Good Points
Looks cool

Bad Points
The sound drops out between tracks - only fair sound quality

General Comments
I regret that I will have to return the iPod Video model MA147LL that I purchased, due to a serious software bug and/or design flaw. When playing tracks that are meant to flow continuously from one into the next, the iPod interrupts the sound and blanks out for a moment between tracks. It does this EVEN WHEN RIPPED TO .WAV files, which do NOT have this problem with other manufacturer's players. HOW could such a serious design issue pass quality control and get out undetected, and or unfixed from Apple? SHAME on them, I expected better.
