…everytime I really NEEDED my iPod the device crashed! I buy this thing (60 gb photo) a couple of months ago for my long flight to japan. And about 2 hours before the takeoff my iPod only showed my a white screen, and doesn´t react on any key… the WHOLE flight!

I begin to hate this device, i never ever aspect such an ugly and unstable product from a vendor like apple where everything should work “like a charm” especially when it has only 6 keys!
