Looks nice,big storage,

Absolutely shocking screen, deliberately designed not to last well at all and if used with covers becomes bulky. The rate of upgraded products is deliberately used to rip off customers always leaving their product dated. Mobile phone screens seem to be a lot better than the dodgy plastic of the Apple ipod. If the ipod video has a screen of the same material I advise anyone not to buy this product as in 1-2 months they will be sorely dissapointed with the colours and viewing quality.

Easy to use, and the memory capacity is brilliant.

Rather big to discreetly carry about in your pocket.

One of the best value for money storage devices for all of your music collection.

I have found my ipod to be of excellent use. It has kept me company on those long dark nights travelling alone to and from work

I have found that the iskin I purchased still allows enough 'debris' to scratch the surface of my ipod. Maybe a stronger material is required in order to stop scratches or at least minimise them.

I am very pleased with my purchase in general. I would not hesitate to buy one as a gift for another person. Excellent

The design is awesome and the easo of use is unequalled.

The batteries do not last very long and have a tendancy to go drain even when the ipod hasn't been used. It be of more of an advantage if the unit came apart and you could get new batteries for it rathjer than having to buy a new unit.

A fantastic piece of kit and a gadget lovers must have.

Good solid quality, clear graphics and storage capacity

Poor headphone quality, replaced these within 2 weeks of use as they distorted badly

Easy and practical to use, and the size of the memory means loads of music can be stored on it. The good design means that it looks stylish and modern also.

Easily scratched, a case is needed for it as quickly as possible, and mine keeps freezing - possibly due to too much music.

An amazing product to have, without removable media such as cds or minidiscs it makes it easy and practical to use. everyone should have one.

Easy to use both - both the software and the iPod itself.

I wish you could shuffle playlists, rather than just all songs.

I love it! Thought for a year about buying one (couldn't justify it) and now I can't be without it. Use it mostly for listening to in the car.

good product if not a little expensive compared to other makes but drawn to this as they have market sewn up with additional product base

battery longeveity, headphones have room for improvement, perhaps they should team up with Sennheiser

Peter, Croydon

The Ipod 20gb looks smart, is easy to use, and is extremely powerful.

Battery life is a little short, and with Apple's warranty becoming unvalid if there is even a small scratch on the front of the ipod it is somewhat scary taking the ipod out in fear that it will get damaged.

Great product that is excellent for those who travel to work in the morning through rush hour.

stylish and sexy

battery is glued in, so when it comes to replaceing it, you have to send it back to Apple.

fantastic medium in which to store lots and lots of music. You can also plug it into your hi fi at home and play all your music

Storage capacity for its size. Ease of use. Idiot proof setup.

Lack of colour choice. Rotten ear plugs

Cheapest protective cover should be packaged with it particularly for screen protection.
