Summary: SO CuTE
Review: The funny thing is some people waited for over 3 months to get their mini ipod's, 5 days before christmas my mom went to target to get started on her christmas shopping, and she got the last blue one! The mini ipod is the cuttest thing i have ever gotten in my life, and one of the best gifts! my sister who has a dell music player and for the same price got 9,000 songs laughed at me! grated dell has a better deal, but who really needs 9,000 songs? the mini ipod is light weight so when i go running or i am working out i can't even feel it. although the battery life isn't what it says to be the ipod is still wonderful!

Summary: Small in Size not in Functionality
Review: The iPod mini is built from the ground up as a portable device for people with fast-paced lives. It's small and lightweight physical dimensions are perfectly suited to be being placed in a pants or shirt pocket without being a burden.But don't let its light weight fool you into thinking the iPod mini is a pushover. The 4GB hard drive (3.7 GB actual) can hold about 1,000 songs - enough to last almost three full days. The installed software includes four games; calendar; notepad; contact database; clock; backlight with timer; alarm clock; and the abilities to customize the main menu; create playlists; and rate songs. All this is in addition to being able to be used as an external hard drive. However, the most revolutionary aspect of the iPod mini (aside from it's size and weight) is its control interface. Incorporating the 'Menu', 'Pause/Play', 'Forward' and 'Back' buttons directly to the touch sensitive scroll wheel not only creates simplicity from a design standpoint, but form a user one as well. Accessing these controls is a breeze. Thankfully the touch wheel is designed well enough that accidental pressing of a control is unlikely to occur since you have to press down a bit to activate the button. I'd actually like to see the entire iPod line adopt this interface. Some people complain that the iPod mini is only slightly cheaper than the 20 GB iPod and offers a lot less storage space. But what you loose in storage space you gain in portability. It is also important to consider that compared to other players of its size and weight, the iPod mini offers much more storage space, many more features, and a better music jukebox in iTunes 4.0. I want to carry the most music I can in the smallest possible device that offers the best interface and features. For me, that device is unquestionably the iPod mini. If you have similar demands of a portable music device, the iPod mini is sure to become a permanent accessory to your lifestyle.

Summary: 8-hour battery life?
Review: Why does Apple insist on lying to its customers? Maybe an 8-hour battery life would be possible if one listened to the Ipod on very low volume, without touching the dial. But, isn't the joy of the Ipod that you're supposed to be able to skip over songs, mix up the order of your music... listen to What you want, When you want it? If you're like me, and using your Ipod as the Good Lord meant it to be used, you'll be lucky if your battery lasts 3 hours. Which means, almost every time I use my Ipod, the battery dies before I return home. So uncool. Especially since Apple promised otherwise.

Summary: Incredible
Review: Wow. The iPod experience starts when you open the box. No scissors needed. No hacking away at steel-like plastic. I slide the cover off the cube, and open it up. Sitting there is the most beautiful device I've ever seen. This is the porche of MP3 players. It is nothing short of gorgeous. Beautiful, very functional, and EXTREMELY well thought out. You can TELL someone was thinking when they designed this thing. You turn it on. Immediatly you have quick access via the very-cool click-wheel to 3 fun games (4 once you load the music) and an empty calendar (which can be filled from calendar files from many major calendar apps, including MS Outlook). You can also customize all sorts of settings. The mini seems extra beautiful in the dark, with the bright backlight glowing. iTunes is undoubtedly the best music management software out there. Its better than Real, MusicMatch, I've tried them all, and iTunes BLOWS them away. Its simple, functional, beautiful, and makes sense----like the iPod. They sync in perfect rythem. iTunes transfered my songs to the iPod at about 1 second/song with USB 2. Now THAT's FAST. That included playlists, etc... The Headphones are NOT the worthless things you often get with players. These things are top-notch earbuds. The iPod can be useds as a portable hard drive. Do the math and think how many of those little USB memory keys would be needed to store as much as one of these. The AC Adaptor is cool in itself---essentially travel size DO do your research. The iPOD will NOT work with USB 1 ports or a 4-Pin Firewire. It requires USB 2 or a 6 pin Firewire. The sound quality is very good, and the battery is said to last longer than the regular iPod. You might think, for $50 more, I could get the regular iPod. Well, think about how much music you have. I have 20 CDs, and they don't begin to fill it up. Do you really need 15 GIG? If you don't, Go Mini and save yourself $50. =D
