Manufacturer's product description
Apple presents iPod - the first MP3 player to pack a countless number of songs and 10 hours of battery life into a stunning package you can literally take everywhere. It's your entire music collection. With no moving parts, the iPod's touch-sensitive scroll wheel is less vulnerable to dust, dirt or sand and more durable. The touch-sensitive scroll wheel is designed to retain its crisp feel throughout the lifespan of your iPod. There's even a clicker that makes a tiny clicking sound when the scroll wheel is moving. Small though it is, the iPod packs a lot of storage. The number of songs it holds depends on the compression rate you choose. At a 160Kbps compression rate (the default setting for encoding MP3s in iTunes), 5GB equals approximately 1, 000 songs, or about 100 CDs. That's how big it is on the inside. And with that much space, you might also find yourself storing documents, files and applications on your iPod in FireWire disk mode. iPod's rechargeable lithium polymer battery gives you 10 hours of continuous playback. In a hurry to get it recharged? Fast-charge the battery to 80% of capacity in an hour, and get it fully recharged in three hours. With an industry-leading 20 minutes of skip protection, iPod keeps playing without missing a beat. iPod has a 32MB solid-state memory cache, meaning that it has no mechanical or moving parts. Skip protection works by continually preloading up to 20 minutes of music into the cache, so your iPod is not affected by sudden movements. The 10GB and 20GB iPod models include a clip-on wired remote control that lets you fast-forward or rewind a track, play, pause and adjust volume using just one hand. They also include a designer carrying case with belt clip that protects your iPod from the elements and lets you clip it to your belt, backpack or purse.

...What would I do without my iPOD??? I don't know how I lived without it...At first I was worried that my 200 GBP purchase would be a phase, but after a few months I still love it. I was never really that into music and could never be bothered to change my CDs in my car but now that I have my iPOD going through my car stereo it is fantastic. I don't know how I am going to fill the 20GB as I ma only on 4 GB at the moment and already there are 1500 songs on it - 3 days worth of constant music(once it is on shuffle). It is easy to use with the clickwheel and with iTunes it is so easy to load your CDs onto it. There are all the features you need - and I haven't tried most of them yet but you can add contacts and appointments and addresses etc. The drawback (besides the price) is that it scratches easily (so I bought a skin which is fine) also...

...Just two weeks ago I bought this cool new AppleiPod20GB MP3 player for my dad. He is a mechanic but he is always in the field or driving around in his company provided van. He needed an easy way to listen to his favorite music without having to switch CD's or tapes. I also bought him my favorite iTrip FM transmitter so there is no need to plug in anything. I recommended the iPod to him because I have had one of my own for more than two years now that he has used on some occasions as well. I bought this from Costco Wholesale for $239.99 plus tax; I think this was a good deal.
DESIGN & CONTROLS :
This iPod is designed like all other regular (not mini and not nano) sized MP3 players. It is exactly the same size as my older 15GB unit that I have owned for more than two years but I think it is a tiny bit heavier (probably because...

...The Apple Ipod 20GB Model Code: M9282LL/A
A symbol of youth, wealth, fashion and of course, music - the AppleI-Pod, everyone, let's give it a round of applause!
The Clickwheel
So, with the arrival of the Generation 4 I-Pod late in 2004, the I-Pod is now sleeker, and the designers have omitted the seperate buttons and have now integrated them into one of the most fantastic control units available on any domestic-use music appliances - The CLICKWHEEL, which also features on the I-pod mini.
Apple calls the clickwheel the "envy of the industry" - and it's clear to see why. There surely cannot be a better way to navigate - no, wait, navigate is too weak a word - COMMAND (that's better) your music collection. Simple rotate your finger around the wheel, and the menu selection bar moves in unison, BUT, rather than click a seperate...
