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.
