Apple iPod classic Sixth Gen. Black (80 GB, MB147LL/A) Digital Media Player

I just bought an iPod Classic and let me tell you I think it may of been my best purchase in a long time!

The main screen interface is not only visually appealling but extremly easy to understand and use(unlike some other mp3 players). The Classic has a new outer skin from the older iPods which isnt as shiny but I think is more resistant to scratches.

Of course with 80GB of space you could never truly fill it up with songs(20,000) but with movies it is possible(just time consuming).

With the this new generation of iPods come new games which might add some excitment to your day.

The games are:

Vortex-(much like the older pong like game but with very good graphics and a better gameplay experience)

Klondike-Basically Solitare reworkwed

iPod Music Quiz: I personally love what Apple has done with the new version of iPod Quiz...this isnt just one game, it is 4 games under 1 title. The four quizzes are: TV Show Trivia, Music Trivia and Movie Trivia which are all just quizzes about modern day entertainment with all of them having four multiple choice answers for you to guess from, with points rewarded for each correct answer. The last game is Music Quiz 2(my favorite) which is a very cool way to quiz your knowledge about your iPod. You have to answer questions about the song titles, artists, albums and even release dates. There are multiple rounds and different bonus games at the end of each round to boost your points. All in all the games are 10/10 for me.

The only thing about the 80GB and 160GB iPods are that they have some lag time between operations. This being because they store information on a hard drive(like a computer) instead of a flash drive which is very fast data recall and is used for shuffles and nanos. I was fully aware of this at the time I bought my iPod so it didnt bother me one bit but I'm sure that some poeple who might of upgraded from a nano to a classic will be annoyed by the extra millaseconds that it takes to retrieve song information.

I think if anyone is looking to buy an iPod they should deffinatley look inot getting a Classic, not only is it very affordable($250CAN) but can be very useful and enteratining.
