Apple iPod 10GB M8976B-A
Product Rating  
Smaller than ever (just 0.62 inches thick), the new iPod fits comfortably in the palm of your hand and slips easily into your pocket - and your life. At 5.6 ounces, it weighs less than 2 compact discs, and even many mobile phones. And yet the iPod gives you a huge hard drive. Do the maths: that's enough space to store three weeks of music - played continuously, 24/7 - or one new song a day for the next 20 years.Once again, Apple turns the portable digital music player market on its ear with hassle-free functionality and stunning, well-considered design that place iPod far ahead of the curve and the competition. Building on the success of the touch wheel (which made scrolling through an entire music collection quick and easy), the new iPod has been re-engineered with an all-touch interface for enhanced durability and sensitivity. With an LCD screen and buttons that feature a backlight for clear visibility in low-light conditions, iPod is designed for easy one-handed operation. So the best way to take an entire music collection anywhere is now even better. The 15GB and 30GB iPod models come with a dock that makes charging and syncing easier than ever - no more reaching around, looking for the right port. An elegant, convenient home base for iPod on a desk or connected to a home stereo system, the dock provides syncing via FireWire or USB 2.0, charging via FireWire and audio line out for connecting to powered speakers or a stereo system. Designed to give you the best portable digital music experience ever, the iPod delivers the highest sound quality from input to output. iPod supports the most popular audio formats - including MP3 (up to 320 kbps), MP3 Variable Bit Rate (VBR) and WAV - giving you access to a wide range of audio file types. And iPod is the only portable digital music player that supports the AAC format (Mac-only), which features CD-quality audio in smaller file sizes than MP3, so that even more songs fit on your iPod. The iPod now lets you do a whole lot more in addition to maintaining your contacts, calendar and to-do lists. iPod now includes Solitaire, Brick and Parachute, three great games you can play anywhere (a feature you're sure to appreciate the next time you're standing in a queue or waiting for someone). You can even use your own music as the soundtrack to a game. iPod also includes a notes reader that lets you download text-based information and read it on the screen. This way you can have the information you need - on everything from restaurant reviews to nightlife guides, and from news articles to exercise routines - at your fingertips. The iPod features a sleep timer, so you can fall asleep to your music. And with the iPod's new alarm clock, you can choose either an alarm tone or your favourite music to wake you up iPod now includes Solitaire, Brick and Parachute, three great games you can play anywhere. iPod also includes a notes reader that lets you download text-based information and read it on the screen.

Extremely good player. Easy to navigate and looks amasing. the best player on the market bar none. There are a few disadvantages, the battery lasts for 10 hours (if your lucky) some of the minidiscs last for over 100 hours on a single AA battery. The player also scratches easily. If you have FireWire on your computer then there is no substitute.
