The fourth iteration of Apple’s MP3 player, which now holds 20GB or 40GB of tunes depending on the model, is still the sleek and sexy iPod we all know and love. Besides slashing $100 off the same capacity as earlier models, Apple has revamped the navigation with a click wheel; improved the battery life by 50%; streamlined the menu functions; and lastly, become stingy on accessories.
Our Hi-Speed USB connection, powered by Intel ICH4 USB host, managed to transfer at 8MB/s on a Windows XP with Service Pack 2. On our iBook, FireWire came in 9MB/s. Interestingly, the PowerBook G4 1.33Ghz 17” finished last, crawling at 5MB/s. This may attribute to the FireWire chipset used in that particular laptop. On both PC and Mac, the iPod doubles as a removable hard drive that handles all file transfers. Third party software like Migo Personal for iPod also synchronizes data such as Outlook emails, Internet bookmarks, documents, and brings along your wallpaper, cookies and browsing history.
