Close to perfection
To hold this iPod is to be amazed. It is almost lighter than air - any thinner and it would slip through your hands. It is truly remarkable that something so lightweight, so small can do so much. My less than perfect rating is for the screen size and lack of firewire support. As I creep into my late 30s, I simply cannot read text that small anymore, and playing solitaire on that screen really hurts my eyes. The definition & brightness in the screen are truly remarkable, however. I truly miss the firewire iPods. On a Mac, synching was just faster w/ the firewire models - and if I'm on an older Mac that has USB 1.0 and FireWire, I would prefer firewire, but am stuck using USB. *sigh*
The small size means you can forget you have it in your pocket - so you should really have a case to protect it. I've talked to some folks who have accidentally left this in a pocket and then put it in the laundry. Adios ipod. Electronic components & water rarely make good dance partners.
I have more than enough audio (especially podcasts) to fill up one of the new 80GB video iPods, but I bought the new Nano for the Nike+ support - seems like a smart match - running/walking w/ an iPod that is so lightweight it doesn't bounce around and it has no moving parts to get rattled. I do like the huge numbers in the display when using the Nike+ adapter.
The sound is excellent. A definite upgrade from the Mini - even the center select button has matched color. This is a piece of futuretech - available to you now - and it works!
