I started out with a 20GB iPod and soon found out that the drive wasn't big enough to hold all my music. My progression of iPods went from 20-, 30-, 40- and now it's a 60GB iPod p…

I just ordered a 60 GB iPod photo. I wanted the largest beast there is and since it's rather cheap to go from 30 GB to 60 GB it was a no-brainer.

Although I haven't recieved mine yet, I will be getting a new green 4GB mini on Mar, 21 The anticipation is killin me. I've been iPodless since I sold my original 10GB (rev b) mod…

iPod Mini, 1G. Mainly because it was cheaper than the others, and I loved the fact that I could have a colour. I thought 4gb would be enough, but I have run out. It seems, however,…

iPod mini 6 GB. The iPod is physically too big. I had a 15 GB, but wanted something smaller. The physical size of the shuffle is nice, but I find the lack of the screen quite irr…

I went with the Shuffle primarly because I'll be using it at the gym and while I work outside. The size difference greatly outweighed the smaller capacity and lack of screen I ex…

I just received my 6GB iPod Mini (silver) yesterday. With academic pricing ($229) it just seemed like the best deal for me. For me, 6GB was big enough and I liked the size of the M…

I actually just bought a new 4gig 2G mini and sold my 40 gig 3G on ebay that I'd had for a year and a half. I did this because I originally wanted the biggest one so I could have a…

I've had a 30Gig iPod since they came out which I used to store my entire CD collection. Today I bought a 1Gig Shuffle because I like the size, small.

wow, thanks for your responses...i find it interesting. Is the mini really that bad in terms of moving around? Here is what I would use an mp3 player for if I got one.. Basicall…

I originally had the 1gb Shuffle, but immediately returned it once the new minis came out. I could almost deal with the lack of an LCD, but going from one song to the next was just…

I got the first-generation 4GB iPod mini last week at my local CompUSA for $179. I preferred this one because it came with a FireWire cable and my PowerBook only has USB 1.1. I a…

3G 15 gig I bought this summer. It was discounted at 250 dollars since it was an old generation. I am very happy with it. You can get iPod batteries for about 25 dollars if you are…
