Surprisingly, all it took for my iPod to be restored was for it to be restarted (by holding select and menu). I was in total shock when my brother brought it back to life, since it…

This can happen A LOT when listening to enhanced podcasts and/or audio books. If you pause it in the middle of the file, leave it long enough it "sleeps" (but doesn't turn off), t…

Ok, simple question... Black or white?

I got black because I thought the color would be a better background for the display of photos and videos. And it's gorgeous.

I prefer black too, so I took a black marker and made my 3G iPod black!

go with white...black makes the ipod look like some sort of sony product. apple should rid the world of the grey click wheel and release an all white ipod again, least i think the…

Black, because my previous two iPods have been white. GO BLACK!

white.... it's a classic

white. two reasons. 1. tradition. when people see the white they know "iPod". i dont want any possibility of my sweet 5G iPod being confused at first glance with some piece of crap…

Black. I just picked up the last 30 GB Black in Manhattan Village mall, glad I made that choice. I would have gone for a black 60GB before the white myself. I got it b/c, like …

Choosing color should be a matter of personal preference. Purely speaking from objective point of view, white is better because (1) far greater number of iPod accessories are avail…

I got black because I've had several white iPods and because it seemed like it wouldn't stand out as much while watching video. No scratches so far, but I am pretty careful with it…

Every other electronic device in the world has appeared in black. The iPod broke the mold by traditionally staying white. Whenever anybody sees a white electronic device, people au…

I got classic white, baby.

I originally went to the local Apple store fully intent on getting a 60GB white model. It was only after comparing it side-by-side with a black model that I realized that black, fo…

The extra space on the click wheel on a white model stands out more than other iPods. I went with a black since I'll probably get a black Radtech case for it once the 5G cases come…

I think it's interesting -- and slightly amusing -- that a lot of people would choose a white iPod based on the fact that iPods are "supposed" to be white. The iPod has only exist…

black is way sexier....the black ipods are for sexy people

I was wondering about this too... There is all that complaining about the the new iPods scratching too much. I can see how the black iPods would "show" more scratches vs. white iP…

I've had my black 60GB for a week and no obvious scratches so far. I'm careful with it, but I do put it in the pocket of my shorts, etc.

Quote: I'll likely buy black for the great point that has been made that video is easier to watch on a black ipod. I can see how this is true - but is it that m…

Colors won't matter if you buy one of the many iPod tattoo skins or a case. I can't imagine the white color of the iPod hurting someone's eyes that much.... I can imagine that wat…
