Apple 80 GB iPod AAC/MP3 Video Player Black (5.5 Generation)
Friday, December 28th, 2007Apple 80 GB iPod AAC/MP3 Video Player Black (5.5 Generation)
When the 5th generation Ipod ‘video’ came out, and all of my friends got one, I was kinda jumpy on getting one. But I had a good mp3 player at the time, and I passed the temptation. But this thing is wonderful. Same overall design and concept, with some really noticeable features, like the search, which is great. Games are sweet, and will take over my cell phone for tetris. Battery life in the 80 GB is 20 hours, which is what I need. It’s brighter too.
But the big deal that I LOVE is the gapless playback. Your songs will SEAMLESSLY go from one to the next, making a very good listening experience. No need to watch movies on the tiny screen, but if you want to wait a few more months, the next ipod is supposed to come out that is truly ‘video’, but this is speculation. but this now is only $350!
I hated iPod for a long time, but after buying all kinds of other ones and the now iPod knock-off’s, I know that iPod will be a good way to go. get a case, and you’re set.

iPod Shuffle pays respect to its bigger siblings with a thumb-friendly, circular control pad that puts the “go” in ergonomic. Click the center button to play and pause, and click the outer buttons to move back, skip forward, and adjust the volume. The Shuffle’s headphone jack does double-duty as a dock connector. Flip the iPod Shuffle upside-down and drop it into the included dock. Then connect the dock to your Mac or Windows PC via the USB for a quick sync and charge. And if you’re away from your computer, you can charge on the go with the optional USB adapter.
