It's as though it's glued to the case. No movement whatsoever.

See how damn good the original iPod looks. The non-moving touchwheel and dedicated, well-built buttons haven't been matched by any iPod generation since.

2G 20GB iPod - my favorite design, almost no flaws or bugs, sold in the days when Apple and iPod meant quality. it's brand new, bought it new in box last week. it sounds better than the 5G iPod using Senn HD600 straight out of the headphone jack - crisper highs, better mids, less slurred lows. it's so old I had a tough time finding anyone who still sells a case for it, but found the iSee on clearance, arriving next week.

3G 20GB iPod - worst design ever! worst engineering ever! worst battery life ever! latest firmware still has some bugs, like it forgets my setting after going to deep sleep. all this thing is good for is a firewire external drive.

4G 30GB color - a much needed improvement, notable for the color screen and photos, but not much else. well, maybe except for the distortion issue (though I've never experienced it).

5G 50GB iPod - if it had the buttons like the 1G/2G iPod, it'd be my favorite design. i'm not that big a fan of the click wheel, especially with Apple's in-house wheel that doesn't feel good compared to the old ones. the firmware is still full of bugs, which Apple will fix in late 2006 with the 6G iPod

iPod nano 4GB - everything about it is perfect about it except battery life (and the butter soft scratch-magnet plastic). flash memory and it still can't get 10 hours of battery life in real use.

I can't bring myself to sell the 3G and 4G because I'd end up losing money compared to what I paid.

wow, a 50 gb 5g? where'd u get that

and nice ipod collection- where's the minis? where????

if you didn't like the 3g one why didn't you return it? and why do you continue to buy the new ipods even though you don't like the click wheel design?

5GEN is my first ipod,I don't like ipod actually till got my 5gen...

Apparently the 2G had a very noisy audio circuitry (this from a leading earphone vendor's engineers).

I finally grew tired of the silicone skin and fussing with the BSE and IS covers so I ordered a metal skin from ebay. The inside is very snug with a springy, thin black lining that the packaging claims is neoprene (The branding on my package was by a company called PDair, btw.). Covering the wheel is Power Support Crystal Shielding. The bottom leaves room for Apple/Sik plugs and large Shure plugs, so I'm pretty satisfied.

OK, so we're not gonna win any races... but what a trip...
