+ Good screen clarity, like the cover flow and the shake to advance tracks. Like all the colour options, was hard to decide which one to plummet for!

- Found it a little confusing starting up as no detailed instructions in pack. Had to search itunes help a couple of times. Have just worked out how to get the album cover art on but even still its not working as I thought it should.

- Personally i think that there is nothing bad about the apple ipod 8gb but i would mention about the battery life as i have to keep charging it up regularly.

- Lack of instructions for middleaged technophobics.
Lack of ability to contain on the person without buying further apple goodies.
Charging was an initial issue, (had to ring relatives, possible technophobia again!) without further and easier docking station purchase.
Identability. - The white earphones identify it as attached to an ipod, which worry's me, possibly more than my children. Have seen alternative coloured earphones apparently suitable for ipods, not sure of their suitability or clarity.

+ Easy to use, slim

- most iPod accessories are not compatible for recharging with this product yet. It has been quite frustrating trying to find chargers and dockingstations that will charge.

+ A great product!, gone are the days where we had a mountain of c.ds next to a bulky stereo! the range of other features are good aswell. We have bought THREE i-pods so far.I think the sound quality is excellent, cant wait to fill the i-pod up with my favourite songs.I am old enough to remember the first portable TAPE CASSETTE walkman so this is absolutely fantastic. Well worth buying.

- This isnt anything bad about the product at all, but as first time users of this type of technology, we have found it difficult to download songs (this is due entirely to us) we are in the process of asking our 13 year old niece to come and work it out for us (I know, its embarrassing!) we are sure we will get the hang of it. I recommend people in same position to get somebody who knows to show you, apparantly its really easy when you know how.

Manufacturer's Description

Rockalicious. Colour isn’t the only brilliant new iPod nano feature.

Colour isn’t the only brilliant new iPod nano feature.

A musical Genius.
Say you’re listening to a song you really like and want to hear other tracks that go great with it. The Genius feature finds the songs in your music library that go great together and makes a Genius playlist for you. It’s like having your own highly intelligent, personal DJ.

Rock and roll over.
Tilt or turn iPod nano on its side, and you’ll listen, watch and play in new ways. You can flip through your album art with Cover Flow. Or, vertically speaking, see more albums and artists on the screen at one time.

Let the games begin.
Now you can get in on games made especially for iPod nano and the accelerometer. They respond to the way you move, so they’re immersive, addictive and a blast. iPod nano comes with Maze, which lets you work your way through vast mazes by tilting and moving. You can find even more games on the iTunes Store.

Even your photos rock.
Pull hundreds of photos from your pocket and share them wherever you go. Hold iPod nano upright and see your photos in portrait view. Turn it on its side to see them in landscape. Your photos look beautiful in their proper aspect ratio on the vibrant, 320-by-240-resolution display.

Find your music faster.
It’s even easier to find the song you want to hear. Now you can view your album art in Cover Flow. Or just press and hold the Centre button to browse by album or artist. When you find the right song, press the Center button to add it to your on-the-go playlist.

Shake your groove thing.
Sometimes, we could all use a little unpredictability. And now you can shake to shuffle your music. Just give iPod nano a shake and it shuffles to a different song in your music library. You’ll always be surprised by what you’ll hear.

World’s biggest small screen.
Watching movies, TV shows and videos is big fun on iPod nano. And the high-resolution picture looks crisp and vivid on the 2-inch widescreen display. So you can always have a little video with you.
