Apple iPod nano 8 GB (5th Generation) NEWEST MODEL : Really great MP3 player!

I have personally always been one to stray away from "Apple" products, because the Mac computers were hard for me to use and were nothing to brag about. I assumed their Mp3 Players were the same. My first actual Ipod was their 3rd generation Ipod Shuffle which I have carried EVERYWHERE. I never knew I would love an Mp3 player that much. It was easy to use, I dropped it a million times and seriously withstood all abuse. Their headphones were awesome, so I suppose it was only due time for me to update.

I just returned my 4th generation Ipod Nano and switched it in for a 5th generation one. There seems to be many similarities between the two, except for the little extras Apple has added. The screen did get bigger-- many say it isn't too noticeable, but when watching videos, trust me you will notice. There is now a speaker on that back, so when the headphones are unplugged and you click play, you will hear the music or sound of the video coming out. It does sound rather tin like, but heck, pretty cool for such a tiny thing. The video camera is inconveniently placed behind the menu wheel, so I do tend to put my fingers on it quite a bit, BUT it is still a camera and for emergencies it is really great. It honestly isn't any worse than the phone videos one can shoot. For some reason you cannot take still life pictures which is rather odd... An FM radio has been installed and you can pause live streaming, which is pretty cool.... The main reason I am rating this a 5 is because let's all remember, this isn't a PSP or a Game Boy, it is an MP3 player meant to be used as a listening device. None of these features HAD to be added to make it a great MP3 player. The sound quality is wonderful through the headphones, I love the cover flow and it even displays the actual time on top, so you don't have to look for a watch. You can play your DVDs on this, by the way I recommed the WinX DVD software (free version) for that, which took me months to find. The colors are better than 4th generation, but to be honest, if you still own the 4th generation, it really isn't worth throwing yours out and upgrading in my opinion. I am really satisfied with this. I am really careful not to drop it though, because I have no idea and hope not to vouch for what happens after being dropped. **UPDATE: I forgot to mention I bought this in blue and the blue shown by amazon is NOT accurate. The 5th generation Ipod Nano in blue is a dark cobalt blue as opposed to the light one seen.

Apple iPod touch 8 GB (3rd Generation) NEWEST MODEL : Happy iPod Touch Owner

When I first got Apple iPod touch 8 GB (3rd Generation), I had trouble keying in my wireless password and getting online. Then I realized that the password is case-sensitive and the password for my computer is in all caps. When I entered it in all caps, it worked. After it's programmed, you don't have to enter it again.

The best paid app that I installed is DocsToGo so that I can carry important Excel and Word docs with me. DocsToGo converts the iPod into a complete "smart" portable computer.

I could keep them on Gmail Docs on the web but then I'd need access to the web to update and view files.

With DocstoGo, I can edit and view documents in my iPod. Syncing files with the computer is quick and easy - more so than ever now that it's wireless and with just a click of a button. Some inexperienced users might find it tricky to set up. I have an advantage of experience since I used the same program in a Palm and am familiar with syncing files.

I think the old sync method allowed for syncing individual files and the iPod version only allows syncing of all files in a folder but I could be mistaken. (I recommend putting the files that you want to use in a separate folder for this purpose and keeping the folder small for this reason to make syncing faster.)

The internet displays beautifully in the Safari browser just as you see it on a computer. You can pinch the screen to enlarge or make it smaller as needed and view it in portrait or landscape mode as you can with photos.

Once you know how to use iTunes to sync the calendar, address book, music, photos and videos, it works great. Install your favorite games and you're good to go.

Apple iPod touch 64 GB (3rd Generation) NEWEST MODEL : 64GB. The only noteworthy new feature. Also the one I most desperately wanted

