so what do you thnk? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
I love the buttons being integrated into the wheel but I like the regular rounded corners around the outside. Maybe I have to see it in person though. More colors=good. |

i think your all gay! there's more discussion going on about Ceri's biceps than the new ipods! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
In the accesories they have these new in-ear headphones, they look good, better than the ones you get with the Ipod. Also the armband holder is silly. I like the green one. |

nice, but "only" 1000 songs |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
i'm poorr, i'll neverr get my hands on one of them i-pods, but if i play my carrds rright i may get my hands Ceri's biceps. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it just means you have to be selective about what you put on it, i'm sure your not going to listen to more than 1000 songs in one go. I'd rather have all my music on it too but I can't afford the more expensive ones. |
||||||||
|

|
|
with such a small price difference between the 4 and 10gb models, i would just spend a bit more and get 10 gb instead |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i know what you mean, i could get a 10GB ipod off ebay for about £40 extra |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
come to think of it, i'm fucking rrolling in it rright now. i could get an i-pod. i just don't think it's worrth it. i'd just drrop it, orr leave it on the bus. |
||||||||

i just got a 20 gig for xmas. i love it. i think ipods should have that classy look to them that they always have. not all these fruity ass colors. and 250 is a rip off! 4gig? what are you gonna do with that? i make all my mp3's @ 320kbps. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just got the 20 gig and was almost regreting not paying the extra 100 bucks for the 40 gig model. But I think this one will do me fine. It barely leaves my side. I love how you can store your contacts in it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hope this version hasn't got the same as the normal one... and yes, i prefer the design of the normal iPod and it is still too expensive. different colours is a good thing though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I wish they'd gone lower price and perhaps solidstate - Flash Cards - storage rather than yet another Hard Disc.... But yeah, its a cool design and I doubt Apple'll have any problems selling as many as they can make.... |
||||||||
|
|

its a lot cheaper to replace the batteries now if you check the thread that was originally in |

Q: Is the iPod's battery replaceable? A: Yes. Apple has an official battery replacement program for $99. You send your iPod in (any model iPod), and Apple will replace the battery for $99. AppleCare programs for iPod will also soon be available in Europe, and are expected soon in other markets. Q: Is the iPod's battery user-replaceable? A1: Yes and no. The iPod's case is not designed to be opened, so, in that respect, it's not what would generally be referred to as "user-replaceable". But, the case can be opened, and there are several third parties that offer replacement batteries for the iPod, such asiPodBattery.com (instructions, with pictures: original, non-"dockable" iPod, new, slim "dockable" iPod) and PDASmart, for as low as $49. Some will even do the replacement for you if you send it in. |

fuck that, my walkman still has anotherr 5 yearrs left in it. |
||||||||
|

|
|
I bought an mp3-playing discman. about 100 euro's. that'll do fine for me. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
a mate of mine has one. she can't select differrent MP3 trracks though. women. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
..what? in what way? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hell, i don't rreally know, i've only seen herr with it a few times, but she's having a rright old job selecting differrent trracks to play. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
only problem with that is it don't fit in your pocket. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
depends what kind of pocket you can certainly fit it into a hoodie pouch |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
orr to be cool clip it on yourr belt next to the mobile phone. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah.. but still, i think $49 or $99 is expensive! =) (iPods are for rich people! ^^) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it fits quite snugly. ha! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually i'm starting to think about getting one of these instead of an ipod, what do you think of this one? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yes, I saw that one too. nice. I have this one: not quite the looker like yours, but it does the trick and wasn't expensive. I love being able to fit 24 hours of music on one cd. do take heed on the ATRAC-system - the soundquality is pretty good, but the encoding-program is crap (you can't save ATRAC-tracks that you are making + a pretty unstable program, prone to sudden collapses = ARGH). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
can you use aac format tracks or does it have to be mp3? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
whats aac? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Because of its exceptional performance and quality, Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) is at the core of the MPEG-4, 3GPP, and 3GPP2 specifications and is the new audio codec of choice for Internet, wireless, and digital broadcast arenas. AAC provides audio encoding that compresses much more efficiently than older formats such as MP3, yet delivers quality rivaling that of uncompressed CD audio. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
naah, only normal audio, mp3 and ATRAC. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
did they make the battery life longer? My mp3 gives me ~7-8 hours on one AAA battery, and that still sucks, but at least I can bring a spare battery around if I need it. 3-4 hours just sucks ass |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its ok, i can burn the aac files onto disc as mp3 files. You dont have to use atrac do you? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no. it does mp3s perfectly well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the sony mp3 player is 55 hours on rechargable and 150 with AA, not bad |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
would mp3 be better quality than Compressing to ATRAC? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, 256k and up is better, I think. but ATRAC is pretty good and does take a lot less space. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my ipod can do aac/mp4. can also do aiff if you gotz a mac. aiff supposedly is the best. i havent tried doing a blindfold test with AAc files. i'll try today. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i'm gonna get the iPod mini, if i can sell my MD player |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

Expensive. Not enough storage space. Crap colours. "Apple engineers squeezed all the best features of iPod into a case weighing just 3.6 ounces" I'd rather have the 3.6 ounces in skunk thanks. The original's a classic. They've done good with the buttons under the wheel but that's it. These new ones stink of poor quality. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i didn't know you could buy replacement batteries from other companies... and knowing is half the battle they look pretty cool (except every colour but silver)..... but like other people say, it might be worth getting the bigger one for only like 100 dollars more, for many times the storage space would have to compare the size of both in person though |
