   I recently purchased this 80GB iPod to replace my old, black-and-white Click Wheel. The leap between the two versions is unbelievable. When I compare the two, I realize how quickly the iPod has improved in just a few short years. Instead of lowering the price (although it has come down a little since I bought mine), Apple instead has focused on improving the technology and storage capacity -- and it shows. First, the design. The newest iPod Classic no longer comes in white, and instead buyers must choose between silver and black. At first I was disappointed since I loved the white, glossy exterior, but the brushed silver is both reminiscent of the old and much classier looking. The metallic case has a somewhat sharper edge than the Classic did even a year ago, but it doesn't pick up fingerprints on the front as quickly. The chrome back continues to be a fingerprint magnet, however. The click wheel remains the same. The capacity of the 80 GB is amazing. Ten years ago, who would have thought it possible to carry around two weeks straight of music and still barely make a dent in the storage? Of course, videos, movies, photos,and television shows take more space than audio files, so the 80 GB hard disk is much welcomed. For comparison, see the Apple iPod touch 16 GB or the iPhone, both with storage limitations that will frustrate those who like to carry their entire music libraries and videos with them. The Classic is a must for those individuals. The software seems more stable than it did even less than a year ago, as my daughter's Classic (the last of the white models) hangs much more frequently than mine. In fact, after a couple months of steady use, I have yet to reset mine. I advise that owners update iTunes and their iPod software whenever a new version is available to maintain compatibility. The Cover Flow feature is more interesting than useful, especially if you have older CD ripped to iTunes that predate the cover feature. I really like the ability to see the CD cover art while the music is playing, something the black-and-white model couldn't do. Extras include a clock, alarm, calendar, games (pre-loaded with three simple ones), and a stopwatch. You may elect to download files to your iPod for reading. These extras, while nice, are hardly the reason to buy one of these. IPods are for music, plain and simple. Even the addition of videos doesn't trump the original use, though the sound is good enough that sometimes I forget I'm watching such a tiny screen. For those who have never used an iPod: the Classic allows you to sort your music by artist, albums, podcast, audiobooks, genres, composers. You may listen to individual songs or entire albums. You can create playlists of your favorite songs, or you can shuffle to play the songs randomly, with weight on those you've rated yourself. All this information is accessed almost instantly, with a spin and a click. Until you've actually used an iPod, you won't have an idea how glorious the technology is. I've never known anyone to go back to a regular MP3 player after owning an iPod, except, of course, if they cannot afford a replacement. You manage and sync your music directly through iTunes on your computer. The biggest downsides of the iPod are cost and the use of a hard drive, a much more fragile storage method than a chip. Of course, with the drive, you get that huge storage capability and quick access, so the trade-off is well worth it. Some also cite Apple's control of the market through the proprietary format of iTunes, since you must use iTunes to use an iPod. While this may have been a problem before the overwhelming popularity of the iPod, just about every song you'd like can be found there. You really don't need another program to access the music you want. I highly recommend this newest version of the iPod. If you have been thinking about upgrading from an older model, now is the time to do it.

   When I ordered the 80 gig iPod for my teenage son, I had no idea how many wonderful features it had. I have enjoyed seeing his excitement over finding all the neat things it will do. We love the pictures of the albums, being able to "flip over" the picture and see the list of songs on the "back," and being able to watch videos on the iPod. When I ordered it, I just knew it had a lot of memory, so it would hold lots of songs. I did not know how great the video features would be. We are thrilled with this purchase.
