All resources about Ipod

Apple advertised 14 hours of battery life for the 30 GB model. That’s for music, of course. That and provided that you play it at about ¼ volume.

At ¾ volume, the new iPod can be trusted to play and play for six hours straight without any problems before it gets into the “red” colored section of the battery indicator. That’s far from what has been advertised but for most people, that seems to be enough. For what it’s worth, the 60 GB model is rated by Apple for 20 hours of life (that’s 3 hours worth of video playback).


What About those Nasty Scratches?

People have been talking about crazy scratching on the iPod nanos. Now that the new iPod is constructed in much the same way and comes in black to boot, people are asking if they’d have to worry about nasty scratches with this new model. Well, Apply has included a soft carrying case with this model. That should take care of it. Black looks really snazzy, but if you’re more worried about scratches on your iPod than looking cool, you might want to get the white one as scratches on a white surface are less obvious.
