Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Apple iPod 4 GB mini M9435LL/A (Pink) OLD MODEL
Customer Review: Lots of little bugs, but still love it!
Summary: 3 Stars
I believe that Apple released the mini a little too soon - certainly before it was able to work out a lot of the bugs. However, I was dying to get one, and probably wouldn't have waited even if I was aware of the bugs!
I love the size! It fits into the tiniest of purses, and travels with me wherever I go...For me, the storage is more than sufficient, as I already have over 350 songs stored, and haven't even filled a third of my memory yet!
The bugs are a little disappointing, but are not serious...I have to "reboot" it at least once a week. We all have to reboot our computers from time to time, but I was surprised to have this problem with the mini only weeks after I got it. My songs "disappear" from time to time, but I'm able to get them back by rebooting 4-6 times.
If you can wait for the mini, I would hold out at least another year...by then I should hope that Apple can figure it out!
Customer Review: Fast turnaround on iPod Mini from Amazon...
Summary: 5 Stars
My girlfriend got me a 15gb 3G iPod last month... and I just returned the favor by getting her a Pink Mini for her birthday. While the extra storage of the "full sized" iPods is nice, there's something very elegant about the smallness and sturdiness of the mini.
When comparing the iPod/iPod Mini to mp3 players of other brands, the first thing you notice is the elegance/ease of use of the interface. It just feels like it's been well thought out-- it feels like quality.
Other mp3 players often have a feeling of not being finished--- you're constantly checking for firmware updates. A big pain.
BTW, I ordered the mini on Aug 25th. I was bummed out because the estimated delivery date was Oct 15th! It turned out the item was shipped on Aug 26th and arrived on the 27th, a mere 2 day turnaround (not the 1 1/2 month+ wait I had been dreading). Amazon's great!

I heard some reviews saying that it was "style over quantity". Duh, do you think we can't see? I'm 13 trying to save for an ipod mini. I have to make charts to try and convince mom and dad that it's a good way to waste my money. It's obvious that the 20GB is a better deal. But it IS style over amount of songs. It's a marketing technique. Apple has figured out a way to get MOST of us to buy something for more than it's worth. But, honestly, I think though it is expensive; the ipod mini has a lot of good features that most others on the market don't. They have made it so we can have access to a slightly less expensive alternative to the 20GB without going to a different company.though an improvement that they could make is to have a voice recorder to compete a little with the Dell DJ. All in all, a great toy for those with the money!
Thanx
Customer Review: iPod Mini in PINK!
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought one of these for my wife and she loves it. I find it terribly over-rated.I especially hate the software under Windows - it was probably the worst installation procedure I have ever seen - not allowing you to customize what or where it is installed. Its like they thought we all want to be Mac users and just automatically do everything for us even though we would like control!
It's also real buggy under Windows - always appearing to hang. And it is not ergonomic to update the iPod with new songs - it has to plugged in and out again constantly. It will not recognize new CDs unless you restart the software. My advise is to have the iPod unplugged all the time until you are ready to update the songs.
There is a long way Apple has to go with this before it is as good as some of the other brands designed for Windows.
Customer Review: Pretty good if you have a good computer...

First of all I'd like to say how very impressed I am with amazon.com! I ordered the super saver shipping and got my i-pod via UPS the next day instead of in 10 days like it said! Unfortunately, we don't have windows XP or ME on our crappy computer so I can't even use it until we get a new one. But I'm sure it'll work nicely.
I just have one reccomendation for amazon-I didn't want to enter my entire credit card number over the internet, so I just entered the last 5 digits as prompted, but never got a phone number to tell them the rest of it! It was very inaccessible and very hard to find, and it drove me crazy searching for it for hours. I'm sure it can be made easier-to-find.
Overall, very happy with my first order from amazon.com, and will definitely be ordering again!
