what ipod to get

Please choose the appropriate forum for this topic. Thank you. I am looking into getting a new ipod, I just gave my old 10g 2gen to my brother and I am looking into getting the ipod mini or the 4gen ipod clickwheel.

What do you think I should get, ipod mini or clickwheel?

What is the better iPod?

Please help me decide

4th gen. Your music collection will grow exponentially, trust me, mine did. However, wait until after Macworld to make your descision. They always make big announcments there.

Get an ipod. The mini to me is a waste of money. Yes they are fasionable, but the 20, is small and holds about 4,000 more songs for $50 more dollars.

I say this because I work at Best Buy, and I sell Ipods. It breaks my heart when someone buys it because they come in colors, and their friends have them. (They are cute though, I will say that)

I say get the Mini..if you do a lot of sports or don't have a lot of music. Other than that get a regular ipod.

Like ham_man said your music will probably grow.

I hope that was helpful. Again this is just my opinion

I am also for getting the clickwheel iPod. I just can't justify the price for a measly 4GB of space. I agree with everything Red Monkey said as well.

I think the 20gb/40gb are the best deals, even if u dont have the songs for it. the mini isnt worth it compared 2 the 20/40gb models.

get a G3...Older, Cheaper, Exactly the same
(Had my 15GB with me when we went to an electronics store with a 20gig on to play around...i could not find any difference except the click wheel / touch wheel
