          This item arrived promptly and is being enjoyed by my daughter. My husband even purchased the 8gb nano for me and himself when I told him the great price for the 4gb I got her. So it was a very Merry Christmas in our house.
          I will definitely purchase other items in the future.

            Comments about Apple iPod nano 3rd Gen 4GB (Silver):

            Obviously, the iPod is a world-renowned product. This version, the 3rd Gen nano, is perfect. Its size is small enough to carry around comfortably in a pocket but not so small that it is easily broken. I have bought this iPod for three of my daughters. It works flawlessly. One caveat is that the back is easily scratched, so I would recommend picking up an inexpensive iPod case.

                    Bought the ipod from B&H [...]The product is very convenient to use--I stored over 300 (MP3) songs and several dozen pictures. It synchronizes to the songs and pictures that are in my iMac. I had to download both new versions of iTunes and Quicktime (about 30 megs each) to get it to work. But it is perfect now. Apple stuff is very easy to use.

                                I bought the nano for use on the beach. Since, I've found it great for many other places as well, such as around home relaxing or doing the daily chores and while traveling on the train. The size/capacity is great for me as I wanted to use it for music only and it stores most of my favorite CDs with room to spare for new music purchases. The nano is also great as you can easily navigate through all your music and select what you're in the mood for at the time.

                                      I bought this Ipod Nano as a birthday gift for my 18 year old. It is the best Ipod ever--convenient to use and to carry--no complaints.
