Review: Apple iPod 20GB Click Wheel 4th Generation MP3 Player. I'll keep it brief, I started to get the mp3 bug and bought a Creative 512mb player. This was ok, but I was intrigued by all the hype about the Apple iPOD. In addition to this, I wanted to store more music. I read every online review and the iPOD seemed to fair better than its main competitors, however it did have a few areas which concerned me. Some of these concerns are raised in the reviews below this. In short I took the plunge and bought the 20Gb iPod. When it arrived I was amazed at the quality - it felt nice to hold (unlike some of its competitors). Before long I had my entire CD collection on it (250cds) with plenty of room to spare (8Gb). The iPOD's software is simple to use, even for mp3 amateurs like me. I am so glad I bought this over anything else. I have also invested in the following bits of kit to further my pleasure (this is as a result of the fact that I don't just want to listen to music through headphones). 1. Bose sound dock - this plays your 20, 30, 40Gb iPOD and mini iPOD through an excellent Bose speaker system - true professional sound from a device the size of a small shoe box, so loud but so clear - £250 from Apple. It is also the best speaker set up available. This is a must have!!!!
2. iTrip, this clips into the top of your iPOD and allows you to play your iPOD through any radio, in the car, kitchen, on holiday, wherever. It's a great invention. Just tune your radio to 87.9 fm and it will play your entire cd collection. Find this on ebay for less than £20.
3. Sony Fontopia headphones (get them in white) and buy them from amazon uk. For the price nothing comes close, nothing at all! Read the reviews. I hope you have found this review helpful, iPOD is the best, I assure you. Don't buy cheaper as I guarantee this little voice in your head will nag you for the lovely white iPOD!!! |