This was an interesting purchase. After basically owning (among my family and myself), darn near every version of iPod ever made (gen 1, 2, mini, video, Nano, gen 1 touch, classic), I found myself back in the market around mid-August when my 1 1/2 year old iPod classic bit the dust. You know the drill... everything is happy-go-lucky and then one day your iPod displays no backlight and a sad face icon, never to be played again. Well, after my iPod gave up the ghost, I thoroughly examined the full crop of competition. I will say that I was impressed with the Zune HD pre-release specs, especially the HD video out capability. At the time, Archos had not yet released much info on the new 5 tablet coming soon, so I didn't want to risk waiting on that. Creative also has a new player, the X-Fi2, but like the HD, it maxes out at 32GB. Knowing Apple had a big event planned for September 9th and media reports that the invite referenced music, I anticipated new iPods were on the way and eagerly waited to see how Apple would respond to the increasingly stiff competition. When September 9th arrived, I fired up every live blog, tweet, and report from the Apple event. I waited and waited and waited some more, but aside from the announcements about the price reductions (in response to the Zune) and the 64GB Touch, it was pretty anti-climactic. Honestly, this was my least eagerly purchased iPod in a while. So, the lack of any real groundbreaking news from Apple only made my choice more difficult. After mulling it over for a while, I eventually decided on the 64gb iPod Touch because I wanted the largest flash-based player I could find. (I'll admit the premature demise of my iPod Classic had a lot to do with my decision to insist on flash memory). In the end, simple capacity won out.

At first glance, it looks just like the gen 2 Touch. Form factor, user interface, everything looks just like the gen 2 iPod Touch. They pack double the memory into the same size player as the 32gb model. The headphones are basically the only thing different in appearance from gen 2 and contain the built-in mic for the new addition of voice control. The only downside to voice control is that it would have been much better if they offered a jack for you to use your own headphones. If you plan to use the feature, (or any other apps that use the mic), you're stuck with apple's buds until the 3rd party accessory makers catch up. I don't plan to use it because it seems more of a gadget than anything else.

The body is amazingly slim, especially for a 64gb player. same size as 32gb except they crammed double the flash storage into the tight quarters. With that much memory crammed into such a tight space, I'm interested in seeing if heat ever becomes a factor.

By now, everyone has seen the commercials, drooled over a friend's Touch, or visited a store to play with a Touch, so I'll spare you the more boring details about features like mail, notes, voice memos, calendar, etc, and cut to the nitty gritty:

Screen: Simply gorgeous as usual. Rich lush colors for viewing photos, videos, web browsing and anything else the Touch offers. Much larger and sharper than the Classic. Vivid, bright, and clearly one of the best offered. Can be viewed horizontally or vertically. The screen automatically rotates with you when you rotate the iPod.

Wi-Fi: Great performance. Setup is very simple and compatible with most Wi-Fi security protocols. Someone else said it best, the Safari browser is fast and responsive. It is NOT like surfing a web on a cell phone. Everyone promises 3G this, Edge that, super fast this, but cell phone browsing is like watching paint dry. Not so with the iPod as it uses your fast Wi-Fi connection, not pokey cellular service. The large screen also makes for a more practical browsing experience. The finger controls are just as outstanding as they've always been. The Touch also has maps and locator service, but it's rudimentary at best. It's not true satellite based GPS, or even cellular triangulation (I always wanted to say that) mapping. It establishes your position similar to cell tower triangulation; however, it uses available Wi-Fi hotspots instead of cell towers. If you live in a modern wired town, cool. On the downside, if you ever get lost in the wilderness with this thing... well... just be glad it holds a lot of music and apps.. you'll need it..

Bluetooth: Wonderful for cordless headphones. That's the best benefit. No clunky dongle to attach. Some folks are upset that they can't connect to a PC or cell phone with it.. Frankly, as long as it works with cordless headphones, speakers, and other iPods, I'm happy and don't consider it limited.

Capacity: Yes! Finally, after years of waiting, a 64GB iPod touch. Seriously, 32GB is not remotely close to a power-user's needs. I own over 500 Cd's from over 20 years of collecting, all ripped to MP3. This is in addition to store-purchased MP3's, movies, and pictures. I like to keep a few movies onboard as well as pics because you never know when they might come in handy. 64GB is still a little low, but at least I can fit the majority of my media on it. When they go 80GB or higher, they will have found the sweet spot. I realize flash memory isn't cheap, so I'm curious to see the price point as capacities increase even higher.

Sound quality: While Apple is far from the best sounding MP3 player, they are also far from the worse. Frankly, the first thing I normally do when I buy a new player is chuck the headphones. Microphone and remote aside, this is no exception. I'd rather have a pair of powered headphones delivering true rich fidelity than the uncomfortable sit-in-your-ear-cavity-ready-to-pop-out-at-the-slightest-bump buds traditionally supplied with iPods. Even then, Apple pretty much provides the same sound enhancements they've always provided. I keep things flat because the EQ continues to rely on distortion to tweak the sound. It's better to just listen to it without all the distorted "enhancements".

