Hello Ive owned an Apple ipod for over a year now, and I can tell you that its amazing ! I have the 10gig one and Ive only used it to approx 60% of its capacity. When I connect it to my Apple Mac it synchronises with itunes effortlessly.
I didnt quite like the headphones supplied with the ipod so I use the b&o earphones which in my opinion are the best compact earphones on the planet! combine them with the best MP3 player and what you get is the best personal MP3 set that money can buy.
I use a device called itrip which is a FM transmitter which attaches to the ipod and sends a frequency which can be picked up on the radio - this is very good for my car as Ive only got a radio cassette player. - I Purchased my ipod from singapore where I saved approx 30% from the Apple website price
