Customer Review: How did I live without it?
Summary: 5 Stars
I had my doubts about the Mini iPod. I decided that carrying around heavy, bulky CD cases were out of the question. After I'd invested in a Sony MD player I became painfully aware of the discs I had to carry around... not to mention having to remember which songs were on what disc. I had to find an easier way to carry my music around.
So I bought my iPod today... and I don't know how I ever lived without it. Everything is so organized and easy to use. I have 1500 songs at my fingertips 24 hours a day.
The only downside: It doesn't come with a charger... but it charges when hooked up to the computer by the USB cable.
Other than that it's great! It's small and sturdy... and very lightweight. They come in adorable colors and have very customizable features.
Customer Review: iPOD IS AND iFRAUD!
Summary: 1 Stars
I received an ipod for Christmas and still cannot get it to work with my Windows XP. I have spoken to the customer service support people over the phone 5 times and they cannot help me. When I went to my local Apple store at Stoneridge Mall in Pleasanton, California the "Geniuses" at the Genius Bar were far from being a Genius. Especially when they said, "We had a lady come in here the other day and we just couldn't get the thing to work on her Windows laptop. Oh well." They refused to take give me my money back even though they admitted that my computer just might not be able to support the ipod.
You call that customer service? I have learned more on the Amazon reviews of ipods about how to get this thing to work than from the *#@%ing Geniuses at Apple. THIS IPOD IS AN IFRAUD!
Customer Review: Battery Life
Summary: 3 Stars
This is a nice product but the frenzy over it is really uncalled for. The price, at $250, is really expensive. I guess if you keep supplies artificially low, have a good marketing dept, and send free samples to all those monkeys at those tech websites to create a "buzz", then you can justify this price. Anyhow, I shouldn't even complain as I got this free. My girlfriend won it at a conference. There are a few things that you should consider before getting this puppy. The battery life is NOT as advertised. My Ipod has never lasted more than 5 hours. The second thing is that iTune is hard to use. It is a bit counter intuitive compared to other similar programs out there. There are better programs out there that you can download.
Save your money. Don't be a sheep.
Customer Review: P.O.S.
Summary: 1 Stars
I know that everyone else seems to love this, so perhaps my complaint is more about Apple in general. My Ipod Mini (pink)is a lemon. The battery has never worked properly. It takes longer to charge than to discharge, and my current playing time per charge (no changing settings, not backlighting, nothing but hitting play and waiting till the battery dies) is about 2 hours. Apple will gladly sell me a new ($70) battery, but other than that tough. It is apparently my fault thet they're selling shoddy products. I'm not saying don't buy it. There aren't realistically any better choices out there than the Ipod, but buy it when you have a week to sit around and evaluate it and when they get around to opening a store near you. As for me, I think I'm going to dig out my old discman.Customer Review: Love my iPod
Summary: 4 Stars
I've only had my iPod for a few days, but so far it's great. The sound is wonderful and the interface is easy to use. The touch wheel is a bit sensitive... I nearly rendered myself hearing impaired after accidentally turning the volume way up. I primarily use it at the gym and it's nice and light. When I'm running, I can use the clip it comes with to clip it to the machine, otherwise, I can clip it onto my shorts and it doesn't bother me at all.
I had some problems installing, however. I'm using windows XP and the cd that came with the ipod didn't have the most current software for formatting the ipod, whereas I had the newest version of iTunes already on my computer. After downloading the newest software updates, everything worked just fine.
