I have a quick question!
I was looking on ebay and saw a decent deal on an ipod. The only thing that im worried about is that it says it is a fourth generation model. What does this mean? Were there differences between the different generations? Is one generation better than another?

Please help!

Does the ebay one look like a decent deal, or are there better places to get one?

The usual Apple prices are around $350. Anything below that is a deal. Just be careful of eBay scams, etc, etc.

The known problem for 4G is the Audio Defect, but that is mostly on the 40GB version.
