few years Ive owned a 20GB Ipod and now ive just bought this 8GB Ipod Nano. I was really worried abou buying one from reading some of the reviews people have left. Infact these negative reviews nearly put me off buying one altogether although I need not have worried.

When I received my Nano through the post I was blown away by its small size. It is incredible. I was also impressed by the black gun-metal finish which is a great departure from the old Ipods which now tend to look very cheap. The screen is a good size and the Nano fits perfectly in my pocket, whilst still being very sturdy so I have no fear that its going to snap in two!

The Cover Flow is super and yes the nano does tend to freeze from time to time (just like my computer) but this is not a problem. All you have to do is hold down the menu button with the middle button for ten seconds and the Nano reboots itself. Easy peasy!

Some of the reviewers here on Amazon seemed to have a problem with the sound generated from the Ipod. I cannot understand this at all. What I did was to go to settings, then volume limit, then turn volume limit all the way up. If you do this I guarantee your ear-drums will bleed!

All in all a great little Ipod, forget what the negative reviewers have said, I doubt that they even bought one. Buy it, you will not be disappointed!



5 out of 5 stars Simple to use & Great Fun   April 6, 2008
 3 out of 4 found this review helpful

I was updating my iPod shuffle, which I've had for some years. I decided to stick with Apple but decided to update to the 3G nano!

What can I say its fantastic, so many features that are fun to use; the Quiz is a favourite for those quiet times in the office! It is very simple to use I haven't even read any of the instructions yet and I've still managed to muddle my way through it.

I would suggest buying a power charger as connecting it to the Laptop every time you want to charge it can be a pain! The silicon covers are also great for protecting it from little scratches and knocks!

If you want a MP3 that is a little bit special then go for this...you won't regret it!
