  Review summary: Apple's latest iPod gets video playback
  
  Verdict: While I think the iPod Video is a fantastic design and great upgrade to previous models, I think there are just too many shortcomings. Certainly, the upgrade of the technology (to now playback video), better design (thinner and slightly lighter), and ...

  Review summary: Apple introduced the 5th generation iPod on October 12, 2005. The new iPod has some nice improvements over the last version but for the most part it's the same iPod you already know, so we're not going to explore every detail in this review. Check out ...

  Apple iPod (60GB, video) Review - MP3 Players
  By James Kim
  
  Review summary: Get the affordable, sleek, and sexy 5G Apple iPod for its audio virtues. Although video looks great, poor video battery life and a relatively small screen hamper its appeal to video heads
  
  Pros: Incredibly thin and intuitive design, Beautiful LCD, Supports photo and video playback, Seamless integration with iTunes which boasts the world's biggest music and video catalog, Smooth video, Lots of extra features, such as a world clock, a stopwatch ...
  
  Cons: No extras included, such as a dock, AV cables or a power adapter, Poor battery life for video, Slight delay when playing video, No guarantee that your non-iTunes Music Store video will play on an iPod, even after using converted third-party software
  
  Verdict: Get the affordable, sleek, and sexy 5G Apple iPod for its audio virtues. Although video looks great, poor video battery life and a relatively small screen hamper its appeal to video heads.

  Review summary: Don't call it the Video iPod, the vPod, or anything that indicates that this is a video player. It's the new iPod, period. Though it does have video-playback capabilities, Apple has chosen to keep the iPod's focus on audio (for now). That said, video ...
  
  Pros: Video looks great on the sharp, clear screen. Slim design. Well-integrated with iTunes. Excellent new audio recording features
  
  Cons: Still no pan and zoom for photos. Audio recording requires adapter. Optional, proprietary Apple AV cable costs $20
  
  Verdict: It's the same excellent music player, but with the added bonuses of video support, audio recording capabilities, and enhanced audio quality.
