    Apple iPod Video 60 GB White MA003LL/A (5th Generation) (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

    • It's great, clicks on and off with ease, allows access to all controls, protects screen and click wheel, and protects the iPod from impact
    • The screen is beautiful even though small and the battery holds plenty of playing time
    • (And I had to swap cables on my dock***.)Some observations:The screen is very bright when you turn the backlight on and leave it on, it's very dim if you don't (probably how they
    • However, I've noticed (as has pretty much everyone else) that the screen gets scratches if you so much as look at it sideways
    • The screen scratches very easily (like with your fingernail).
    • The Mac people love to talk about the PC's "Blue Screen of Death", well, this Apple product has the "Black Apple of Death"
    • wow, the screen has some very high resolution and everything looks really sharp with very smooth playback.
    • By May of last year the screen died and the ipod was replaced with a refurbished model even though I had paid five months before for a NEW one
    • The iPod is beautiful, but the back's chrome finish is prone to scratches, and the screen can become scratched as well
    • But if I were you, I would buy a case that protects the iPod and the delicate screen
    • The screen scratches very easily (like with your fingernail).
    • You need to get a sense as to just how portable it really is, whether it's solid enough for the journey, and, in the case of the iPod with video, just how good the screen really is under various light conditions
    • Apple has obviously decided -- at least for the iPod -- to sacrifice optimal screen size for portability
    • I never got anything near the screen, I only used one of those silk sunglass polishers to clean the screen, and I was oh-so-careful with it
    • So with one mistake click I could erase the songs on my ipod and replace them with songs that happen to be in my library at the time.2.Buy a case for your Ipod the screen gets scratched by anything, before purchase I heard this and just figured "those people probably aren't being careful"
    • There seems to be quite a bit more screen protection inherent in this iPod/video's design (and it is, after, considerably thicker than the nano, but still thin -- the 60 GB version is as thin as the 4th generation's 20 GB model, and the 30 GB is 30% thinner than that).Third, the screen is great
    • The OS is pretty friendly, there are many perks like 25 Most played, Games, Screen Lock and the wide variety of EQ's
    • (And I had to swap cables on my dock***.)Some observations:The screen is very bright when you turn the backlight on and leave it on, it's very dim if you don't (probably how they
    • (The PSP's larger screen is a wonder, both for games and movies
    • The screen is the perfect size for travelling and with a separately purchased case, the screen is protected from scratches
    • The iPod is beautiful, but the back's chrome finish is prone to scratches, and the screen can become scratched as well
    • you NEED a hard case that completely covers the screen, or one of the sticky screen protectors.-Video Playback
    • Cons:-Screen
    • The screen is clean and clear and shows just a few small scratches -- only noticeable because I was looking for them.
