Apple iPod U2 Special Edition 20 GB

Advantages Something different, sound quality
Disadvantages battery life

...if you want something different, something that stands out from others, buy this. it is like no other ipod. first, the colour. the u2 ipod has a main black gloss colour, with a brilliant red click wheel standing out. secondly on the back there are signitures of each U2 band member. this is what makes it special. in todays society everyone either has an ipod or knows someone who does. so when white ipods are common, what can you get to stand out from the crowd? a U2 one, you are sure to be different when you have one of these babies!! the black and red are the perfect match, the red clickwheel stands out most of all.

Advantages It's beautiful!
Disadvantages Easy to scratch chrome back

...speakers so that you can listen indoors. Space advantages: great! I am now planning to get rid of my large old black hi-fi unit (do they get called that any more???!) Memory size: 20G - so huge!!! 5000 songs worth! However, you really need to make up your favourite playlists on your I:Tunes - otherwise trying to scroll through the albums or song titles could take forever! Ease of use: great! Just scroll through the click-wheel.

With the black and the red it looks absolutely stunning. This iPods seem to last for ages however because of its colour it does scratch quite easily but this does not do anything to the actual iPod it is just cosmetic and you can only see the scratches if you hold them in a special angle to the light. It has all of the features of any other iPod. This is the photo version so do not be fooled into thinking it is. However the iPod still holds around 5000 songs or 20000 photos. It has a battery life of around 15 hours depending on what you do with it. The iPod comes with many extra features such as an alarm clock, clock, a place ofr you to store contact details...
