Ipod impressions

Posted on March 28, 2006

Things I don’t like about my ipod video (no order)
1) battery life. I can use it for one, maximum two days.
2) no way to change volume without playing, I have to take my earphones out before playing songs.
3) user interface often gets stuck.
4) difficult to rate songs
5) I want to skip audio books, but there are no way to edit “random song play list”.
6) Expensive accessories
7) no way to replace the battery (why does it have it to be so slick if it has to be always in a case, to protect it from scratches?)
8) no lightweight full-featured itunes replacement
9) proprietary USB cable
10) It takes long time for windows to recognize and mount it.
11) no way to set brightness level.
12) Very easy to scratch front and back.
13) Instead of time, often shows “ipod”.
14) No biper/vibrator to notify about appointment.

Things that I like:
1) 30Gb of storage
2) Navigation menu, and wheel.
3) size, weight.
4) pauses when headphones are removed.
5) calendar & person contacts
6) Album art
7) Itunes organized by mp3 collection.

Would I buy it, now that I used for almost one semester? No. It’s not perfect and, ipod hype is unjustified, but it is a good mp3 player, so I’ll keep it.
