General Comments

I have to say I do like iPod's. I think they are easy to use and cool little gadgets. However, I must warn people that you must be prepared to take back your iPod when it breaks, which it will! The first one I had broke (by over-heating) in 2 days. I took it back to Currys and got a new one straight away. This one lasted for about 5 months then broke (nobody could tell me why this time). I took it back and got gift certificates instead. If your iPod breaks they will take it back with pretty much no questions. Beware that this is so because so many are faulty. If you are prepared to do the above then I would recommend it, if not, then don't go near them!

    I must say that I partially agree. iPod are awesome gadgets, and they are addictive as well, because the first iPod I ever got was the silver iPod Mini. And yes, it broke. The battery life was acting all strange, and I would charge it all night, then the next morning I would turn it on and it would die right away. Of course, since I had a warranty I got a brand new one. However, not long after, the same thing happened. Then I just decided to get the iPod Video, and I retired the iPod Mini to my Dad. He hardly ever used it, but he never had problems. I loved the Video, and nothing ever happened, and it didn't break or anything. However, soon after, I lost it. So, then I went back to my iPod Mini, and it's standing strong. I still use it up to this day, and it stays charged and strong!