The touch screen seems every bit as responsive and quick as it's always been. As for the new and improved processor, I don't see a world of differences in speed between this and earlier gen touches. I'm sure performance is enhanced; I just don't see it on a truly noticeable level. It's still a lot quicker than navigating with the click-wheel on the hard-drive Classic.

As for the apps, I know this might irk some folks, but I have absolutely no intention of using apps. I simply don't buy my personal media players for that reason. I'm sure they're great time passers for flights and such, but honestly, it was my least sought option. Just a personal preference.

Overall, I'm happy with my purchase. I would still like increased capacity and more audio/video support from Apple (Where is support for WMV, WMA, Flac, Ogg??? Even the Zune will play AAC). Also, a radio is so long overdue it's ridiculous. But I guess the hope for these features will keep me glued to the blogs and tweets again when Apple has its next big iPod event next year. One thing's for sure, increasingly stiff competition from excellent contenders like the new Archos 5 (simply awesome), and the Zune HD will hopefully keep Apple on their A-game, which can never be a bad thing.

Apple iPod classic 160 GB Black (7th Generation) NEWEST MODEL : My favorite iPod to date

NOTICE: This review is for the NEW 2009 160GB iPod Classic, NOT the 2007 160GB iPod Classic!

The new 160GB iPod Classic is easily Apple Inc.'s best iPod to date, and out of all of the iPods that I own, this is my favorite.

First, the capacity of this iPod is simply unbeatable. I've yet to see another portable media player that can match the iPod Classic in capacity. I have a huge music library, and it's nice to be able to carry every song that I own on my person at all times. What's more, thanks to the iPod Classic's capacity, I also have room to carry a few videos with me, and some of my photos. If you don't like having to pick which songs to load onto your portable media player, the iPod Classic is the way to go.

The second thing that I love about this iPod can be summed up in two words: it works. The 160GB iPod Classic that was introduced in 2007 was extremely buggy, had a non-responsive Clickwheel on many units, crashed frequently, and required a hit-and-miss firmware update to stop the hard drive from spinning even when the device was "off," which often lead to dead batteries. All of these problems left the 2007 160GB iPod Classic warming shelves and earning it the infamous "honor" of being the "worst selling iPod ever," according to Apple. I'm pleased to say that the new 160GB iPod Classic released earlier this month has virtually none of these problems. There's no "spinning hard drive bug," the Clickwheel is incredibly responsive, and the device isn't crash-prone. While it's true that many of these issues were fixed with last year's iPod Classic, there hasn't been a truly functional 160GB model until now. To put it bluntly, this is the iPod that Apple should've released in 2007.

Another thing that I really like about this iPod, and the iPod Classic in general, is it's ability to double as an external hard drive. While I believe that the iPod Nano is also capable of this, the only iPod that really has enough space to function as an external hard drive is the iPod Classic. The hard drive functionality admittedly reduces the number of devices I have to carry on me at any given time. If you regularly work with large files and are considering a new iPod, the iPod Classic is the way to go, plain and simple.

So what are the caveats? Well for starters, as with every other iPod Classic, this is a hard-drive (rather than flash-memory) based device. As a result, it has moving parts which make it unsuitable for running or any physical activity that exerts mechanical shock onto the iPod. Unless you exercise constantly with your iPod though, this really shouldn't be an issue. The only other caveat, which is more of personal taste than an actual flaw, that I can find, is that Apple has not made any cosmetic changes to this device since they introduced it in 2007. Now don't get me wrong, the point of an iPod "Classic," is to retain the "Classic" design, but after seeing how much better a black Clickwheel looks on the silver iPod Nano, I'd have thought that Apple would have given the silver iPod Classic a black Clickwheel as well. However, I admit that this is entirely my personal preference and not a "flaw" per se. I've put a quick list of pros and cons together, which can be seen below:


Pros: Largest iPod Capacity-wise, long battery life, "Genius" feature, excellent value for your money, well-built, doubles as an external hard drive, and improvements to Cover Flow.

