obviously the 3rd gen

why?
- apple positioned the price well with their new nano (RM619 & RM829)
- new interface
- slick design
- can play video!! <-- this make 3rd gen the winner

In terms of outlook, 2nd gen may seem to be better ( to me, it is sleeker rclxms.gif )
In terms of battery usage, 2nd gen may be better coz it doesn't play video tongue.gif
Video may not be the important factor making 3rd gen Nano to become the winner. Ask urself frankly, do u wish to watch movies like Die Hard 4 or Transformer on a 2.5 inch iPod nano screen? Haha biggrin.gif

iPod video... not iPod movie.
i mean, you can use it to view short clips... TV series which are 40 minutes... imagine watching the latest Heroes episode on the way to work in the morning... and CSI Miami on the way back... on the PUTRA ?

that would totally rock!

Even if you don't watch movies.

Consider the changes in the interface, the 3rd Gen iPod has the reflection when displaying album art.

In addition, the main screen is split half displaying random album art.

Some ppl like the new interface, some hate it.

Just bought iPod 3rd gen. Very hard to hold on to due to its wafer thin player. Chrome finish back very hard to maintain. Only use for few days, scratch & smudges all over the back.

Everything else is brilliant. Too bad the 4gb only comes in silver.

Both audio quality so so only tongue.gif
but 3rd gen can play videos and the new interface is much nicer IMO

The vid playback is redundant to me at least. But to be honest? The audio playback on this is far from remarkable, the ipod mini was better but solidstate memory is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better than minidrives. heh
