ipod - nano or classic?
6 Answers
I have decided 2 buy an ipod, but am unsure of whether to buy a nano or a classic. The price is nt an issue, as they are only �30 apart. This small price difference seems 2 sway me more 2 a classic, as the memory is much larger. However, i have previously had an ipod classic and ended up having 4 (as each one broke). I like the look of the nano's, and they should have enough memory - it's just if I end up putting lots of videos on it. Does anyone have any recommendations? Any problems with either of them?? TIA X

Well, the nano's screen is about 1.5" diagonal. I can't see how you can watch too many videos on that, but perhaps that's just me.
If you absolutely have to or really like to carry all your music with you at all times, then sure, get a classic.
But if you can survive with just your few thousand top songs, then go for the nano. The smaller size is really useful.
I know of no major issues with either of them. Though the same goes for older iPods too -- not sure why you had so many issues! Amazing bad luck, I'd think.

personally I'd get anything BUT an Pod - preferably something that uses batteries rather than being forced to spend serious money to have a powerpack changed

AC: I've had a 3G iPod since this time 2004. I used it frequently (less frequently now), and it still has about 80% of its charge capacity, and has never failed me. Works great.
This is the same kind of argument as saying not to be a computer that isn't easily upgradeable. The reality is that most don't upgrade, so it's a mute issue.
People complained the iPhone battery isn't upgradeable. So what? I've had about 6 mobile phones in the past, all with removable batteries. I've never once replaced a battery. They worked fine without any issues.

not a case of upgradability .... I'm thinking functionality ... I have more than one chum who after only 8 or so months has found that battery life is measured in minutes rather than hours. and replacements are measured in �10s rather than �1s
batteries are (have, and always will be) the weakest link.
Perhaps you just treat yours better!
where ever possible I buy kit which uses proprietary parts (batteries, cables etc) rather than kit which is bonded to "own brand". As a traveller I also consider size, weight and desireability (A couple of friends have been mugged for their iPhones recently (no one seems to want my old nokia)
I won't even comment on electronics as a fashion statement.
However at the end of the day .... if you have the money and it gives you pleasure .... that's all that counts.