Cons: Hard Drive (rather than Flash memory) based storage medium; device is cosmetically identical to the 2007 80GB model. (I still don't understand why Apple hasn't colored the Clickwheel black on the silver model to match the iPod Nano.)

Finally, I would highly recommend this product, which is why it gets five stars from me. I don't like the iPod Nano; it's too small for my hands, and the screen is too small for my eyes. While the iPod Touch may have app store access and Wi-Fi, I find it to be a really gimmicky device, that makes for a poor portable media player, (Apple was wise to position it as a handheld game system,) and is really an "iPhone without a phone." In contrast, the iPod Classic is an excellent portable media player, it has an excellent interface, and it only costs $249 dollars. To put things in perspective, the 2009 160GB iPod Classic costs $70 dollars more than a 16GB iPod Nano, and $150 dollars less than a 64GB iPod Touch. All in all, I highly recommend this product.

Apple iPod touch 32 GB (3rd Generation) NEWEST MODEL : YES, this IS an improvement over the 2nd Generation iPod touch

First of all, let's get the whining out of the way. No, there's no camera on this iPod touch. But honestly, do you really need that cruddy 640x480 video camera they put in the iPod nano for your iPod touch? Do you really not have a camera on your cell phone?!?!

I didn't need a camera. I have a nice camera on my mobile phone and I barely ever use it (I suspect because I'm not a MySpace user). However, I was happy to see the improvements they DID make to the new 3rd Generation iPod touch.

* Faster CPU. This means that games, web surfing, and apps run 50% faster, and it's noticeable when you go from the older model to the newer one.

* OpenGL ES 2.0 graphics. Soon there will be games that offer advanced effects, and this iPod touch will be ready for it. At the time of this writing there are only three games with Open GL ES 2.0 support, but eventually you will be required to have it to use some apps. I'd rather have it than not have it. Besides, water, shadows, and other things look great with it.

* New earbuds with mic/remote control. Now you can control the iPod touch without looking at the screen, and use apps like Skype and Shazam without adapters. Very handy.

* Voice commands. You can use the mic to control your music. Press and hold the button on the mic to enter Voice Command mode, then say "Play artist _______" and it will play that artist. You can also ask "What band plays this?" or say "Play album _______" and it will comply. The voice recognition is very impressive, and the voice that speaks back to you is understandable, even if it mispronounces some things.

* Louder speaker. The built-in speaker sounds better to me. Louder, and much more clear when playing music or game sound.

There are also a few things that are in this model of iPod touch that are not in earlier models, but has yet to be "activated" by software. These include an FM receiver, FM transmitter, and 802.11n transmitter. Apple will no doubt sell us a future software update that will include a radio tuner, 802.11n support, and possibly even the ability to broadcast with the built-in FM transmitter from your iPod touch to your car stereo without a third-party accessory.

So yeah, this is an improvement over the 2nd Generation model. I'll trade all those features for a camera any day!

And of course, everything that was in the 2nd Gen iPod touch is here as well. Bluetooth support with the 3.0 software (nothing like wireless headphones for your music!), physical volume control on the left side of the iPod touch, nice screen, lots of storage space, and amazing support when it comes to accessories; This has the same form factor as the 2nd Gen model, so you should have no trouble finding a case or docking device to work with it.

If you've already got apps and iTunes Store purchases that you'd like to keep using, this is a nice upgrade. You get a lot of power in this little pocket computer... And the music playback quality is quite good, too!

Apple iPod nano 16 GB (5th Generation) NEWEST MODEL : Best iPod Yet

I really didn't need a new iPod as I currently own an iPhone 3G(S), two older Nanos, an older 1 GB Shuffle and two iPod Classics in 15 GB and 30 GB configurations that I recently installed new batteries in. But I HAD to have the new one and justified it to myself by Apple's seductive inclusion of an FM radio in this 5th generation edition.

Having said all of that, I am really impressed with this new 5th generation iPod Nano. I find that the FM radio has great reception and is easy to use, unlike the Apple dongle radio attachment I use on my previous generation Nano. The radio software integration is great and very easy to use, set favorite stations and pause as necessary to talk on the phone and then easily resume where the music or talk show left off for up to 15 minutes.

