This was my first portable video playing device and I was amazed by it. Other than that this product didn't bring anything new to the market. The colored screen was nice but existed on previous models and non-beveled edges were nice. But there was no real reason to ever upgrade to this iPod. By...

This is the pinnacle of the classic iPod. I have the 160GB version, and it holds everything I need and then some. The screen is sharp and crisp, the sound never fails to please, and I have Peggle, which helps pass endless amounts of time. Unlike some complainers, I've never had a problem...

This was my 3rd hard drive iPod and it's still in use. My kids use it as a video player when we travel and they love it. Heck, my wife and I still use it to playback ripped DVDs on our TV. On our most recent family trip, however, the battery gave out. We were getting about 20 minutes of...
