I bought this product in the airport on the way back to Belfast from London, due to a special offer. As soon as you open the box and see the way the product is packaged you know you're onto a winner!
This is my first portable MP3 Player, and I must say I'm a complete convert. The Ipod is such a sleek piece of hardware,and the click wheel so inovative and easy to use. I have a huge collection of Cds and Photos, so being able to carry them about in something as small as a cigarette packet is brilliant. It's also very easy to navigate all your tracks and photos. Having said that, you must make sure you have them all labelled correctly in the first place. You'll also need a USB 2.0 or firewire card in your PC/Mac, so make sure you have this first.
The Ipod Photo also comes with a great docking station and an ipod pouch, plus the neccessary cables to hook it to the TV or hifi. I use mine through my car stereo and already couldn't live without it! Very highly recommended!!!!

The iPod Photo, is a fantastic machine. Reading one review suggesting iTunes is 'stupid arcane' software, annoyed me because this person had not checked their facts properly. First iTunes is very easy to operate, and also with the new iTunes 4.7.1 it makes it even easier to operate and use your iPod. Also with regular updates from the apple website where you can download software updates on to your iPod via a computer and it increases the performance of your iPod. You can also go to www.apple.com/support/iPod and you can see for yourself the fantastic functions the iPod can do. You also have contacts, notes and a calendar on the iPod which you can sync with your computer. Another very important function the iPod has is backing large files on to your iPod. I had two quicktime files both 5mb each and I simply dragged them on to my iPod and it was a piece of cake.
If your into audio books the iPod has software for audio books as well.
Apple have fixed the problem regarding charging the battery on the iPod. When the iPod is connected to a computer the iPod battery starts charging. If you charge the iPod for about 2 hours, the battery is 80% charged.
I have nothing against anybody writing a review, but they should make sure they have the facts first before stating their opinion on a product.

I was thinking about buying one of these i thought it was gonna be awesome and beat everyone elses players without a problem, then i came across my friends iriver H340 i was deflated instantly. the problem is that the iriver seems to be better all around. The price of the iriver is considerably better, and it will play video, has radio, records in high quality.
the iriver also had the ability to transfer photos off a gigital camera directly without the need for a computer, and didnt compress them to a low resolution as well, i also like how you can just drag abd drop music onto the iriver without having to use some stupid arcane software like itunes.
I have also heard that the iriver is having new software designed for it by a group called rockbox, which means in the near future it could have even more features.
My friends who own ipods have had many problems with their players, and have had to reset them alot and they find itunes very annoying to use.
However the ipod is good cause it can plug into the tv and has nice easy to use software, but due to the superior sound and build quality of the iriver combined with the lower price and larger number of features and accessories included i am going to go with the iriver h340.

OK, I have a digital camera - I didn't really need to get an iPhoto - but it's so cool! I love having the album artwork on it (be warned you will spend hours, days loading all your cds and artwork into the iPod).
The click menu is great and so easy to use. I am impressed with the quality of sound. My ipod goes everywhere with me. It even helps keep me fit as I don't mind walking places so much when I have such a large selection of music to choose from.
The quality of the photos is top notch as well although I seriously don't think it will come in handy, it might be good for people with kids to show off their little darlings to some sounds.
I'm still not getting anything like the advertised battery life but it does get better after every charge.
If, like I was, you are still swithering then my advice is go but it - you won't be disappointed.

I received my ipod photo a month before the christmas period so have had plenty of time to play around so I thought I'd give you all my opinion. I had already owned the 3rd generation ipod for around a year when i lost it. Oh the joy of waking up afetr a heavy night to find now ipod. However when I came to replace it if found I was able to get the ipod photo for less than I orginally paid for my 3rd gen ipod. this obviuosly is my first plus for the new ipod the drop in price.
The addition of the click wheel is another gret move by apple. At first I will admit that I found it took some getting used to compared to the old method but once you have the hang of it eveything seems quicker and easier. The menu is just as simple to use and sychronising with itunes couldn't be easier.
Music playback is still top rate as you'd expect and the addition of album art is fantastic. I must admit that I have spent a long time allocating album covers to tracks i don't think anyone with the option will be able resist. The one draw back with regrad music playback is the damn iopd headphones sadly if the music you listen to envolves any sort of bass prefer for distortion at high volumes. I brought a pair of sony ear bud headphones also from amazon to accompany the ipod and are without a doubt one of the best acessories I have purchased alond with the evo2 iskin.
The photo's are a brilliant addition as you can spend those annoying hours on public transport reliving old memories. Be warned however it use up to 4 mega pixel photo's. This could explain some of the issues that have arisen for the previous reviwer.
All in all ipod has changed the way I listen to music forever. some may say it has even changed their lives. IF YOU HAVEN'T YET GOT AN IPOD GET ONE IT'S THAT SIMPLE!!!!!
