IPOD

Ipod Overview

The Apple Ipod is very similar to a normal run of the mill MP3 player but has many additional features built into it. I shall try and to explain in a brief manor the workings of the Ipod and its files.

Ipod Hardware

These have two main forms form the flash memory version and the hard driver version, similar to the one found in your laptop or desktop just lots smaller. The recent sizing are 1Gb, 2Gb, 4G, these are the flash memory versions and 20Gb, 30Gb etc are obviously the hard disk versions.

Ipod files

The most common files you can use are MP3 files, there are also WAV files, AAC and AIFF. The best files to work with are te MP3 ones as converters are freely available and simple to use. Remember to avoid illegal download sites.

Ipod extras

The Ipod interface is simple and fast to use, you can also get the version to view music video files on a small screen but this is deemed unwatchable, never the less this is seen as a top electronic product and a seasonal must have.

Ipod phone

The latest in a long line of Apple products is the Ipod phone utilising the Ipod functionality and building in a phone, these were only available on the O2 network in the UK but are now available unlocked to access all networks.
