I own one and what i refer to ask "sucking" is the video part of this hybrid device. I am in no way against the concept and use of the ipod (ie all the people that say "rebel against the ipod so that we all don't become a nation of ignorant conformists"). I enjoy the audio features of the device and its user-friendly interface on a daily basis and was originally interested in the ipod 3G. I purchased it thinking "It's the same price, and video is a 'bonus'." So sure call me a hypocrite; I dont care.
What I imagine a lot of people don't notice about the iPod Video until they've bought it, is the battery life for videos. Isn't it something like 2 hours? With that kind of life, you can watch a few episodes of a TV show, and that's about it.
The iPod Video is meant to be used as an MP3 player, with the ability to play an MTV-style music video once in a while. It's not an actual video player.
by the way video from p2p is probally illegeal and you can get videora ipod coverter for free and convert almost anything
video player with 2 hours video play -_- come on....... LAME and the screen.... make it bigger please....
