More Advantages Of The Ipod

Writen by Mia LeCron

--> Multiple Language Supports

Thinking of buying an iPod and sending it to a relative or friend overseas? If so, then you might be concerned about the menu, and the fact that it's in English. Well, worry no more!

Actually, initial versions of the iPod already offered 14 different languages. Now, especially since sales of the iPod have boomed worldwide, latest generation versions offer more than twice as many languages, including:

 Czech
 Danish
 Dutch
 English
 Finnish
 French
 German
 Greek
 Hungarian
 Italian
 Japanese
 Korean
 Norwegian
 Polish
 Portuguese
 Russian
 Simplified Chinese
 Spanish
 Swedish
 Traditional Chinese
 Turkish

Also, for song information only, the iPod menu supports:

 Bulgarian
 Croatian
 Romanian
 Serbian
 Slovak
 Slovenian
 Ukrainian

--> It Knows when You're Listening…

Speaking of versatility, one advantage that the iPod has it that it can sense whether headphones are being used or not. If you're listening to music and you pull the headphone jack out of its port, the iPod will pause.

But remember that if you re re-attach the headphones, the music will not play by itself, you'd have to do that manually.

However, if you've set your iPod to sleep mode or turned off, plugging in the headphones will get the song to play again.

--> Get Ready for the iPod Photo!

So the iPod offers you music, educational tools, and now photo display! Apple released the iPod photo in early 2005. The portable music player now has a color screen to allow users to display photos and album art.

The iPod photo can send photos to a television via a composite or S-video cable.

The iPod photo can hold 30,000 photos, but it costs "an arm and a leg" according to some consumers. Rumors have it however that as soon as it's picked up and given a look-see, the temptation to buy one gets very, very strong. So beware!
