Summary: instruction manual and battery charge?
Comment: I want to say that my iPod came to me perfectly and perhaps it did, except the instruction manual I received was in French (and I can't read French yet), so I haven't made time to find out how I can find out how to use the darn thing. I figured out some of it on my own but I'm still a little lost. At first I thought the battery wasn't holding a long charge, but now I think it may be ok. But since I have been unable to really use it since I don't know how as yet, I don't know for sure... I would rate it high if those two concerns were out of my mind. Everything else about it looks and feels like it's probably a good product and company ???

Summary: spinning hard drive in pocket....not a great idea
Comment: Great when it works. The hard drives are not great though and once it starts to freeze sell it quick or plan in getting another. Repairing it will cost as much as buying a new one. If you have a service plan turn it in near the end of your plan for sure. I have owned three models and cared for them well. Only one lasted more than a year before choking and dying. It was always the hard drive! I am ready for flash memory in these things the spinning hard drive models are crap -- fundamentally a bad idea, but BEST OPTION for porting large files of data between work and home.

I returned ours that kept freezing to bestbuy before warranty was up and they kept it until two days before the warranty was over (three weeks) and didn't do anything. They just put a sticker on it and said it was fine. The thing started in the store but died two days later [...] Never again with them. Also wait until you can get an ipod with a solid state drive--forget the spinning drive thing.

Summary: Keep this in a glass case, I suppose
Comment: Well, this was a very nice little MP3 plater until the other day when it fell about a foot onto a somewhat hard surface, and COMPLETELY BROKE. It didn't fall apart or anything, but it no longer plays any music - it just makes a grinding/clicking noise and freezes when you want it to play a song. And of course, because this is an Apple product, it's completely sealed in its slick little casing, so I can't take it apart to see if I can fix it. If I didn't already have the also overpriced iPod docking station, I wouldn't hesitate to replace it with a completely different brand of MP3 player.

Summary: Dont buy refurbished electronics
Comment: I had the ipod for two weeks before it started malfunctioning. I sent it in for repairs (i had to pay shipping). I wish I bought a CD player instead.

Summary: Best Buy
Comment: I bought a 20gb IPod about a month ago, I learned the controls quickly(wasn't that hard at all) and started loading songs the very same day. I really enjoy the product. An unexpected plus is if the ear buds cord comes out, the IPod will go on pause so you can plug it back in and be right where it left off. I'm up to about 600 songs and thats hardly half of the storage capacity of the 20gb. The Ipod fits right into my back pocket, still searching for a good Ipod holder though.
