Cons
    Terrible battery life, Breaks easily

I was one of the first people to buy the ipod mini when it first came out - 1st Gen. Ok, so it is EXTREMELY popular and cool to have. iPods are like a status symbol or something. So it's got the coolness, prettiness and innovator thing down. But in terms of function, this darn thing does not compare to other mp3s on the market. First, I've had to replace this ipod 3x!!! Granted I've dropped it a couple of times, but who hasnt dropped their cell phone or other gadgets once or twice? But they dont break. iPods do. Very fragile things. Battery life sucks. It's supposed to last like 4 hours, but now it's down to 1/2 hour or something crazy like that. Had this now for a few years. No more warranty so I can't replace it. Going to buy a new mp3 down the line.

Sadly, given all it's faults, i'll probably buy another apple ipod...cuz it's slim, pretty and very cool...and i already have ALL my songs on iTunes...and to lazy to switch over if I have to.
