Great product

Posted by: from Baltimore on 05/22/2013This is a very good product. it allows me to pretty much do everything. Play music, movies, get directions etc. It has a learning curve as with most electronics but the features are wonderful and convenient. I would suggest purchasing insurance and buying a cover.

good i-pod

Posted by: from lansing,il on 05/21/2013It is used for my children's games and music. They have also downloaded apps so we can talk and text whenever there is a wi-fi connection. They can connect to the internet for homework and fun. Sometimes the connection of the calls aren't so great but I think it is the app we are using. Great for listening to music as well.

Great iPod for a first timer.
5
Posted by: from Oceanside, NY on 05/20/2013This product is a great for first time iPod users. It has easy and quick internet access, easy to buy itunes songs and apps. Has great sound & picture quality. Wish it was bigger in size rather than the 16 GB. But otherwise a cool gadget to own. Best when used with a good screen protector and rubber case to prevent screen breakage.
