Manufacturer's Description

It's the small iPod with one very big idea: Video. Now the world's most popular music player lets you enjoy TV shows, movies, video podcasts, and more. The larger, brighter display means amazing picture quality. In five eye-catching colours, iPod nano is stunning all around.

Overview

An anodized aluminum top and polished stainless steel back. Five eye-catching colours. A larger, brighter display with the most pixels per inch of any Apple display, ever. iPod nano stirs up visual effects from the outside in.

And it'll wow you for hours. Play up to 5 hours of video or up to 24 hours of audio on a single charge (1). All that staying power and a wafer-thin, 6.5-mm profile makes iPod nano one small big attraction.

Cover Flow

If a picture says a thousand words, think of what all the album art in your collection might say. With Cover Flow on iPod nano, you can flip through your music to find the album you want to hear. Use the Click Wheel to browse music by album cover, then select an album to flip it over and see the track list.

Music

Use the Click Wheel to adjust volume, navigate songs, browse in Cover Flow, or explore the Music menu by playlist, artist, album, song, genre, composer, and more. Want to mix things up? Click Shuffle Songs. iPod nano makes your music look as good as it sounds, thanks to its bright colour display.

Movies

Buy movies from the iTunes Store and you can sync them to your iPod nano to watch anywhere, anytime. Up to 5 hours of video playback means you can watch two movies back to back.1 And for your viewing pleasure, the 320-by-240-pixel display — with a whopping 204 pixels per inch — is 65 percent brighter than before.

TV Shows

There's always something good on iPod nano. Browse thousands of episodes of your favorite TV shows on the iTunes Store, then sync them to your iPod nano. Watch last night's episodes this morning, or buy a whole TV series and play a pocket-size marathon.

Podcasts

The iTunes Store features thousands of free video and audio podcasts, including indie favorites and offerings from such big names as ABC News, Comedy Central, ESPN, PBS, NPR, and many more. Browse and subscribe to podcasts, then sync them to your iPod nano. You can even play video podcasts on TV using an optional Apple component or composite AV cable.

Audiobooks

The digital shelves of the iTunes Store are stocked with thousands of audiobooks — including exclusives like the entire Harry Potter series — so you can catch up on your reading wherever iPod nano takes you. iPod nano even recognizes where you left off reading and bookmarks your place.

Games

Put hours of fun at your fingertips. iPod nano comes with three games — Vortex, iQuiz, and Klondike — and you can download more from the iTunes Store. All iPod games are designed specifically for the iPod interface. And all of them look great on the 2-inch colour display.

Photos

iPod nano holds up to 7,000 photos you can sync from your Mac or PC via iTunes. Use the Click Wheel to scroll through photo thumbnails. To see a photo full screen, click the center button. You can even view your photo slideshows — complete with music and transitions — on a TV using an optional Apple component or composite AV cable.

Extras

Calendars, contacts, and a screen lock appear in the Extras menu, along with a few more handy items. Take the world clock, for example. Spin the Click Wheel to choose different clocks for cities all over the world. For workouts, use the built-in stopwatch to log your best times.

Top Service and Item
Hi, I bought this on the 28th of October with free super save delivery. It was dispatched on the 29th with an estimate arrival of 6th of May. That was ok because i wanted it for my girlfriends birthday (20th May) thats why I chose super save delivery. And I received it today (30th October) happy days. What more can you ask for. Best price, no messing about or worries and its a cracking ipod aswell.

Couldnt ask for more,

Cheers

Great buy, really recommend
I got this back in February for my birthday, after having spent three years with a little stick MP3 player. I had heard some negative things about iPods, but I decided to go with this one anyways since it was pretty competitively priced. I have not been disappointed yet. The interface is very user friendly and intuitive, and music is pretty easily transferred from your computer. The screen is sharp and sound quality is very good. Lots of other little extras on it to keep your thumbs busy if you're sitting around waiting for the bus or something. I have also been extremely impressed with both durability and battery life. I recently took it on a 4 week trip to Indonesia, and only had to charge it up about three times. It also managed to survive the trip loose in my backpack without a scratch or crack (I've also accidentally dropped it a few times and almost had a heart attack until I realised it was still playing music). The small size actually works very well, fits in the hand nicely and means I can slide it into the front pocket on my jeans when walking in to lectures. And it looks pretty sleek too!

Basically, I've been thrilled with the purchase and haven't regretted it at all. Really do recommend this for anyone looking to get a new MP3 player.

Love it, fabulous piece of kit!
Due to some negative reviews, I had some concerns when I bought two of these for Christmas presents last year (one for my husband and one for him to give me!). All I can say is that based on our sample of two, its a great piece of kit. I really love my Ipod, so does hubby. Its exceeded our expectations (and I'm not that easy to please)!
