great review.

i give this a 10/10 on the quality of review level. i have never seen a review so confounding, so positive, and so in-depth as this review.

About as entertaining as the OP, no? :p

EDIT: Plus only 15 mins. to go in the work day makes me a little giddy, so leave me alone.

That statement in it's self is ironic and pathetic.

he shares his experiences with his ipod with us. unlike you, he actually had some experiences with the said product. you on the other hand, just b!tch and moan about apple products without any actual experience at all. you are as pathetic as the people who hates on bestbuy when they're in canada, talks sh!t about dells when they don't know crap about computers, and talk trash on honda's when they aren't even old enough to get a learner's permit.

by the way i assume OP is talking about THIS. in that case, for $185 you can get a flash based mp3 player with similar capacity, or hell, for the same price you can get 2gb more from THIS.

that wasn't such a hot buy at all.

:D So tell us how you really feel
Let me guess, you've got a myspace eh? And you also think I've never used an apple product eh? That I hate apple because it's cool? :D

I am just saying that my Philips has not locked up yet whereas the ipod has locked up at least twice-I tried to reset it,it was hard locked I would plug it into my computer thinking maybe that would unlock it but I had to wait for the battery to die both times which is very frustrating.
Not only that but I had to install apple's crummy itunes to get my mp3s onto it,just copying to it did not work.

You're too dumb to own an iPod.

You can use Winamp to transfer songs ;). I've owned various iPods since they came out in 2001, and a Mini froze once on me. Once in 5 years :).

I like something I can pug into the usb and it be usable like a hard drive simply plug in and copy the songs over to it-not have to use winamp or itunes

By lock up I bet you accidentally hit browse and all songs, thereby making your Ipod generate a humongous list of all the songs.

Besides everything else, you shouldn't judge an MP3 player on the headphones included in the purchase. No matter what you buy, the headphones WILL suck. Ignorance is bliss :).

no I did not hit browse,it does lock up and I have to wait for the battery to die before I can use it again.
The whole apple software is a pain as well.I like it simple.With the Philips I can copy music to it or FROM it as if it was a hard drive.
