Much more elegant and not as bulky or expensive as other portable video players, although not as flexible in terms of content

My experience, most of the freeware ones can't rip any decent quality video, so you'll probably have to shell out afew bucks to get a decent one.

Another turner-offer is the video-out capability

MUST HAVE for all the family, great music, video and photo with tons of storage, great playback, it's a mobile entertainment dream.

They sell a product called Intervideo CD Copy 4 Platinum, which will rip video from your home DVD's and convert them to a format suitable for the iPod video

so if you are planning to go far remember to bring you labtop or spend for a charger, low battery life music-3hr+/- video-1hr+/-, conversion of music from pc to ipod is not consumer friendly, No video converter, face: scratch very easy- back: scratch and catch grease from your hand, a lot of lack time on control from screen to screen, black ipod comes with white accessories

The video is so clear and the sound is even better

The video on this device looks superb and i can organize my music tracks with no problem.

It takes a good while for QT pro to "export" the unsupported video to iPod size, yet it's worth the wait.

It is virtually bulletproof (there are some cool videos on the website) and you really can't even tell that it's on your iPod.

it's about two third thickness of old 60G, and it has 2.5 inch screen, it play awesome video

ipod video iz hot

the videos are great

Overall: I would highly recommend an Ipod Video to anybody who wants to store music and listen to it on the go without all those bulky CD

One drawback: the number of video shows available is limited

If you've succeeded in those two areas then the video should view GREAT!

Like Jobs said, the video is just an ADDITIONAL benefit of the new models

Others saw it and everyone was knocked out on how sharp and clear the video is

The screen may be small compared to some other portable video players but it has very crisp quality

I have gone through about 3 ipods but by far this one is my favorite, the videos and movies are clear and I love it

Good video quality

There are great video podcast to download

So if you need a gadget and $400 is affordable, I highly recommend IPod Video 60GB

I now have dozens of TV shows and movies ready for viewing on my Ipod, all with excellent video and sound quality, and all without having to pay a fee to Itunes

The video looks great, the audio sounds better than ever, and the click wheel is a nice feature, although I miss the touch sensitve buttons

The 5th Generation iPod 60 GB from Apple is the perfect video and music player for anyone with enough movies or music to fill it up.

That means you should expect a really cool video iPod by the same time next years IF they are successful with this video experiment

If you own the iphoto keep it because you have to go through a lot of garbage just to get video on the ipod to work and the ipod itself

If you have thousands and thousands of songs, love music videos and have the funds for it, I recommend the 60g iPod video.

There are also iPod A/V cables available that allow composite video and audio output, for connecting your iPod to your television
