I wonder why too.

For you to buy the more expensive 1 ... oops, i mean bigger capacity wan

Marketing strategy..

I wonder why they only limit the colors according to the capacity.. only silver for the 2gb.. hmm.. what happened to white?

black is super nice, but only comes in 8gb, for that money can buy ipod video 30gb already man

guys jz wanna ask, hav u all install da new version of software??(1.1.1).....wat is it for???new user here....

I have no idea.. They keep on releasing updates and i just download them. Some say they're for good, some say not. But for me, its still the same..

updates are always released to improve the ipod's usability.
Some will help reduce power usage, some will help increase accessing speed, some will add functions to the ipod OS.. it really depends but it's 99% good for your iPod.

Don't hesitate to update your ipod's software.

Got 2 nano n 2 shuffle in annual dinner yesterday...
Any software to recommend?
Really couldnt find a good alternative to iTunes...
iTunes helps me rename all those chinese character files but Yamipod doesnt and end up with many restart when it cant play... the bad thing about iTunes is that I cant view chinese character...

Any other alternatives?

Those iSkin looks really good.. but darn expensive. wishing to get one set soon coz santa didnt give me..

No idea as im not that familiar with third party progs.. i just use itunes.. i heard from my friends that using third party progs may hang the whole ipod.. not really sure abt that though..

Hi all,

I'm using this IPOD Nano 2G 2GB here and I have some questions regarding the stock earphones and the preset EQs.

Apparently, using anyone of the preset EQs would result in quite a bit of clipping and distortion with the stock earphones. This happen throughout my entire collection of mp3s. Turning the EQ off improves them tremendously but the stock earphones are pretty bad in sound reproduction in my opinion. Not that there's any configurable EQs to compensate. I understand that these are not real EQs but rather distortions carefully and purposefully introduced into the reproduction to trick the brain into thinking an EQ is applied - physco acoustics.

Anyway I tried using the EQs with better earphones, the clipping and distortion seems lesser but its still there depending on the level of music on a certain volume.

So has anyone experienced this before with their IPODs on their stock earphones? Or is it a case of too high EQs being applied? Or is it better to leave the EQ off and rely on better earphones? Are there any settings that I might mistakenly turned on that could introduce the distortion?

Well if this is a genuine problem with my IPOD I might want to send it in for a checkup. But anyway, I'm getting a pair Sennheiser CX300 to better complement the IPOD. Any comments?

Thank you for your time.

David

just got my ipod nano 2g today, wow!!! what a blast!!!

btw, can i use my winamp for my Nano instead of Itunes??

Well, i have the same problem too. Whenever i turn on the EQ, the sound will be distorted. It will sound a lil upleasant.

I think this is a common problem with nanos. Their EQs sucks. Im using a pair of Sony MDR-EX71. Even with stock headphones, or some ciplak ones it still sounds the same. (OT) I had 2 creative mp3 players before and their EQs sounds good. Even when you tweak it really hard (custom EQ rocks!)

I've heard from many users that the sound distortion when using EQs are normal, especially when the volume passes the half-mark. So its best to off the EQ, as it would save the battery life too. And pair it with a good pair of earphones.

me : ipod nano 2gb 1st gen black

err do u mean to add n remove song from ur ipod? is that so, u can use winamp but must use ipod plugin.... but to remove song and add..i use yamipod... i put it in my ipod nano 2gb 1st gen so that..i can remove, add , and edit my songs on every pc that had usb port and doesnt have to install itunes..

my ipod's lcd screen cant be use anymore...it doesnt show any graphic or text anymore...just a white backlight....its very hard to make my ipod play songs coz i had to guess the menu... so.... what should i do? can the screen be replace? if can...where n how much?
