Title: Apple iPod Nano (2nd generation)
Pros: The second-generation Apple iPod Nano takes on a new scratch-resistant aluminum body, which is available in a variety of bright and shiny colors; it's still superslender but more durable, thanks to a seamless construction. It supports photos (with thumbna
Cons: The iPod Nano still doesn't play video, not that you'd want to watch it on the small screen, and there's no built-in FM tuner or recording capability; not all color options are available for all memory sizes.
Summary: The second-generation Apple iPod Nano is like the successful offspring of an iPod Mini and a first-generation iPod Nano. It's small, stylish, user-friendly, and competitively priced--a great player all around and suitable for a variety of users.

Title: Apple iPod Nano (4GB)
Pros: Gorgeous, superslim design with bright, photo-friendly screen; easy to operate; works seamlessly with iTunes and iTunes Music Store, which has the world's largest selection of music; nimble processor and system performance; no skipping, thanks to flash me
Cons: Unspectacular battery life; though durable, device scratches easily; pricey in terms of gigabytes per dollar; 4GB maximum capacity is not a good fit for many power users; no sought-after extra features such as FM radio; no A/V-out; doesn't work with Camer
Verdict: Thanks to its limited capacity, the gorgeous Apple iPod Nano isn't for everybody, but it sets the standard for MP3 players to come.
Summary: The pricey Apple iPod Nano is thin, beautiful, and feature filled, but 2GB or 4GB may not be enough for many power users.

Title: iPod classic Review
Pros: Bright, clear screen; excellent battery life, improved user interface, includes three new games, sounds as good as previous full-sized iPod; attractively priced with good price per GB
Cons: Sluggish interface and unresponsive controls, incompatible with many existing dock-connector accessories, can't use previously purchased games, Cover Flow not terribly helpful
Verdict: If capacity is your prime concern, the iPod classic is the one to own. But it's not flawless. Yes, the interface is slicker and sometimes more helpful, but ultimately it's no easier to find and play your music on this iPod than it is on a 5G iPod. Given t
Summary: The sixth generation of iPod has huge storage capacity, but with the touch on the scene is it past its sell-by date?

Title: Apple iPod nano (3rd gen, video)
Pros: Crisp, bright video playback; exceptionally thin all-metal body; above-average battery life; built-in games; advanced user interface
Cons: Wider body; smaller scroll wheel; lack of video output; average-sounding audio quality
Verdict: Apple's new iPod nano seems to be drawing equal amounts of ire and admiration. Although we miss the slender form of the second-generation iPod nano, we feel the latest edition has more going for it than against it. At less than £100, the 4GB iPod na
Summary: With its wider, square design and its video playback capability, the latest iPod nano is more like a 'light' version of the iPod classic. Despite its changes, the nano is still one of the smallest, thinnest and most exquisitely designed MP3 players on the

Summary: Coming in 80GB and 160GB capacities, the new Apple iPod classic can hold a massive archive of music and video. There's no need to pick and choose which music goes with you, even if you rip CDs at the very highest lossless quality. The interface has been g