The playback of pre-recorded movie video is clear and the sound is very good as with earlier iPods. The video recording is simple to use but not of very high quality - about what you would expect from a cell phone- but I really don't plan on using this as a video camera. Would have been nice if Apple had included a still camera as well but I suspect the quality would not be great without adding more componentry requiring more space and cost. I did note that this iPod has a speaker built in (which I assume is the microphone as well) but its sound quality is not good.

The pedometer function (Fitness) is interesting and can be used without any external attachments. It only counts steps and not distance so I assume that I will need to multiply the counted steps by stride length to come up with distance walked. Ironically, it does have you put in your weight but I'm not certain how this is used.

The build quality is superb, the unit is very compact and light weight with Apple's customary intuitive user interfaces that make it easy to use right out of the box without reading the instructions. In summary, I am very pleased with my new iPod and am rapidly working on irrefutable justifications for its purchase before the credit card statement arrives and my wife asks, "Did you buy ANOTHER iPod?".

Apple iPod touch 16 GB (2nd Generation) NEWEST MODEL : Pleased as Punch

This product is one of my favorite inventions ever. It is incredibly easy to use. My daughter knew how to use it in a week when she was a year and a half old. They are durable. When you have a child it is worth an extra cost if it means that your child won't break it easily. It has also come in very handy when my family goes out anywhere. I download videos from itunes of my daughters favorite cartoons and she can be entertained for hours anywhere. She can watch spongebob while we are shopping and I don't need to hear about all the things she thinks I should buy. On top of that when I have to be away from my family I have all my pictures on there so they can be near me. I never have to be bored waiting anywhere because of all the apps and it also has all of the other benefits of a normal mp3 player including a great amount of song storage.

Apple iPod classic 120 GB (6th Generation) NEWEST MODEL : The Original - Survives

The updated iPod Classic was probably the least exciting of the new iPods announced in the September 2008 update, but that does not mean it should be dismissed.

I own the 160 GB iPod Classic that has now been discontinued, but there are few differences (perhaps the biggest being the much slimmer shape of this 120 model), and I did get to check this updated 120 GB version out at the store, when picking up the new nano and touch.

Firstly, the 120 GB version is again smaller than the largest capacity available last year, but it is a single platter hard drive, which allows it to maintain the slim shape of the 80 GB version from last year. More storage, a hundred dollars less, and just as small. That is progress despite calls from others that the classic isn't exciting. It still serves its purpose as the original iPod idea. Big capacity in a simple to use device.

Next, the software has been slightly updated on the iPod Classic. It now includes Genius, like iTunes and the other new iPods. This allows you, when on a song you enjoy, to select the genius feature. The iPod will then compile a list of songs (playlist), which goes together with the original song you were listening to. This helps you rediscover music in your library, with a playlist to fit your mood at the time. I have been using the genius feature for a few days now, and it is impressive the way it compiles these playlists. I was skeptical, but overall, it does a good job. Furthermore, as another review mentioned, the iPod does seem more responsive with this update from what I saw at the store compared to my original 160 GB iPod Classic. Some speculation has been that the older iPod Classics will receive the software update of this new one, but I'm not holding my breath on that.

Overall, the original iPod concept was so good, and that is why the iPod Classic is still a solid choice for a music and media player. It will hold thousands and thousands of songs (up to 30,000 according to Apple at 128 bitrate). I also backup some important files to my iPod Classic, in disk mode, so that I have that additional extra copy of my most vital files. When you have such a large iPod, you can do that. It shouldn't be forgotten either that while the display of the iPod Classic isn't as good as the iPod Touch or iPhone, it is still quite good and you can play music videos, TV shows, and movies purchased on the iTunes Store.

Battery life for this new 120 GB model improved over the 80GB model from last year. Apple now estimates it at 36 hours audio and 6 hours video.

I'd recommend the iPod Classic without hesitation, to those who have more than 8 or 16 GBs of music in their iTunes library and want to carry their entire collection. Furthermore, if you have videos and video podcasts you want to always carry with you, again, you can't beat the storage. I have the lower capacity flash devices as well, but the big hard drive based iPod Classic continues to play an important role in my iPod Collection.

