Need a iPod for the gym..whats best for me?

[ben_p]

Dont need more than 8gb, just want to play music, small the better, must have a screen so i can see what songs im playing lol.

Best (high street shop) and model needed (for what i want)

 

[ben_p]

From a quick search i think i want a "nano" LOL. stupid name.

You can get solid state players cheaper than the nano fella.

the new nano, they do it quite afew colours, all high street shops are priced pretty much the same with ipods;

hmm seen a touch, think it may be too bulky for the gym, but could use it in the car and it has wi-fi

8gb is £129.00

Nano is £109...

I got a 80gb classic for the gym, it's not that big at all tbh. My bro takes a 30gb to his gym (it's the same size) he has no probs either.

All mine break when I use them for gym/running etc, the hard disk models can be fragile.

i dotn really do that much cario, but i know it will fall out of my joggers when on a bench.

Those arm band things suck ass too.

maybe il duct tape it to my rib cage..

Forget Ipod's lol... Why not try this that I have:

http://www.dixons.co.uk/martprd/sto...roduct&fm=undefined&sm=undefined&tm=undefined

I have had about 5 or 6 different mp3 players including Ipod Video etc.. and the Sony has far better sound quality imho & has bluetooth which is brilliant for going to the Gym. I use that one when at the Gym myself and have never had a problem with it & cuss its bluetooth there's no wires interfering with your workout . You can also control most operations via the included bluetooth Headphones, so you wouldn't have to take the unit out of your pocket while you work out

Buy the Touch or the Nano, both good players. Obviously you get more with the Touch including wifi net browsing but you may not like the size. It's not huge though.

 

[ben_p]

just typing on my new iPod touch, love it

 

[sneeks]

Good choice

I use my iPhone browser to post here often. Doing so now.

 

[Jonesy]

just get the older version 8gb nano. Sure they are well cheap now. I have an iphone but its too chunky for my pocket at the gym prefer the nano.

wtf? when do you ever run or go to the gym. Possibly in the days of walkmans !! lol

 

[Rasclart]

Nano for gym use. Touch is WAYYY too bulky imo

 

[ben_p]

shush u!

 

[Justin]

iTouch is awesome.. iPhone is awesomer

Forget Ipod's lol..

lol indeed.



Forget iPods.. Eeeks

If you lined up every single MP3 player in the world.. in a long line.. on average... every 4 players you come across, 3 would be an iPod

Woooooooooooooooo.

lol thats because I don't fellow the crowd:rasp:. I think Ipods are great (I still have my Ipod Video lol), but imho there are better sounding mp3 players out there (which is what its all about!). The Sony A828 which I have now has fantastic sound and is easily the best sounding mp3 player I have owned so far & has the added feature of being Bluetooth . Yes you could spend £££'s on really good headphones, but as standard and out of the box the A828 has 2 sets of high quality headphones (Sony DR-BT21G & the Ear Bud Earphones). Put it this way, even without using any EQ settings or any other sounding options. The A828 sounds better than a Ipod with everything on full imho.

I just think that people tend to go for the market leader without trying other players out there.
