A popular media device designed and marketed by apple computers. Considered to be the predessor to large capacity multimedia devices it is the most popular form of portable mp3 listening machines. Released in 2001 shortly after the return of CEO, Steve Jobs, the iPod has over 80% worldwide marketshare thanks in part to the device's wide spread advertising campaign. With many lacking features, it has become target to the "geek sub-culture" for ridicule and "lameness". However with such popularity iPod has become the world's most prelevlant portable multi-media device and hence has received brand association with all types of multi-media devices and mp3 players.

The iPod is often mistaken for a piece of shit. It's actually not that bad. Although:
1. It's pretty expensive.
2. It has excessive space.
3. A lot of people die from the iPod.
(1) Dude A: You have an iPod? How much did it cost?
Dude B: Everything I have.
(2) Dude A: That song is shit. Why don't you save space for better songs?
Dude B: It doesn't matter that I never listen to half the songs, I have 4 gigs of space.
(3) Dude A: WATCH OUT FOR THAT FALLING HELICOPTER!!!
Dude B: WHAT??!! I CAN'T HEAR YOU I'M LISTENING TO MY IPOD!

A very simple, easy to use music player. People often enjoy bashing on them saying other brands have x more features such as radio, voice recorder etc. Most people don't need all that BS and it makes things more complicated. The iPod sells very well because it does something very well, play music, and offers a very good user experience. The FM thing is really dumb, why would you need FM radio on your mp3 player, when in fact, it IS an MP3 PLAYER! Don't you want to play MP3's?? That's like buying a CD player so you can listen to the radio, wtf?
Also, it's true you pay the premium for an iPod for it's very nice aesthetic design. It's obviously superior than any other plastic piece of garbage. Everything else simply feels cheap, and looks cheap, and is packaged in tacky packaging. All of those combined give the iPod an excellent out of the box experience, and it feels nice in the palm of your hand.
iPod Owner: I love my iPod, it's so smooth and works great, although my hard drive ended up failing i'll simply drop it by the Apple Store, since I'm not cheap and actually bought an additional 2 years of service for it, they'll take care of it right away and I'll probably get a refurb immediately.
Creative Owner: Hey look! My ZEN makes creaky noises when you squeeze it!! Sweet! OH shit i broke it... :(

A small, portable device created by Apple that stores a large amount of MP3 files and can also be used to store other files. Well, that's what it used to be. Around Fall of 2004, they became THE must have fashion item. Now it's just carried around by everyone and has maybe 20-50 songs on a 60 GB model. Also, people complain about technical difficulties, because they're using it with a Windows computer. WHOOPS.
Random Hipster: Wow, you have an iPod?
Me: Yeah.
Random Hipster: Wow, me too! What kind?
Me: 15 GB model.
Random Hipster: Wow, I have a 60 GB model! How many songs do you have? I have 46!
Me: Mine ran out of space. I have 2934 songs.(True.)
Random Hipster: Dude, there aren't even that many songs in the world :(

Obviously, the iPod is a brand of portable media players designed and marketed by Apple Computer.
The term IPODABLE refers to the corresponding bundled hardware, software and accessories one can use with the iPod. The term can also be used when referencing other electronic or computer devices that are not Apple products but nonetheless have been designed to work specifically with the iPod.
This term was coined by Carl Landkammer, lunch buddy extraodinaire (when Debbie or I drive of course), frequent thrower of items into people's cube's and imaging enthusiast.
Carl: Is your CD player in your car iPodable?
Nicole: Huh?
Carl: Does your CD player in your car work with your iPod, is it iPodable?
Nicole: GREAT WORD! Yes. Yes it is.
