I really Like It
This is my first IPOD, though not my first MP3 player.

My summary of the features:

Lighweight and slim, clear picture that changes orientation based on how you hold it, sound quality is really good,easy to charge (though only comes with USB charger),earphones are average (I chose to use SkullCandy earbuds as they fit better and have great shound quality),Itunes interface is easy to use, does not have radio feature (though not a big deal), love the vibrant shade of purple and it seems to be at least a little scratch resistant.

I did find that scrolling down lists can be a little challenging at times and that gets a little frustrating. That is my most significant issue with this unit. This is a feature that's used often.

IPODs appear to be much more versitile and compatible than most other MP3 players. With this, I was not disappointed. I did find that there are a few sites libary sites for audiobooks that are not IPOD compatible, which is a little frustrating since I listen to audiobooks frequently.

Overall very happy with the purchase and would reccomend this product. By far, it's better than any of the other MP3 players that I own.

EXCELLENT!! boredom killer!
I got my new (4th Generation, 16gb purple) Ipod Nano yesterday and I absolutely love it! I normally take a while to warm up to new gadgets, learning the new features etc, but this one is so fun and easy to use.

I previously had an i-River (that I loved, was a great MP3) and a small 2gb shuffle that I found really buggy & gave up on. This nano is great, everyone who sees mine can't resist touching it as it is so slim and sexy, and then they start playing with it and don't want to give it back after discovering features like the great rotating screens, coverflow (where you can scroll through the album covers), the great click / spin wheel, the games, and the "shake" feature to change tracks is cute, although you have to be pretty firm so it doesn't change while jogging etc.

It is quick and easy to synchronise through itunes which is great, and while the cost is mostly for the cute small design (ie for $50 more you can get 10times the memory, but in the bulkier sized ipod), I have found that 16gb is HUGE. I have put around 300 songs on so far, two full-length movies, about 40 photos, 6 extra games, and a dozen or so TV shows and podcasts and I have barely made a dint in the memory. So unless you are a DJ or someone who plans on putting hundreds of movies on there, I'd suggest 8gb or 16gb will be more than you'll need.

Graphics and ease of use on this Nano is brilliant, if you are a bit of a late-starter into iPods, this is a great one to get started on. Having said that, I found the manual (online) to not be much use at all. Fortunately a bit of a play around solved most of my questions, but Apple would do well to invest a bit more time into their product user guides.

The battery life isn't great, if just listening to music you will comfortably get 4+ hours out of a full charge, but as soon as you start playing with your Nano, - particularly games - the battery drains fairly fast. The one must-get accessory in my opinion is a wall / car charger. It only comes with headphones and a data cable, so if you are likely to want to charge your ipod away from a PC, an extra type of charger is a must.

If you have any doubts about this product, I can completely recommend just biting the bullet and getting it - you will fall inlove with all the features, some great thought has gone into this little device!

Now if you'll excuse me, I have some games i can't wait to try out on my new Nano Toy! (Warning - iPod Nano's are ADDICTIVE!) =o)

I-POD HEAVEN? WELL MAYBE JUST A VOYAGE OF DISCOVERY
For someone who has never used an I-Pod before and had no intention of going past the technology of a CD, it's introduction hit me like a dawning of a new time.

My son of 35 decided it was time for his father to be introduced to one of the better things in todays life. The "nano" without doubt did not let itself down, not ever.

From the moment of turn on, to discovering all it's funtions, I can only say I was happy beyond words.

After mastering the display and loading a complete libary of sound and vision onto it, the thing still begged for more. "Where does it all go, one asks"

The sound and pictures quality is first class, as for "nano" he has found a new home in my shirt pocket, forever ready to deliver.

Five Stars, no complaints from this happy customer, worth every dollar and more. As for the group of friends who had the same view as me,"nothing after a CD thank you" they now treat me as a tech outcast, "Hey, what do they know"
