iPod

The worst piece of technology that is around today. I have used my cousin's iPod, just to look around, and I can say, personally, it really have some flaws. Here they are:

1. The scroll pad goes too fast. If you want to select a song, be prepared to wait for 5 minutes to attempt to select it, since it goes too fast.

2. The fact that there is so many. There is the 1 gig, 2 gig, 4 gig, 8 gig, 30 gig, and an 80 gig. Now, say before the 30 gig came out, you bought the 8 gig. Now you are stuck with that until you can fork up $250 just to buy it. Also, the 2 gigs are $150. I have an Icetech Keo, that has the same space,, and cost me only $100, and works just as well.

3. The iPod shuffle is really not innovative. It just makes going through music harder. You have no clue what song you are currently on, and the fact that it is smaller means it is harder to find when it is lost.

4. The 30 gig and the 80 gig are really clunky and bulky. If you attempt to fit it in your pocket, it will probably barely fit. Also, who needs 20,000 songs on an 80 gig? Or who has that many, as a matter of fact?

5. Apple makes it sound like it is the only mp3 player out there. But instead, they fail at that. My Icetech Keo can play music as well as play videos, view pictures, play games, listen to the radio, have a phone book, record and play back sounds, and view documents. What can an iPod do? Play music, play videos (which you have to dish out $250 for), and play pointless games, like what is this song, like you don't know any of the songs you put on it.

As you can see, I despise it, because Apple acts like it is the only one out there, but is really shitty.

Yea, I didn't buy an iPod. I bought an IceTech Keo at http://www.icetechusa.com/, and it works as fine, if not better than an iPod.
