Well, I know alot of you guys hate ipods, i dont know why.
Yesterday my parents surprised me with an Ipod as a get well soon after surgery gift and i must say i am VERY pleased. It gives great sound, has a great feel to the touch pad, holds ALOT of songs on the 40 gb. After some minor trouble shooting ive grown to love this little white monster. The only confusing part for me was the Itunes, putting together my playlist was probably the hardest part.
Heavy's rating
9.9 out of 10.

If you'd gotten an iRiver, youd be rating it 10 of 10. :)
iPods are great, theyre just the iriver's hotter little sister.

I dont know why anyone would hate an iPod so much.

But the Iriver doesnt have all the accessories, i also got a little speaker thing. The sound is unbelieavble, It picks up radio with CD quality and has AMAZING sound with the Ipod.

holy crap. You got a four hundred dollar cdplayer for a get well soon present? What'd you have done, a triple bypass?
Heavygain

Yep, Its also a present for getting good grades throughout my previous schoolyear.
Im using this thing over Winamp, thats how much i love this thing, i get AMAZING sound.

My parents got the 40 gb for 150$, then gave it to me for a get well present, and i am happy with it, i dont give a shit how much better an Iriver is, im happy with what i got.

Indeed the iPod is very good. I love them both. Its just that the iRiver is better, and 'I'm much happier with mine that I would be with an iPod.
Just letting future shoppers know.

I got one today as well. I love it. The touch pad is confusing until you figure out you need to make a circular motion on it. :D I love this thing. It did use up pretty much my lifes saving though as I have no job... What is it? 10,000 songs or something like that?

Both my sister and my flight instructor have an iPod and both of them think it's the sweetest thing since cotton candy.
My sister found hers on OverStock.com and got it for like, $20 than she would have paid for the mini one.
I'd want one if I had a need for it!
And Heavygain, if you don't mind me asking, what are you recovering from?

What the fuck. You are spoiled.
Recovering my ass. You had a birth mark removed. I had mine removed when I was in elementry school. My present *was* the surgery.
I LIKE WASTING MY MONEY!

:D I didn't know you had to move your hand in a circle to use the touchpad. There is no touchpad on the older version which is probably what you are refering to. Props to anyone who can figure out the touchpad within 2 minutes of fiddling with it.

Eh Ipods arent bad but I prefer my Creative Labs Jukebox Zen Ultra
Heavygain

I used to have a Creative nomad jukebox 3 40gb, but the battery span was longer when it was on than when i left it off.

O_o the batteries lost more energy off, than when it was playing something?
thats weird.
Heavygain
2004-07-24, 08:24 PM
Yep, the thing was great at first but after about 3 months the battery got fucked up, plaus the thing was bigger than my CD player and had REALLY REALLY shitty sound, Am radio was barely worse than the sound on the nomad.

Itunes is a fucking great program, It is so easy to import music, Playlist are easy to make, not a flaw in the whole program, once you learn to use it.
