Repti Chat – Computer and Technology

This portable player, the iPod is loaded to the public consciousness when it does not leave any time soon. Not that we think. Despite the huge pool of established competitors like Dell and Sony, who manufacture their own slick MP3 gadgets, the iPod is still probably the most popular and best-selling is a bunch. Think about buying an MP3 player, and I think you’re an instinctive reaction to at least consider, if you do not select an iPod.

When Apple Computers CEO Steve Jobs introduced the iPod Nano in San Francisco’s Moscone Center, it was immediately identified as the smallest member of the display-bearing iPod family and the successor of iPod mini (An updated version was released just seven months before the Nano).

compatible with both Mac and Windows computers, the iPod Nano comes in two colors, white and black. You can also choose the 2GB version ($ 199) or 4GB version ($ 249), which is a bit steep considering that the iPod mini at the same place for 4GB and 6GB models, respectively.

the iPod Nano’s storage drive is flashed-based, which means no moving parts (to reduce wear and tear and breakage potential), last longer, and the sound skips while jogging, cycling or crash happy at home as soon as hour. Due to the growing and capabilities as well as memory sticks, I would not be surprised if one day Apple will start to implement these technologies in a number of important products. But it has yet to write up.

The first thing they are likely to notice is that nanotechnology, as the name implies, is small. You are really nice to see an amazing little device this is, and my first thought was that a small pocket in my jeans and finally to serve a higher purpose. Nano measures three.5 “long, 1.6″ wide (smaller than a credit card size), and only 0.27 “thick (thinner than a AAA battery). Elegant and serene, Nano is characterized by the simple elegance of Apple fans know.

Yes, it is certainly a great looking little machine is largely due to the glossy, thin layer of acrylic on the surface. But the other side of the end of the sensitivity of the scratches and / or fingerprints (especially black version of the Nano). Weighs only 1.5 grams of Nanotechnology imagine moving over a flat surface, sneezing, even though I do not recommend this welfare factors.

Main features: Like all iPods, Nano, is primarily designed to play digital music, such as MP3 music. And, like its relatives, Nano will shine what it does best. According to my research, nanotechnology is exactly the same sound chip as the Mini, and as previously mentioned, the top overall quality is excellent.

included earbuds do a decent job to produce sound, although I prefer a high-end headphones use the listening experience. tinker with the equalizer settings also seems to create a distinctive sound settings, can be so fickle sound lovers there are some thing to laugh here.

The owners of earlier iPods should not be a dilemma to navigate user interface, such as choosing the songs, playlists, and are willing to use a touch-sensitive click -wheel is a user-friendly than ever before (but I hate these damn fingerprints!). Setting up and connecting to iTunes on the Mac and Windows machines was smooth and easy.

on the basis of information available on the Apple iPod Nano 2GB holds 500 songs, while whereas the 4GB version of the store about 1000, assuming that the average song is 4 minutes long and packed using the 128 kbps AAC encoding. And as the larger iPods, Nano recognizes songs encoded in the following formats:. MP3, AAC (AAC, and protected from the iTunes Music Store), AIFF and WAV

Unlike the iPod small, but, Nano sports color display as well as the exact same features as the pictures of the top-of-the-line iPod Photo. This could be a “just because we can,” an idea invented by engineers over in Cupertino, because I had a strange appearance, even if sharing my latest photos display, which is hardly the whole stamp.

but I admit it is a great feature to include in such a small device. Total ordinary organizational options, you can produce a slide (music and transition effects), and photographs categorized in any way. Nano to identify images in the following formats: JPEG, poison, PSD (Mac only), TIFF, BMP, and PNG. I take this occasion to note that the camera connector iPod Photo used to transfer photos directly from your digital camera, iPod Photo, does not work on iPod Nano. The Other available equipment from third parties, such as voice recorders and FM transmitters are not yet supported by Nano.

You’ll also find features that only exist on the iPod Nano, for example, World clock function, which allows you to see the local time throughout the world.

When the area (or the major international city), the clock on the screen. darkens at a graphic, or lighter, depending on what time of day it is really up to the rest of the area, which is convenient for frequent travelers. Do you want to Prank call your friends in Egypt three p.m. local time? iPod Nano can help! (Of course, do not accept this behavior, use this feature, so you do not accidentally call your friends in Egypt for 3 hours).

Other Nano-exclusive attributes screen lock, stopwatch . Displays a lock you can prepare your 4-digit combination to prevent other people through music and photos.

This would appear an effective approach to prevent potential thieves (or curious Exes), but because I have so many passwords and codes in my life to remember that I can do without. In addition to expensive gadgets, such as nanotechnology should be kept in a safe place anyway. stopwatch function is pretty neat, and lower your best lap time to time, or keep track of how long to keep the technical support that you hold.

Battery Life iPod Nano claims 14 hours of music playback, but the battery will increase when using the slideshow feature is the music playing in the background. Charging via the included USB 2.0 cable that connects to the dock connector on the bottom, it takes about an hour’s Nano and half of the 80% capacity, and three hours to get fully off .

At the moment, the iPod Nano is not able to Firewire. In my research I learned that the Nano Battery life seems permanently soldered to the device, which makes me question the feasibility (or even possible) for the future replacement of the battery. Information about this can be updated as it actually been found.

Delivery:
– USB 2.0 cable (USB 1.1). It connects via the dock connector, including Nano. NOTE: Not to be confused with the dock connector dock itself. iPod nano Dock is an accessory, which will cost an extra $ 29. USB 2.0,
nano transfer music from about 5 megabytes per second.
– iTunes software (Mac & PC)
– Earplugs headpones: They are white (and black iPod Nano)

CONS: High price
