FriedApple Posted October 29, 2004 Share Posted October 29, 2004 Well, I ordered mine. The thing that sold my wife was not that you can view pics on the iPod but you can hook it to your TV and have a slide show. We have a 14 month old and people (family) want to see pics of him all the time. So she thought this would be great. So she told me to give my Gen 2 to my 11 year old and get this one. I am not to hot on the price though as you can see. I got the 40 gig one btw.

Redestium Posted October 29, 2004 Share Posted October 29, 2004 I'd really like to see if the battery life holds true. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/236091-apple-ipod-photo/page/4/#findComment-584829011 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroChaos Veteran Posted October 29, 2004 Veteran Share Posted October 29, 2004 i doubt the battery life holds true...apple usually overestimates for most people, although a few do claim to get the full time....

Redestium Posted October 30, 2004 Share Posted October 30, 2004 Just got mine, too :D 584829991[/snapback] What reason made you blow that much money? It can't be because of the photo viewing can it? 60 gig + 15 hour battery life I can see being a boon, but photo viewing seems like a waste to me (maybe if they included a media reader to dump the images off it would be worthwhile).

Plus there are a few things I've been craving from the click wheel firmware that the mini didn't have (shuffle songs, multiple on-the-go playlists). Plus, I've been working on album art for all my music for a while now, so this just adds to the benefit. For me, at least, it makes some sense.

fuzzy_logic Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 I just got my first iPod today. It's a 20GB 4th Gen iPod. I have a question: do I have to calibrate the battery before I use it? What I did was to connect it to my Powerbook until the indicator said that the iPod is charged.

Just be sure to use up the entire battery power before you charge it again. That will give your battery a longer running-time. ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/236091-apple-ipod-photo/page/4/#findComment-584839007 Share on other sites More sharing options...
