Classic vs. 5.5 Generation: So, besides the 100 dollar price difference what should I consider before I choose the classic over the 5.5?

Don't be sad, I actually prefer the 5.5 generation over the classic. I ended up keeping mine instead of getting a classic. Its much zippier in navigating, especially if you have a lot of videos and the click wheel works much smoother. All in all the 5.5 generation is my favorite thus far.

Yes. Just press down on the home button (depressed area at bottom of the screen). The 5th Generation is 5 times better than the 4th and worth 5 times more. It has just one problem: short battery life (esp. when loaded up with apps). Apple definitely needs to make that one improvement in the next model. Presently, I get no more than 2 hours. If I could do it again, I would go to the slightly thicker 32GB model, since the battery is likely to be bigger. All models that I own (2nd gen, two 4th gens, and the 5th gen. have proven indestructible and problem-free.

If I were buying, I'd go for the EM10 for $100 more. While the 5 is great, the 10's improvements are worth the money.

Just remember though, this 900 is about 150 or 200 cheaper than the 901 with the atom. Kinda depends on what you want to use it for. Frankly, I ordered one instead of the 7 inch, because of the larger screen and more ram. I am not interested in xp. I'm getting it for size, speed, and cloud computing. Also note, they have now changed the description to Intel Mobile. The atom was obviously a mistake on their part.

thank you for posting. I had the same question about how the classic compares to the ultra, in considering it as a christmas gift for my husband. this was exactly what I needed! The Ultra, it is!

Get the plus. You can decide later on to purchase a second one to link with it. Totally worth it. I have a classic as well and the plus is newer model and sounds better. Its a little bigger and louder, and longer battery life.

I am really not familiar with the old models, but after checking deeply comparing other mp3 and also the X3, I chooses the X5. after using it I am very satisfy with it, remarkably good sound, 256gb with extra memory cards and quality built and design. I think it worth the extra cash for it. Strongly recommended.

Overall there is no difference with the exception of graphics. However, there isn't much of a difference in graphics. Whatever version you decide to get it will be the same.

Its great, but there is a newer version out. If you don't need the newer version, then this is the best for the price($700)

The 5th generation has a better display when compared to the specs of the 4th - I find the 4th to have a great display though. The 5th generation has a faster processor (A5 chip-this is not as fast as the most current A6 processor) and RAM (512mb) whereas the 4th generation has a slower chip/processor (A4) and 256mb of RAM. The size is a difference as well as the 5th generation has a 4 inch display making it slightly larger (longer) than the 4th generation. The cameras on the 5th generation are 5 megapixel (rear) and 1.7 megapixel (front facing) while the 4th generation cameras are &lt;1 megapixel (rear) and VGA (front facing). Hope that cleared things up a bit for you! And I hope I got all the differences right :D

The one in your link is a newer version, higher power, difference design. Anyhow, it is depends, which design you like.

The colors are different, I think.If you google pics of each generation, it might help.The size and shapes may differ as well.The older gen was more square than the 4th and 5th

I have no idea, I went for the 25 because at the time I ordered it, it was $16 with free shipping. Looks like they raised the price to $19.99. The 25 works great for me, but if the 50 is a better deal then go for it.

I have NOT used a 100. My educated "guess" would be, owing to the feature set in particular (SBM, et al) that the edge would go to the newer, slightly "beefier" 100. That being said, I'm not sure that in a familiar environment, under ideal conditions, anybody would find telling the two apart would be particularly easy. It's an equivocal attempt at an answer, but I suspect the real question is "Is the 100 worth difference in price?" Only you can divine that answer for yourself. Shop carefully, don't pull the trigger on anything that does not have a generous return option and (if possible) audition them side by side.....

The nano's are more reliable than the Classic versions. My old 60GB failed 3 times over the course of 4yrs while my 2nd gen Nano has never failed and I've had it for 3yrs. I have this 120GB Classic now though and it's been going strong for 6 months.

As a mater of fact, I talked to the company today. You can find the comparison on the Sharp sight but there is more to it. First the Dynamic contrast is 15000:1 for the 92 and 10000:1 for the 64, making the 92 much better. The 92 came out Feb 07 while the 64 came out Aug 07. Sure the 64 is newer, but the 92 has the contrast. The 92 has another level of backlight (the ambilight function) kind of like a table light with a pull cord, full once more and get a brighter light. You get the picture. 92 has detachable speakers 64 does not. DVI-I conection (for a computer) on the 92 where the 64 has RGB. and lastly, all connections for the 92 are in back while 64 has some on the side. As I said, there is a comparison chart found on the Sharp site. I'll be buying the 92, sure it's about $700 more but it's worth it!
