ds (12) has just bought an ipod nano and is in love with it.

OK, don't do gym as have concept II rower in the office and I use that (honest guv) with CD player blasting.

What's the damn difference between shuffle, nano etc?? Am I right in thinking tis updated walkman thingy so you can have with earphones or dock/speakers?

Which is best to get?

Cost?

Now, how do you get the tunes onto it?

I just explained how to get the tunes on in Columbia's thread

pamplemousse · 19/11/2007 11:48

Apparently (I'm not sure as have been asking the same q also as am interested in getting an mp3 player) a nano has a screen so you can choose the music you want and a fairly large memory. A shuffle is smaller physically and memory wise and just plays randomly what you have on it.
No idea what a dock is though obviously have more q's for dp when he gets home!
HTH???!

Ooh yes that does help, Ms. Grapefruit

Thankyou and I am relieved not to be the only techno luddite around here!
