Apple iPod 20GB (Gen 4)

Harry Blethyn

By far the best MP3 player on the market. This new generation design makes the best player even better.

Really nice design and some excelent features like the new click wheel. The new iPod holds the features and capacity of the older version iPod but incorperates the new click wheel currently on the iPod mini. This saves space allowing the player to be ever so slightly smaller. A new improved hard disk allows it to be thinner also. A better battery life of 12 hours is also a compliment to the new gen iPod.

Unfortunatly the iPod has recently become bit of a fashion accessory to some rather than a practical audio player. In terms of functionability it is faultless. The price seems steep at first but get it home and you wont regret it. The iPod can seem delicate at first but if you take care of it like you should it will be fine.

A great player with no faults and a shed load of accessories. You cant go wrong with an iPod.

Alternativly you can go for an iPod mini which has all of the key features of the bigger iPod's but is only 4 GB which may be more practical for you. The iPod mini is also more durable than its 20Gb counterpart.

This is the 20 Gigabyte Ipod with a clickwheel.

Everyone knows already how popular the Ipod brand is, but until you actually hold one, you have no idea of how amazing they actually are.

Luckily I held off buying one a while back, because soon after I was thinking about getting it, they brought out this version with the click wheel.

Apple seem to sell millions of these things off, and then go and release a new version of ipod with better features! Bascially, now i've seen on the apple.com site that they have a photo ipod which will hold photos as well as music and has a colour display - they should advertise that this will be available soon, before selling older ipods to people!

For the price, you cant complain about what you get! The 20gb ipod has more than enough memory and also doubles up as a portable hard drive. Firmware updates have already become available to me which makes the software on the ipod better.

I advise that you get an ipod over anything else because they blow the competition out the water!
