Manufacturers : Apple Computer Product description Includes: earbud headphones, USB cable, dock adapter, & iTunes for Mac and Windows. Apple 4GB iPod nano - Come one, come all and witness the incredible shrinking iPod. With the nano, Apple introduces the latest member of the highly successful iPod family of digital audio players. The nano is aptly named since it's a fraction of the size of it's larger iPod cousins. It has the width of a pencil and comes in at a feather-light 1.5 ounces. For Apple's next trick, they've taken this new diminutive iPod and added all of the features of a regular iPod. You get a bright full color display, Apple's famous click wheel, and up to 14 hours of battery life. With that said, take a peek behind the curtain and be amazed at the rest of what the iPod nano has to offer.

Customer Reviews Brilliant, Hardy and Stylish...I cannot say enough!  -- 2010-09-02When I got this iPod originally the only contact I'd had with an iPod before was an occasional use of an iPod Classic. And to say, having had it for about 5 years (I think) I rarely go anywhere without it. Despite the lack of choice colour-wise, the nano doesn't suffer because the white and chrome look suits and gives an easy choice of headphones (as opposed, for example, to people who own bright pink iPods, and have to have white headphones r pay more). It's stylish and light. It's portable and literally fits in your pocket (or for us women, in bras, or exceptionally tight jeans - though I wouldn't advise leaving it unprotected in your jeans pocket). I would however reccommend you buy a clip and carry case for it, that not only protects it more but allows those of us who prefer to change music often, to clip it to the outside of our clothes. If you get good, you can even choose music without looking this way! Now, I can't vouch for how it would have lasted without this case, BUT mine has survived multiple drops off of bunkbeds and onto concrete floors with minimal scratching and as of yet, no permanant damage, so I'd suggest it's hardy. The battery life is astonishing - it outlasts my phone most times and I listen to music pretty much non stop. If you don't change music too often, mine can last over a week playing music for the best part of the day. Even when it says it's pretty much out of battery it can last for over half an hour longer, even with its colour screen The sound quality really depends on the headphones you buy (I've tried loads) but it can reach a very loud volume and also can be heard when quiet too. Beautiful sounds whether it's playing Nickelback and Linkin Park, or Enya and Debussy - I promise.... after all, I know. Add this to the fact you can change what's on your main menu and edit playlists when on iTunes, and I'd say it's one of the easiest iPods to use (and nobody in my house owns the same one)- it beats later generation nanos, minis, and the only real contender is the classic because it holds more music - which is the one downfall of the original Nano; 4GB is just NOT enough for me and the music lovers! In fact I am so attached to this iPod that, now it's full, I'm trying to buy a second iPod Nano 1st Gen so I can fill that up with the rest of my music. I'd rather have two 4GB 1st Gen Nanos than 1 larger and less amazing iPod at my disposal - after all, sometimes, for quality, you make sacrifices...not that owning two of these beauties is a sacrifice! Beautiful piece of work, but not recommended for audio books!  -- 2008-03-11I bought this item for its great looks, form factor and the Apple interface, but I've come to regret this choice as I primarily listen to audio books with this device. My primary issues with using this device for audio books are: -1- Doesn't support DRM-protected Windows Media Audio (WMA) files!! That precludes me from downloading Overdrive books from my local library. Most devices at this price point support this feature and I wish Apple would too. -2- I loose my bookmark whenever the unit is recharged (really inconvenient for books!!). -3- I only get ~5 hrs of runtime between charges. Also, the 'click-shift' mechanism for selecting files is hard to work with, and there have been a few technical glitches whereby all content on the iPod spuriously vanished. iPod  -- 2007-12-21Great product! It was exactly how it was described and I had no problems with the transaction at all. I bought this as a gift and he was very happy with it. Love my nano! -- 2007-12-11I received my 4gb pink nano as a Christmas present last year and so far so GREAT!!! I have no complaints at all. My nano has withstood two teenage sons taking it from room to room, one 12 yr old daughter who goes horse riding listening to it and me, who takes it along to work and endures the bus ride home. Its always had a cover on it which I insist or they dont borrow it and for the longest time I kept the covering on the screen and dial but after 6 months my son removed them and still NO scratches and this nano is in pockets, purses, backpacks and sometimes just lying around, its been dropped I hate to say and still working like a charm. we love this little gadget of technology and this Christmas my 3 kids are getting their own so maybe mom can have hers back!! I would recommend it!!!! PERFECT CUSTOMER SERVICE -- 2007-06-08The timing was great! The package was sealed, brand new like stated it would be. I received my Ipod within days! Thank you so much! I love it! |
