"Great mp3 player with easy installation"
Pros: Easy installation to windows, bright color, colored click wheel, click wheel makes for simplicity, sound quality, good size LCD, good size hard drive, feels well built, can't scratch easily, iTunes
Cons: earbuds fall out of my ears easily, but no big deal.
Summary: The iPod Mini is a great little gadget! I love mine. The only time I looked at the manual was to read up on charging, do's and don'ts, and installing it to my PC. My point is that it is very easy to use! I love the bright colors, and color coordinating click wheel. It has a good size hard drive. Holds 6GB worth of music. That's 1500 AAC 128kbps songs. I experienced a smooth and simple installation with Windows XP. So, that's a plus. The unit itself feels well built with its aluminum anodized metal. It can't scratch easy. The mini comes with iTunes, which I absolutely love. It's simple to use. Apple presents their products very nicely. Everything is well organized and neat. The interface is simple. I figured it out within 5-10 minutes. The only gripe I have with the mini is that its earbuds keep falling out of my ear easy. They aren't really junky like everyone says. They sound good. They just fall out easy. That can tend to be annoying. But everything else is great. Overall, I say, for a beginner looking for a nice mp3 player at a fair price, go for the 6GB iPod Mini.
Oh, one last thing. I know this has nothing to do with the mini, but I'm sick of seeing those get free iPod things in the reviews. Back off. Sorry, but it is really annoying!!
