Apple iPod mini First Gen. Silver (4 GB, M9160LL/A) MP3 Player
Consumer Rating
Price Range
$0 - $0
Product Description
Apple engineers squeezed all the best features of iPod into a case weighing just 3.6 ounces and smaller than any cell phone. iPod mini features an anodized aluminium case that resists stains and scratches. The case weighs practically nothing, but protects iPod mini in your pocket, purse or backpack. Recessed in the case to keep its surface pristine wherever you lay it, the 1.67 inch (diagonal) backlit screen displays full song names and more. Like its (slightly) bigger brother, iPod mini gives you over 25 minutes of skip protection and lasts up to 8 hours on a single battery charge. So you wont pay a penalty for miniaturization.

It seems like everybody has an iPod, but there is a reason for that.

No brainer. If you want an MP3 player go with an iPod, they make one for everybody, but the mini is a great player for the bucks you spend.

Price, Price, Only 4 gigs rather than 5 for standard smaller MP3 players
