Software Included: iTunes for Mac and Windows
Maximum Number of Songs: 1500
Strengths: Great product, very portable, easy to use. Has a large display, which a lot of mp3 players do not have.
Weakness: Set up can be annoying. I seem to have to recharge it all the time.
I would recommend this product. It holds a ton of songs, it is easy to scroll through the music and you can setup your own playlists.
Strengths: Fab sound. Small and lightweight
Weakness: None found yet!
This little thing is fantastic! Have been holding out on buying an ipod now for about a year - but with the new 6GB model - it's just the right size. I don't have 10,000 songs that I listen to - generally listen to the songs I like over and over......so didn't want to spend the $ on the 20 and 40 GB models. Downloaded my music the day I got it and haven't looked back since!!
Strengths: Ease of use. Size.
Weakness: Cost of accessories.
It is very easy and uses logical motions to use and control. You can group music by type, artists, alphabetically, etc. It is a great size to transport. There are many accessories available from many vendors, so you will spend more on accessories than the iPod itself.
Strengths: On time shipping, easy to operate.
Weakness: To fragile for portable use.
I returned my son's ipod mini to Apple for repair within two weeks of ownership. Apple wanted $205 to repair the unit. My ten year old son saved to purchase the ipod to listen to audio books. He is legally blind and it was becoming very difficult to burn CDs to listen to the books, so he purchased the ipod. While the ipod did accidently fall once from his hand at table height, it was not abused...

iPod Mini 6GB
Strengths: Compact size, great battery life, looks great in silver
Weakness: No photo or video capability
Received this as a gift. It's all I expected and more. Functionally it's the same as all non-photo or video iPods. I refer the brushed aluminum case to the white on standard iPods. It's more durable and less prone to scratching. 6GB modelis great value relative to Nano if you don't care about color and photo capability. May be hard to find as Apple is no longer manufacturing this model.
