Apple iPod Nano
 
I'm proud to say that I bought my first Apple product yesterday...an iPod Nano (5th Generation).
So far, I'm really impressed with the features, absolutely amazing.
And the memory capabilities, WOW. I have to say, the size is bloody EPIC (BASH BOOM WALLOP)!
I have got more than double what would have filled my previous MP3 player on the iPod, and it literally hasn't even taken up 1% of the iPod's memory.
I must say, this is a big converter for me to switch over to Apple, I know I'll never be able to convince my mum to switch over from Microsoft, but when I get my own computer, it'll be a mac ;).

Nano's do not have a 5th Generation Lol

Ben Dawson January 23, 2008 6:14 AM

Well, they do in my head at least (Doctor 5 and all, there are 5 week days, keeping up the 5's...fifth generation) ;).

Danny Stewart January 23, 2008 11:22 AM

Congratulations, Ben! Welcome to the wonderful world of Apple!

Ben Dawson January 23, 2008 1:59 PM

Crunchy, juicey and full of flavour.

I discovered I can get one for free with my MBP apparently.

I'll probably just sell it.

Why? They're great.

THE best portable music player, iPods seriously are the best, no question, no argument.

Chris Britton January 24, 2008 1:34 PM

iPods are like the Amy Lee of music players. beautiful to look at, wonderful to listen too, turns heads when people see them and does not do anything outrageous. Stunning.

Ben Dawson January 24, 2008 2:43 PM

EXACTLY, well put mate.

Chris Britton January 24, 2008 3:06 PM

Both of them are also quite modest too but know how to get your attention.

I don't usually use a portable music player anyway.

Nor did I until I got an iPod. Now I can't put it down.

Ben Dawson January 25, 2008 4:02 PM

Yeah, same here. If I can, I'll do everything in household life listening to mine (god I sound domestic).

I'd prefer to be able to hear it if I'm about to be hit by a car, y'know?

QFT.
That and listening to music while driving a car is like having somebody jabbering next to you. It's distracting and may wind up with your car lodged in a destroyed oil truck and your head and your legs being miles apart.

Boo hoo. Pause it while crossing the street. That's hardly a reason not to own one at all.

Chris Britton January 26, 2008 7:19 AM

The amount of people with iTunes at Uni is astounding, literally hundreds of playlists to link too :D

Superkid11 January 26, 2008 12:45 PM

My mom doesn't leave the house with her iPod yet she's addicted to it. :P So there may be something in owning one anyway.

Yes it is. I prefer to be aware of what's going on.

When I'm at home I use my computer to play music over a 5.1 Surround System and it's great :)

Well, I prefer to tune out my surroundings, especially when on the bus or places where I'm doing little for prolonged periods and don't wish to interact with the world around me.

That's nice. I prefer to be able to walk around the house and listen to loud music without disturbing others.

Superkid11 January 26, 2008 10:02 PM

Well yeah that works when on a bus or something but not when out walking around.

I mean, if somebody were around the corner and were about to jump out and stab you with a srynge full of LSD you wouldn't have a bit of warning.

I disagree. I think it works under both sets of circumstances.

I'll take my chances.

Superkid11 January 26, 2008 10:43 PM

Well, then again, I AM a person who's been homeschooled since 2nd grade so that may be the reason I seem to think the world outside my room is rediculously dangerous. :P

That might be it. Oh, and while you're at it, you should yell at your teacher for not teaching you how to spell "ridiculous." :P

Superkid11 January 27, 2008 1:09 AM

Yeah spelling's never been my strong point. :<

My mum was not sure about getting me an iPod a couple of years ago. 2 years on and she now has an iPhone XD She became seriously addicted.
