at the end you said it had double the battery life of the ipod mini but wasn’t it tested and said to have died at around 5 hours. So that should be 4 times as much. |

That was 3G, I would think. The 4G is supposed to be 12 hours. |

Well it’s smaller than the Mini, :think: Looks slick enough to me…a little more sophisticated actually. |

i’d take the carbon over the mini, but the full ipod over both.
20gig ipod>carbon>mini. |

20 Gigs is nice, I’ll admit. I don’t like the battery though. |

Depends on how quick is pretty quick. It’s lasts long enough for me. On a day that I listen to it a lot I usually just get to half full. :D Oh and this is a 1st generation preordered iPod from when they were first anounced. 😊 |
