I really love this thing...This thing is much better than the current Nano...The only thing I'd like more of is memory but at 16GB I've got 2500 MP3z on it and still have about 3gigs left...I transcoded a Video to an MP4 at the Nano's resolution and it plays fine. I'm not sure why they decided to put the headphone jack on the bottom but it doesn't really matter as I just drop it in my pocket upside down (jack up). You'll want to get a protective case for it to keep it nice looking. Battery life is outstanding and I power a full size over the ear pair of Audio Technica WS-99 headphones with it (Max or near max volume output) and audio is OK...I'm adding an inline amp to beef up the audio some with the full size headphones but on max or near max now it does a good job. There's tons of features in this thing and it shoots nice 640x480 video (Something the current Nano does not do). Only downside to this player is like other Apple players the battery was not designed to be user replaceable. Infact this one not only requires extensive disassembly of the player to get the battery out but also requires you to desolder the old battery and resolder the new one...But there are service places that will replace the battery for you for around 50 to 60 bucks...But the battery should last for years. By the way it appears Apple changed something in this Nano...I didn't use Itunes with my Gen4 Ipod Photo but instead used Sharepod or Anapod software to transfer MP3z...But they don't work correctly with this Gen5 Nano so I had to load the latest Itunes...That works great with the Ipod Nano Gen5 and it seems Apple improved Itunes a lot since the last time I used it which was Itunes 5 which totally hosed my WinXP years ago...But the new version of Itunes works great with the Nano Gen5 and works fine on my Windows 7 PC. Transfer speed is really quite fast as well considering it's USB 2.0. I am happy with my decision to buy the Ipod Nano Gen5 and am pretty sure if you get a good one you'll be happy with it as well...Super small and light weight with an incredible amount of features.Read full review
I wanted the 5th Generation Purple (16GB) because of all it's features. I have not tried the video camera function yet, but am looking forward to trying it out. I do wish this unit had maybe a 32GB storage, but I think I can get by with 16GB. I like the unit because it is small, but yet big enough to handle and manuver through the menues. I like the 5th gen much better than the 6th gen because the 6th gen is a lot smaller and has a touch screen. My fingers aren't that small and found it difficult to use. Overall, I am very pleased with my puchase.
Very rugged, reliable and functional iPod which is small and lightweight, with great nuances like am/fm radio, built-in speaker (doesn't sound stellar, but cool nonetheless...) and a selectable audio crossfade feature so you can fool everybody into thinking you are a great DJ! And, no hard-drive for content storage means no moving parts to break or suck up the battery life. You really can't go wrong with a gen 5 nano, unless you continually lose them like me!

This product is fantastic for storing your music. The differance from my last Ipod is like night and day, functions are easy to use, the sound clarity is off the charts and your are able to color match your ipod to what you are most likely to use it with. Myself is a perfect match to my motorcycle. I haven't had a chance to use the pedometer yet but I'm sure it will work out to the same standard as what the product states. In closing you can have 1500 songs and still have the ability to store more of your favorite items, weather it is more music, video, pics or contacts, 16gb is perfect size.
As a grandmother I do not know all about technology. I purchased this iPod nano for my granddaughter for a gift. This item has a radio, camera, video camera, she can also download all her music(a must for a 13 year old). I was hesitant to buy used but could not afford a new one, everything worked excellently on it. She was thrilled at x-mas and in no time was taking pictures and video taping.
