An Apple is an Apple .is an Apple.All products par excellence .My son owns this product. IPOD4(8GB) .He got it as a gift from my sister from USA in Jan 2010, when she visited India. He uses it to listen English music, movies, download and play games, football, takes pics, videos etc. There are infinite photos and videos inside his POD taken during outings, games, birthday parties.He gets invited for most parties and is the videographer.
Even during swimming classes with wet hands.He keeps it locked so really I dont have an inkling of details inside.So after being used(read abused) by a gang of 14 it is as good as new, unfazed may be a few scratches behind. Thats all.
Consider it good investment.And be proud to own it since very few deserve it.APPLE products are only for those who like to own the best- not third grade cheap products.Ideal gift for grown up children.
