It does that everyone once in awhile when charging on my PB and it's disconnected. I'm kaypoh so I have to keep checking if it's charged.

I don't think the iTalk plays as well with the 4G as it does with the 3G. I learned this after buying an unpowered (noise cancelling) mic for mine. It didn't work, waste of money…

iTMS is by far the most popular online music distributor, and the iPod is by far the most popular, cool PMP. If those two facts don't sway your friend, he's probably too far gone t…

to be blunt, if he doesn't just *see* the difference, he may be doomed. But... That said, I'd offer/challenge him to go to a store where both iPods and the competitors are sold …

Nothing objective, huh? Bummer. I agree, try them and we're done. But he lives a distance away...

Did you ask him what he doesn't like about iTunes? Is the only thing the "exclusivity"(SP)? Does he use a Mac or PC? If he uses a Mac you can tell him the other's don't work as…

A quick google found a few on iTunes but fewer on the ipod. Any others would be appreciated. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1759,1634140,00.asp http://www.mp3.com/tech/services…

I've owned 2 creative mp3 players (A jukebox 3 and a creative zen) and both were made with such crap build quality. Creative releases new mp3 players every 6 or 8 months, but does…

There are some alternatives to iTunes for Windows and Linux users. Might want to try looking here. I could see the cost issue, an iPod is expensive. I'm not sure other players l…

We lost one guys. Here's a recent eMail exchange- Thanks all the same. Paul I got a Creative Nomad Zen with 60 Gig hard disk for $265 inclusive of everything. I really do…

Get her pink mini, and she will love you long time.

I've got a 1gb shuffle and my wife has a mini. I actually have more music than her, but I don't want to carry around a full size or even a mini when I'm walking around downtown du…

Speaking as a girly, I ordered myself a shuffle weeks ago (still eagerly awaiting it from the UK store, it tells me it will ship next week HUZZAH!), but to be quite honest if I had…

I just got the shuffle, and you really can't go wrong with either. The shuffle is small, would probably fit better in my wife's purse, and will hold 99% of what she would listen t…

I was torn apart over the same Mini Or Shuffle issue for a long time and at the end got a Shuffle ( 1 GB) , but had to return it within two days because some of my MP3 songs were …

I think in the manual it tells you what to do to reset the iPod to English. These directions can be performed on the iPod itself so it shouldn't be platform specific. It says thi…