Apple iPod touch 32 GB (2nd Generation) NEWEST MODEL : Beautiful device

It's astonishing how quickly technology leaps - I bought an iPod nano when they first came out and was even then amazed by its simplicity and power. Now, only a few years later, and at roughly the same price, the iPod touch is effectively a pocket computer that, by the way, plays songs quite well. We bought this for my son (he saved up half and then got the rest for his birthday). It's pretty amazing. He uses it to plot our car routes, to check the weather, to look up information, and, of course, to play games and listen to music. I told him I remembered when my parents bought one of the old Apple II's and then IIe's and an early Mac. Now there's more power in his pocket than ever dreamed of in those older machines - which were pretty astonishing at the time.

Others have talked about the specs and capacities of this device so I won't add to that. Just adding my take: a handy, fun, and astonishingly powerful little device. Even better, it looks so good and feels so nice in the palm of the hand. It's beautifully designed. Highly recommended.

Apple iPod touch 8 GB (2nd Generation) NEWEST MODEL : Almost "Untouchable"

One year ago I purchased the 16GB original iPod Touch. At that time, I found that even though it had some flaws, the over-all package made it one of the best iPods available. Now, one year later, Apple has released the next generation Touch. I've now had it for a few days, and here's what I found: the second gen iPod Touch is a marked improvement over the the first gen, and comes even closer to perfection. Keeping this in mind, this review will show one big, and a number of smaller shortcomings. It may also be difficult to justify upgrading from the 1st to 2nd gen unless you simply must have one of the few hardware improvements, and can live with the fact that you may have to re-purchase some of your accessories.

Size and Dimensions
The iPod Touch now sports a more rounded design on the back, making it look slightly thinner and more like the iPhone than the original did (it is not really thinner than it's predecessor, just looks that way). Unfortunately, the back plate is still made from stainless steel, and this plate attacts fingerprints and scratches almost magically. After one year of near-constant use the backplate of my first gen Touch looks a bit like a wild etch-a-sketch (I carry the Touch in my pocket). Interestingly, the glass on the front appears (after one year of heavy use) to be absolutely scratch-resistant. It's the backside (that also carries the custom engraving) that quickly becomes blemished. I would have preferred a brushed metal/aluminium backplate. I had to look it up, but the new Touch is slightly lighter (a few grams) - but it looks thinner (thanks to the tapered edge design). The rounded edges make it fit my palm slightly better, making it feel just right (to be honest, the original Touch was already very, very good in this respect). Other than that the outside dimensions exactly match that of the original Touch. The most visible change from the front is that the steel from the backplate now frames the glass much like it did on the original iPhone.

Touch Screen and Controls
The screen is simply gorgeous. It's bright, crisp, has great contrast, and can adapt it's brightness to the ambient light. In direct sunlight, much like it's predecessor it becomes difficult to read correctly. In shade it's perfectly readable -- a feat considering how bright a display has to be to achieve that. Color temperature of the display has shifted slightly downwards (or, to sound less pompuous: the display's colors have shifted slightly from a blueish to a golden tinge, something you wouldn't notice unless you have the two devices side by side).

The touch screen is very responsive, and as I stated before, absolutely scratch-resistant. Surviving a full year in my pocket along with metallic objects such as my keys is a testament to it's durability (looking at the stainles steel backside is a constant reminder just how badly it could have been scratched). As with the original Touch, the same problems occur when you try to control the device 'blind' (i.e. while it is in your pocket): without looking at it, you simply can't. Fortunately, Apple has addressed the most important drawback with this design: a hardware volume control. The screen's resolution remains at 480x320, which is very good (certainly better than my iPod Classic's). Interestingly, I've found out that ripping videos to this resolution does not necessarily yield noticeably better results than for the iPod classic's (320x240) screen, so I now rip to that resolution, conserving some memory.

Summary:
The 2nd generation iPod Touch is an almost perfect device. It combines top-notch video/audio, world-class UI, great casual gaming, hundrets of apps, and full access to the Internet into a single, beautiful package. To sum it up neatly: Untouchable. Well -- almost. It has one big flaw if you have invested in accessories: it may not be compatible with them, as Apple has changed the iPod connector pin-out (again). With those reservations, I recommend the Touch to anyone. Also great: owners of the 1st gen Touch can get most of these goodies with a simple, inexpensive software upgrade.
