Nano Ipod

Nano Ipod
iPod pavilion at CES reflects the iPhone/iPod market
Christopher Breen spent his Thursday at CES walking through the iLounge Pavilion. What he found: a lot of cases and a lot of focus on the iPhone and iPod touch at the expense of other iPod models.

What so think about the Video Nano iPod?

My dad said I could have it as a Christmas gift but it only comes in up to 8gb. My miny ipod is a 4gb and I have about 200 songs only taking up little more then 1gb. Is 8gb a lot for a iPod that I will be playing movies and tv shows on?
If not does anyone know with the Video Nano iPod will come in more the 8gb?

Definitely get a Zune.

On woot.com, they're selling 30GB Zunes for about $100

I prefer Zunes over iPod because:

1. Better support - All Zune devices get the same update. Whether it was v1, or 2.0, they all get the same support. Apple doesn't give the same update to all their music players however.

2. Bigger screen - Compare the small squinty iPod screen to a large Zune screen. Much better for videos.

3. durability - My Zune has lasted with me since last December of 06'. Most iPod users by 2-3 every year.

4. scratch-less - I have never seen any significant scratches on my Zune. However, there are numerous on my iPods.

5. Better UI - where as iPod's is rather stiff, Zune's have a virtual 2D UI, that's rather impressive. It's easy and quik to navigate on.

6. FM Radio - like local news? talk radio? concert ticket contests? new music? Zune has radio. iPod doesn't.

7. Personalize it - You can change the background image, get a case, or even do laser engraving with neat background art at Zune Originals: https://zuneoriginals.net/

8. Subscription service "option" - If you're not a big fan of buying music individually, then subscription is for you. For one flat monthly fee, you can have as much access as to any music you want on Zune Marketplace. It's like "renting" music for a month. About $15. Or you could buy songs individually.

9. better integration with the Xbox 360 - the new Zune update will promise better integration with the Xbox 360 than the iPod.

10. View in landscape mode - you can see videos and pictures on landscape mode, so it's like a widescreen.

11. Better included headphones - where the iPod's headphones have horrible quality, the ones with Zune aren't so bad. They even have a magnetic clip.

12. WiFi - you can share music, videos, podcasts, and many things with it.

13. WiFi sync - you can sync to your computer without connecting it!

14. Same price as iPods - Same price as regular iPods of the same specs, but includes more bang for your buck.

15. Zune Social - share music with your friends with your Zunes and online. Discover new music and share your music knowledge everywhere : http://social.zune.net/

16. Sync with Windows Media Center - sync recorded TV shows onto your Zune device

17. Zune software is MUCH more simpler than iTunes - give it a try for free to see : http://www.zune.net/en-US/products/zunes...

Zune 4 : $150
Zune 8 : $200
Zune 30 : $199

Isn't technology cool and what is cooler than the tiny little Apple iPod Nano? Not much say the techy elite! Do you ever wonder how they accomplish this technological magic? Many do, of course we are told if we open it up to take a look, we void the warranty completely. Well that is just what a couple of techno gurus did at MIT and it is amazing the components inside and how small they really are. I mean this is far out and I am most certain that if you do your own research you will indeed, find out similar things.

Mr. Christopher Harting has displayed the components all laid out for you like a schematic with this digital picture. It shows the little one point five inch LCD display, a masterpiece and marvel in technology itself. Also you can see the little battery, can you believe that little thing can run the iPod Nano for six solid hours; impressive indeed. Of course also enclosed is the massive memory chip, which can store more songs than you care to record. Of course in looking at all this you can certainly see why you would not want to accidentally drop this little high-priced in the toilet.

Who says the United States cannot design the best and most innovative products and produce the best technology in the World? One look at the guts of the iPod Nano and you can see what American ingenuity is all about. When there is a will, there is a way and let's face it the iPod Nano is here to stay!
