This iPod mini is the bomb! I went to the store to feel it, and it feels like a feather in your hand! Compared to the original iPod, this is very good. I would chose this over any mp3 player.
Pros:
Holds 1,000 songs
easy to sync
short charging time
easy to use click wheel
Cons:
short battery life
high pricetag
Original iPod issues solved!

I am a Windows user since Windows 3.1 and currently use Windows XP Pro/Home versions. So I wasnt sure how well the iPod Mini would work with Windows.
After I researched, read reviews and talked to people who own the original iPod. I ran out to the store to buy my new iPod Mini. The iPod Mini was released for purchase on Feb. 20th at 6PM (I was there
got the Blue one!!!).
Since the two and a half days Ive owned the iPod Mini, it has surpassed every expectation I had for it. The Mini comes with all cable connections for both the Mac and Windows, ear buds, a clip to carry the iPod Mini on your belt or pants pocket etc. and the iTunes software for both the Mac and Windows.
I charged the iPod Mini, connected it to my laptop using the USB 2.0 cable that came with the Mini and installed the software. The software is incredibly easy to use and when transferring about 1GB of music it took less then a couple of minutes wow.
The sound is amazing through the ear buds and in my car stereo using a Sony cassette adapter in my cars cassette deck. The ease of use is truly unbelievable, the features in the iPod Mini are probably more than Ill need, but its great to know if I do they are already there.
In summary, anything you may have heard about the original iPod as far as negative or other wish list items you can bet Apple has resolved every one of them with the new iPod Mini. Its unreal!!!
I will be giving iPod Minis as gifts to all the music lovers I know for sure.
Take a closer look at the silver iPod mini!

Can Touch This
In fact, all the features of iPod are still under your thumb.
Always striving for perfection, Apple engineers moved the iPods buttons under the wheel.
The iPod mini Click Wheel gives you the enhanced durability and sensitivity of the iPod Touch Wheel, with buttons underneath.
The Click Wheel takes best advantage of miniscule space and lets you scroll single handedly though 1,000 songs from your iTunes music collection. Youll find such thoughtful construction only from Apple.
Because try as they might, the competition cant touch this.
Oh, one other minor detail, you can choose your iPod mini in one of five trend-setting colors: silver, gold, green, pink, or blue (all shiny).

Autosync your iPod mini with Mac and Windows
iTunes 4 lets you organize your music on your Mac or Windows PC and automatically transfer it to iPod mini.
Whether youve ripped your CD collection to MP3, bought music from the iTunes Music Store or made your own track with GarageBand, you can take it with you wherever you go.
Your iPod mini includes both a FireWire and a USB 2.0 cable for high-speed transfer from your Mac or PC. In fact, you can move an entire album from your computer to your iPod mini in seconds flat.
With the industrys only true Auto-Sync, your iPod mini is always up-to-date, mirroring the latest changes youve made in iTunes. And if your collection on your computer is bigger than iPod mini, you can let iTunes automatically choose a selection of songs to fill it up.
Games, Calendar, Contacts & Notes
Behind the Click Wheel of your iPod mini await features that make it the worlds best digital music player. Listen to your music as you fall asleep, and wake up with music or an alarm.
Store a copy of your contacts, calendar and to-do lists on your iPod mini. Or keep anything from store restaurant reviews to nightlife guides, and news articles to exercise routines -- right at your fingertips.
iPod mini also includes four fun games you can play anywhere, a feature youre sure to appreciate the next time youre standing in line or waiting for someone.
You can even play your music as the soundtrack to the games -- Music Quiz, Solitaire, Brick and Parachute.
