    ^..........................
    Yes if there is nothing changed, okay they made it smaller and has the voice thing.
    There is hardly any change. Still boring.

    Apple makes a lot of stupid shit just to get it's followers to spend more money. That's why they come out with a new damn iPod every 3 months. Those sort of people are hilariously pathetic. 'Trendy' companies piss me off. It's like they value aesthetics over function. Look at the MacBook Air. What a piece of shit. Doesn't even have a disc drive.

    I have an iPod because I always have, since 6th grade. Yes, before everyone ever had one. Before anyone besides Mac users knew what Apple was, haha. I like it because it has a great user interface, and great software. Everything is quick and easy.

    I still think the 3rd generation iPods were the coolest ones ever made. 100% touch controls, with red backlit buttons.

    They're so sleek and fun to use. I miss that thing :(

    I liked how they had the layer of clear plastic over them like the originals did. It's totally broken tho. Not sure what's wrong with it.

    Now I just have this.....

    Yeah, I got the 80 gig sliver ipod and a shuffle too.


    I dont really like carrying around my 80gig, cause it takes up a lot of room in me pockets, and I like my shuffle for when I excercise.

    Only paid ten bucks for my shuffle

    I would like this if it didnt have the silly headphone mounted controls. I have a ski helmet that has headphones build into the ear pads and I never change the song while skiing. But since it apparently needs to use the special headphones its out the window.

    I don't understand. If it has a 3.5mm headphone jack, wouldn't any headphones work?

    Yeah I own an 80gig silver classic and I love it, but I only have like 2gb of free space on it from all of the music I have.

    Also Wes the macbook air does serve a function. I don't know the last time I needed a disc for something on my computer, I always torrent things and program files already come as disc images. The point of the air is for it to be as small and lightweight as possible while still maintaining power, which imo it does well (just at a hefty price tag especially for the SSD).

    Eh, you could get a much nicer laptop for that price. And I mean look at it. Breakable. lol. It's a trend whore's machine.

    But now that you mention it, you're right about the DVD drive. I still wouldn't buy a laptop without one though.

    The controls are mounted to the headphone wire.

    I guess you didnt check what the site said. Yes, it's a 3.5mm jack but the headphones have volume on it and a button that skips forward, backward, and says the song.

    Afraid of Joker? XD

    I didn't read the site because I figured they wouldn't point out that you can only use 1 pair of headphones with it.

    i realised a fault with this thing, as far as i know you can only change songs and volume and all that crap with the earphones right, well what if you dont want to use those earphones because you have better ones, or they break...

    just another way apple are milking money out of people.
