Do a little shopping around and you are sure to find a better price.

I would say to get this iPod if you want a reasonable price, a good amount of media on it, and all the basic features.

For example, the "classic" ipod offers more storage (and has good sale prices), but the con is the size.

Great product and AMAZON has the best price I've found so far.

The color is fabulous, if you get an 8 GB you can choose from a variety of vivid colors

very good picture and color. have absolutely no problems

i think the 3rd gen is the best, because you can watch movies, it's easy to use, and comes in adorable colors

This product is the best in the world I love to have it, I will buy it again if I have more money.

the product is cool even though i only watched the video of it

Excelent product and i like design and mini video feature

Although the product when I received it had a small issue that seemed to have disappeared or has become rare but other than that it works just like the original one I had

The size is wonderful-it fits right in my pocket when I'm on the go

But the size of this was so perfect and it would bother me when I was skating

When this ipod was released, I purchased one because it seemed the perfect compromise - able to handle both music and video in a small, affordable size

love this size for listening when I'm out walking the dog

But the size of this was so perfect and it would bother me when I was skating

The iPod was in great condition and is working perfectly!

only thing i dont like is apple itunes software, as it don't allow me to add songs from friends systems, if i have to format my system then i have to take the backup of my itunes library too, other wise i will be ended up losing the complete music files and video's on ipod

Of course my concern was the condition it might be

I was in disbelief when I found this model ipod in good condition for 40

The sound quality is even better than the old Mini and the video quality is better (if smaller) than the Ipod Video.

Great user interface, very fast search, great video quality and all this in a very small piece of

But the sound quality, picture, and design of this iPod is amazing.

This product had great quality, it went through so much and it still worked perfectly

REALLY DISAPPOINTED as for the cost I expected better.

After a bit of poking around, we found an excellent deal on a new Ipod nano.

Well, the 15 year old loves her nano...many more cool features that were not on her mp3

I just love my ipod nano, it's the cutest little mp3 player..

The battery life on this (even used) is way better then my nano 5th generation.[Edited July 4, 2017

One thing though, the iPod nano is extremely slim and I would not recommend that clumsy people who drop things a lot buy it, because I borrowed a friend's iPod before and the screen went bust because it got a minor shock, while i was driving.

The tweaks to the interface is the main reason I bought another IPod in the same year and having it on something that is as portable as the 3g nano is

It's a great size and shape, really easy to use, and has tons of wonderful features that make it still seem fresh and relevant in the realm of nearly infinite choices among MP3 players(even in 2010, the age of the iPhone 4 and Touch 3G).If you are looking for a good value but don't want to spend the $150+ that you'd need for a current generation Apple product with similar storage and features, don't look farther than the third-generation Nano

Great value - super quick shipping - an exceptional value for the product purchased.

Conversely, the Sansa View is perhaps the best value but the video screen and sound quality is less attractive than either two.

I think it is a good value for the consumers; the price is not a lot for what the quality it has.

Only problem the screen has a little place on it that is not clear

You quickly forget you're watching on a 2 inch screen as the screen is so sharp, bright and clear

The screen is so bright and it is easy to watch a tv show on it.

The screen is smallish, though I would argue still adequate.

I love the new features of the 3g ipod, such as coverflow, video, and cuteness.

Unless you can afford a 16 or 32 GB iPod Touch or demand some of the missing features offered by the competition, go with

Apple's software gives you limited direct control over your music and few file options.

For years, Sony devices suffered from proprietary audio formats and both annoying and unethical software limitations.

Maybe Apple will upgrade its software preventing this fault.

But its native software is even worse and the company has acquired a reputation for high failure rates.
