Do you want an ipod? Do you feel left out because your friends have one? I will tell you what iPod I recommend and why.
Lets take a look at the prices. You should find that the 16gb Nano is about $200. The Classic on the other hand is about $220 for the 80gb one, $250 for the 120gb one and $290 for the 160gb one.
The next thing to look at is the size of the iPod. You pay $200 for 16 gigabytes of storage. For $20 more you can get 64 gigabytes more storage. You can get 104 gigabytes of storage more than the nano for an extra $50. Finaly, you can get and extra 144 gigabytes of storage for an extra $80. Already it looks like that iPod Classic is in the lead.
Really it comes down to how much storage you want. If your going to spend $200 on a 16gb iPod, why not spend an extra $20 for a 80gb iPod. Even if you think you aren't going to use even 16gbs, you still might as well get the 80gb one just in case. And if 80gb isn't enough the deals get better from there.
So Should I get an iPod Nano or an iPod Classic? I say go for the Classic. Its worth the small amount of extra money.
