Comment: With the and grabbing all the headlines recently, its easy to forget that Apple also relaunched its classic range of hard disk players the other week. But relauch it did, improve them it has and, despite the fact that its not the show-stopper...

Comment: The new iPod nano: Its a movie theater in the palm of your hand. Darn you, Apple. You know our iPod love is fickle, and you take advantage each and every time. We were happy with the 5G iPod (a.k.a. the video iPod), but we admit, we wanted the next...

Good: Say so long to the scratch-prone plastic. Thinner than ever. Improved software interface. Excellent screen.

Bad: No power adapter. Previously bought games won’t sync. Time to buy a new case.

Bottomline: The iPod classic and the iPod nano are the best of their respective product lines ever released. Will you be lucky enough to get one this holiday season? We hope so. iPOD NANO

Comment: Worthy successors to the iPod name. The hard disk iPod is better than ever. The legendary white iPod is no more. In its place is a slimmer brushed aluminium model, in silver or black, known as the iPod classic. Unlike Coke Classic, its even better t...

Comment: Apple has not only exceeded our expectations, its exceeded ones we didnt even have. The iPod classic is a superb audio player with a huge wealth of well-integrated features and intuitive navigation. Our only real concern is that menus can be laggy. ...

Comment: Theres no getting around the fact: Apples iPod line - last updated a year ago - was in dire need of a refresh heading into this weeks press event in San Francisco. And Apple provided that refresh in spades, updating all its existing iPod offerings...

Bottomline: My hands-on time with the new iPod classic left me with a largely positive impression. Its less exciting than the nano in terms of its new appearance and fewer major feature upgrades. However, two of those improvements - considerably better battery l...

Comment: If you thought all weve been doing lately is sit around, think again. After a lot of effort we managed to get our greedy paws on the monstous iPod Classic 160GB, which launched just a few months ago. Who said persistence doesnt pay? (For those who ca...

Comment: 11/07 iPod classic – Forbedret klassikerLastekapasitet koster ikke like mye som før. Derfor kan Apple tilby dobbelt så høy kapasitet for en femhundrelapp mindre på iPod classic. For et knapt år siden måtte man ut med 3.300 kroner for en fullblods...
