To get music on it is the biggest pain the neck. It's ssoooooo much easier to just go by the CD and carry a radio with you. This item is NOT user friendly by any means. I don't understand why everyone likes these things.uuuuggg
The reason for the four stars is that is can freeze up on you (which can be fixed easy) and because the new iPod Nanos have much more storage and can play video now unlike this iPod. It has many features that can be helpful depending on how you like your iPod Nano. I bought my iPod Nano a couple years ago and it has held up well. This iPod Nano is good. Its portable and easy to carry around. Another reason for the four stars is I bought mine for $150 and now the 8GB iPod Nano is for the same price as when I bought mine. It plays up to 500 songs and holds thousands of photos. If you don't mine not having the video feature on an iPod, then this is right for you.
Product was received on time and in condition that was advertised, pleased with the purchase and would purchase from retailer in the future. ipod nano works like new, all extra features were included with ipod.
I holds plenty of music for even long, long runs or bike rides. So these are not likely to last forever - what does. Of course 2GB isn't the 80GB or 120GB you can get in other iPod models, and I've never tried using for video, but this iPod is lightweight and rides nicely on my arm in an iPod holder. Thus it loses one star.At any rate, I've had a 5-star experience with my iPod.You should be advised, however, that the earbuds are not at all likely to last as long as the iPod itself. It's is easy to use, and is an all around joy to have around.Oh sure it will occasionally lock up, what piece of hardware doesn't()., but it is easy to reset and it resumes its normal functioning right away.On another note, my daughter has the same kind of iPod as mine, but she's had hers a little longer. I need to tell you that her iPod has lost sound generation to one of the earbuds - it's not an earbud problem, it's an iPod problem (we tested it with multiple ear phones). I have had my iPod nano (Silver 2nd generation) for 2 years now, and it's still ticking right along.
This iPod has got to be the perfect exercise-partner. I use my iPod mainly for listening to music while exercising (running - on a treadmill during crummy weather and outdoors when it's nice). I've been using it lately to listen to an audio-book, and it does that well, too. I'm now on my 2nd pair of earbuds.For the positive reasons listed above, this model is worth a solid 4-stars.Thanks Apple.
I'm getting rid of it and buying one of the cheapos. Not anymore.It has such a hard time when it's time to download. I purchased it new. At least if that "breaks" I'm only out $20-$30, not $100. It's a pain.
I have to constantly reset it (you do this by pushing the menu and the middle circle at the same time, for about 10 seconds) Even after resetting it, it still doesn't work. I only download and listen to audio books on my ipod. I should have read the reviews for this before I bought it. The first book download worked perfectly. This is trash.
It CONSTANTLY freezes up. Save your money.
