Apple engineers squeezed all the best features of iPod into a case weighing just 3.6 ounces and smaller than any cell phone. iPod mini features an anodized aluminium case that resists stains and scratches. Like its (slightly) bigger brother, iPod mini gives you over 25 minutes of skip protection and lasts up to 8 hours on a single battery charge. So you won’t pay a penalty for miniaturization.

    iPod Mini well worth the bucks

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 9, 2004 | 12 out of 14 found this Apple iPod Mini - Blue review helpful

    Pros: Same quality of larger ipod, but smaller and lighter. Neat interface.

    Cons: Smaller disk size means being more choosy with 1000 songs, rather than 10,000

    The ipod mini is an amazing product. Albeit, the price may be a little affronting, it is well worth it once you start using it. The physical size of the player is twice the size of a flash model, but holds over 900 more songs than a flash model can..., and the flash models are a little too small to clip anywhere, and still be able to control with ease. The rechargable battery lasts a little longer in the mini than the 15 gig ipod, but time will tell how the battery will deteriorate. Over time, apple would be wise to allow WMA format to be played on ipods in general, if not to sell more ipods, just to hush the naysaying hippocrites who blast AAC as being inflexible. For now, ipods do not play wma, so don't buy one if you download from Napster or other pay sites. On the other hand, ipods interact with iTunes, a great jukebox for pc and macs that will allow you to burn any track you download into it, as per windows media player, which is very restrictive. Don't even wait. Get one while they're in stock. Read more Less

    Best MP3 Player Ever

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 13, 2004 | 4 out of 4 found this Apple iPod Mini - Blue review helpful

    Pros: Small, made by apple (great campany), and not expensive for what you get.

    Cons: Not many stores have it

    This is the best MP3 player I have ever seen. it is small, yet not too small, it has a large and high quality screen (however not as large and high quality screen as the full grown ipod). There has been many tests with the ipod mini one of which test...ed the anti-skip. It would not skip even with the hardest test. When the ipod mini was first inroduced in Janruary of 2004 there was supposedaly a shortage of ipod mini's, they were too popular to keep in stock. This is believed to be a lie from apple. (Apple is still however a very trusted company.) Apple said this to protect themself from loosing customers. The truth is that the ipod mini was first full of bugs such as the headphone jack was delicate and the volume didn't always work well which they needed time to fix. All ipod mini's baught today are fixed. If you hear a complaint about the ipod mini ask them when the baught it. If they baught it withen the first few months after the ipod mini was introduced then chances are that they got an ipod mini full of bugs which are now fixed. Ipods are the worlds leading MP3 player waighing about as much as a CD with the size of a buisness card. With its four games included it is the ultimate gadget. If you pruches an ipod at www.apple.com not only does it have free next day delivery but you can get it laser engraved for only $27.00 or if you buy the full grown ipod the ingraving is free. Ipods are inexpensive for what you get. If you compare and ipod $249 with over 1000 songs with some other MP3 player for $150 with about 100 songs then you are getting 10 times the storage that can also be used as a backup hard drive with 4 games. Ipods are worth it. trust me. Read more Less

It's safe to say that the iPod mini will become one of the best-selling gadgets of 2004. The hard part is deciding on a color! Read more
