you buy that and you're paying for style not music. Spend 50 dollars more and get the 20 gig.

I concur. For the money, iPod Mini doesn't pack a big enough bang for the buck unless the diminutive size *really* matters to you. That's a LOT of gig for an extra half-C-bill.

Next generation they'll do something, but by golly, I hope there are more seriously iPod competitors in the not-so-distant future. It'd really help drop prices and the consumer wins!

Apple is very good at getting people to pay for style and aesthetics. After a point, you don't care much about that anymore.

Save your money.

if he/she can afford it, goot for him/her.
don't have one myself, but i think they are more for girls than anything else.

wait a month or two for the 60 gig to come out. I believe that's why all the prices dropped 100 dollars. I know it's coming due to apple buying a crap load of toshibas new 60 gig mini hard drive. Now i want one.

Thanks for the feedback...


After reading reviews on amazon, and yours I've concluded the same.

Especially what someone said about that after a while, aestetics doesn't matter anymore... Yes, it's fancy, and like someone also said; it's more for girls to have in their purse...



I'm going for Rio Carbon

5gb <- Microdrive (Seagate)
Playback: 25h (not 8h)
firewire/usb2
equalizer (not on ipod)
voicerec (not on ipod)
physically smaller
no stupid software neccesary


yeah! now I'm grateful for not finding it anywhere on Schipol Airport (Amsterdam)

there are a lot of rumors that new new ipod has equilizers and has a lot more surprises hidden in it. And it does have voice recording.

It goes along with the saying, You can settle for something now, or you can wait and save a few months or years longer and get the best. buy a civic because it's cheap and mod that now, or save a while and buy a TT supra or Z06 vette.
