And so it may struggle to find a position in the market. However
The massive storage capacity should be ...
EQ control is limited
The plastic screen is susceptible to scratching
And the only way to move media on and off the device is through iTunes
But marred by hard disk lag issues
Sound quality still
At best
Mediocre
Cover Flow a case of form over function
New accessories required for video out
Some older iPod video accessories may not be compatible
Users are required to use the latest version of iTunes
Sluggish/balky menus

The iPod Classic is just like the fifth-generation iPod with video, only slimmer, tougher, and injected with a more visually rich graphical user interface.
Video output now requires a proprietary cable; audio quality has not improved; some older iPod video accessories may not be compatible; users are required to use the latest version of iTunes, which may not work on some older computer systems.
The iPod Classic is a refinement of the formula that put the iPod on the map. Few can match its combination of storage capacity, battery life, and advanced user interface.
A superior update to Apple’s 2005 and 2006 hard-disk based iPods, featuring cleaner audio, crisper video, better storage capacity and greater than promised battery performance at last year’s prices. Available in silver or black versions, ...
equently, there is a lot to like about the iPod classic. More power efficient than its predecessors and equipped with an 80GB ($249) or 160GB ($349) hard disk, it unquestionably delivers markedly superior value for the dollar than what it replaces. The...

Abstract: Other manufacturers appear to have given up on hard disk-based MP3 players, but not Apple. The latest iPod Classic has a huge 160GB capacity, yet it's no thicker than three £1 coins thanks to its single-platter 1.8in hard disk. You might think the ...
Abstract: If your only purpose in buying a new iPod is to play music, then the classic is for you. No fancy gimmicks here: just 120GB of hard disk, a 2.5in colour screen and a Click Wheel. Theres enough room on here to store even the beefiest of digital music c...
