Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

A delight for the ears. A feast for the eyes. Though it's no bigger than a pack of playing cards and weighs in at just over 6 ounces, iPod Photo delivers a one-two sensory punch. Letting you carry an entire library of your favourite music -- up to 10,000 songs -- or enough photos -- as many as 25,000 -- to fill nearly 200 slide trays or cover nearly 5,000 square feet of wall space. Got a really big den?

iPod Photo displays 25 full-colour thumbnails at a time, which can be scrolled through the same way you scroll through song titles.

The new iPod Photo feature a razor sharp LCD display that lets you see your photos in vivid colour -- 65,536 colours, to be exact. And with its built-in backlighting, you'll be able to admire those photos indoors or out.

Take Your Photos for a Spin
Like its famous siblings, iPod Photo features the touch-sensitive Apple Click Wheel that's the envy of the industry. You'll use it to navigate iPod Photo's new menu. Now in living color, its easier to read than ever. That's thanks in part to the clarity of the display -- it offers 220 x 176-pixel resolution -- and in part to the new Myriad typeface. Spin the wheel to Music, and you can scroll effortlessly through dozens of playlists, hundreds of albums or thousand of songs.

Or highlight Photos. iPod Photo displays 25 full-colour thumbnails at a time. And you can scroll through them the same way you scroll through song titles. Quickly. Just spin the wheel to see more. And when you see a photo you'd like displayed all by its lonesome, just click the centre button and voila. No one will have to say "cheese" as long as you have iPod Photo around. Whether you're listening to tunes or checking out photos, you're sure to be all smiles.

Get Brownie Points for Sharing
If you'd like everyone else to smile right along with you, iPod Photo makes it easy. Sure, you could let them take the Click Wheel for a spin themselves, but here's a way to get extra points for style. Use the included AV cable to connect iPod Photo to a projector or TV. You can mesmerise friends and family with a glorious multimedia experience, offering them a breathtaking slideshow accompanied by the music you already have on your iPod Photo. Of course, you get to choose the songs, albums or playlists. And talk about smart, iPod Photo optimises your photos to fit on a standard (4:3) or widescreen (16:9) TV.

iTunes 4.7: Your Photo Passport
Wondering how you're going to get all your digital photographs into iPod Photo? iTunes 4.7. The new version lets you import your images directly into iPod Photo from a folder on the hard drive of your Mac or PC. Spent time organizing your photos using iPhoto on a Mac or either Adobe Photoshop Album 2.0 or Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0 on a PC? iTunes 4.7 rewards your diligence by importing the albums you've created in iPhoto or collections created in Album or Elements. You'll be able to choose them from the Photos menu on iPod Photo.

Wait, there's more. iPod Photo features even more robust Auto-Sync capabilities. Now, in addition to offering the industry's best music syncing, iTunes offers stellar photo syncing, as well. Update your photo collection by adding images or creating new albums, and the next time you connect iPod Photo to your Mac or PC using the included FireWire or USB 2.0 cables, iTunes 4.7 will automatically synchronise your photo collection.

And did we mention that iTunes 4.7 also autosyncs Album Art? It's true. The Album Art downloaded when you purchase music from the iTunes Music Store is transferred to iPod Photo along with the music. So while iPod Photo plays your tunes, you can enjoy the Album Art -- in colour, of course -- on the Now Playing screen.

Enjoy Improved Battery Life
Whether you're on a transcontinental flight or an extra long hike, if you plan to listen to music for hours and hours, iPod Photo has you covered. Fully charged, it lets you enjoy up to 15 hours of continuous music; or up to 5 hours of continuous slideshows with music. Use the iPod Photo Dock, FireWire or USB 2.0 cables to quickly charge the batteries.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Why the "photo" ipod is better.., 2 Feb 2005
    By Mr. J. N. Windsor (London, UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    I've just been reading the reviews for other mp3 players on here and they are a mixture of good and bad. As I write this review, there are 8 reviews posted, not one of them less than full 5 stars. I've got friends who slag off the ipod and claim that their mp3 player does the same and it was "£50 less" .. and "the desgin's alright for what i want" ... "i don't need the click wheel" ... "it's a fashion statement" blah blah blah. But at the end of the day you know that they're just trying to convince themselves that they don't want one but they really do.

    I bought an ipod photo because everywhere i could find in London had sold out of the standard 40gb ipod. I didn't think i'd want the extras, but they are great. It doesn't affect the battery life, has a great colour screen and it shows your album covers whilst playing the albums - i've nicked all my album images from amazon - simple drag and drop into itunes. Easy. I know this doesn't sound important but it really is good because it gives you back the one thing that is lost through mp3 players - the association you have with the music and the album image. Sitting on the tube, reminiscing about an old indie track from super furrys or whatever is vastly enhanced by being able to see pete fowler's "radiator" cover or Hypgnosis's "Dark side of the moon". Maybe it's just cos i'm a graphic designer - but it just works.

    5.0 out of 5 stars iPod means quality!, 3 Jan 2005
    By S. Lambert "steve" - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    Yes, its expensive, but you get what you pay. This piece of kit is pure quality, if you have ever held an iPod you'll know what I mean. Even the packaging is perfect, Apple know what people will pay for. I've not owned an iPod before but I am more than happy with my 40Gb model and would buy from Apple again.

    The iTunes software bundled with the pod leaves something to be desired, its good for organising your music but you really need something better if you want to do more with your tracks.
    A case (a cover and a pouch) is included which saves you some money buying one seperatly, again this is good quality.

    To sum up, a fantastic piece of quality kit. Yes, I've used the 'Q' word a lot, but buy one and you'll find out for yourself!!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars The iPod Photo is the future!!, 22 Feb 2005
    By A Customer
    The iPod Photo, is a fantastic machine. Reading one review suggesting iTunes is 'stupid arcane' software, annoyed me because this person had not checked their facts properly. First iTunes is very easy to operate, and also with the new iTunes 4.7.1 it makes it even easier to operate and use your iPod. Also with regular updates from the apple website where you can download software updates on to your iPod via a computer and it increases the performance of your iPod. You can also go to www.apple.com/support/iPod and you can see for yourself the fantastic functions the iPod can do. You also have contacts, notes and a calendar on the iPod which you can sync with your computer. Another very important function the iPod has is backing large files on to your iPod. I had two quicktime files both 5mb each and I simply dragged them on to my iPod and it was a piece of cake.
    If your into audio books the iPod has software for audio books as well.
    Apple have fixed the problem regarding charging the battery on the iPod. When the iPod is connected to a computer the iPod battery starts charging. If you charge the iPod for about 2 hours, the battery is 80% charged.
    I have nothing against anybody writing a review, but they should make sure they have the facts first before stating their opinion on a product.
