Apple iPod nano 4 GB White (1st generation)

Beautiful piece of work, but not recommended for audio books!

I bought this item for its great looks, form factor and the Apple interface, but I've come to regret this choice as I primarily listen to audio books with this device. My primary issues with using this device for audio books are:
-1- Doesn't support DRM-protected Windows Media Audio (WMA) files!! That precludes me from downloading Overdrive books from my local library. Most devices at this price point support this feature and I wish Apple would too.
-2- I loose my bookmark whenever the unit is recharged (really inconvenient for books!!).
-3- I only get ~5 hrs of runtime between charges.

Also, the 'click-shift' mechanism for selecting files is hard to work with, and there have been a few technical glitches whereby all content on the iPod spuriously vanished.

Great product! It was exactly how it was described and I had no problems with the transaction at all. I bought this as a gift and he was very happy with it.

Love my nano!

I received my 4gb pink nano as a Christmas present last year and so far so GREAT!!! I have no complaints at all. My nano has withstood two teenage sons taking it from room to room, one 12 yr old daughter who goes horse riding listening to it and me, who takes it along to work and endures the bus ride home. Its always had a cover on it which I insist or they dont borrow it and for the longest time I kept the covering on the screen and dial but after 6 months my son removed them and still NO scratches and this nano is in pockets, purses, backpacks and sometimes just lying around, its been dropped I hate to say and still working like a charm. we love this little gadget of technology and this Christmas my 3 kids are getting their own so maybe mom can have hers back!! I would recommend it!!!!
